Your arrogance will get you nowhere. You may think you're better than others, more "adapted", but you'll end up in the same boat as everyone else. Your videos that you think are not overexposed and boring will quickly get there after your full site rip will sit at tbp for a month or two and you can't do shit about it because cock smokers do not even respond to DMCAs.

That's why ethics exist, for example in the form of standards and best practices that our joke of an industry is profoundly lacking. Because when ethics do not exists, in the end of the day everyone loses.
i am talking hypothetically, not about my content btw... (which i can already find on PB)

but it is possible to develop something that cannot be stolen and uploaded and that's what i am talking about

and if i had that - and it would be something that turns freeloaders into paying customers - i would be an idiot if i sat back and watch others make money on there.

trust me, as content producer i really dislike torrents, p2p and so on. and i have never downloaded a single byte from Pirate Bay.

But the world evolves and as long the site exists and it's not illegal to advertise on there, someone will do it.
