Can someone explain to me, in layman's terms. why sites like, say, PornBB, PlanetSuzy and Perved deliberately set up a site for sharing copyrighted material, yet are immune to any action against them? The same with MegaUpload, Hotfile and Rapidshare, why is there not a clause saying a file cannot contain anything that is copyrighted? I'm in the publishing world and if anyone as much as borrows a sentence out of a book without permission they are jumped on and compensation has to be paid.
How come no-one fights back against these sites and put out malicious rumours about them? Like their files contain malware, their pop-ups download trojans. I'd rip their heads off if they were doing this to me. Surely if word gets around then the advertisers they attract would steer clear.
It's like when I've sent links of shared material to a model, it can take days and weeks for it to be removed, that's ridiculous that they go about doing that at their leisure, without fear of getting their balls tweaked!
