Interesting Story Aussie Porn Barons

http://www.theage.com.au/technology/...017-1ltam.html

this is odd though:

"The brothers' involvement with porn dates back to the late 1990s when their New Zealand company C.M.R. Productions - trading as Cosmo Media Online - hosted websites such as passwordhq.com, which promised customers access to paid-content porn sites via ''hacked'' passwords. They appear to have divested most of those domain names, though they still control wildpass.com, through an entity called Callstar Enterprises, which is based in Cyprus.

According to one former employee of the brothers, much of their operation relocated to Cyprus some years ago. ''They basically moved it there to avoid scrutiny,'' the former employee said.

'In fact, they moved the operations to London then back to Australia and then to Cyprus.''

An information page for Callstar reveals it to be the parent of 68 pornographic sites with clear connections to the Claphams or parties closely associated with them. A second company, Marson Investments, is the parent of another 49.

A third company, Ramson Productions, with an address in Kings Cross, London, is the parent entity for a number of ''customer support'' operations, to which customers' billing inquiries are directed. These sites show no signs of being associated with the porn industry, featuring bland text, respectable corporate imagery and photos of smiling and fully clothed call-centre workers. However, their registration details ultimately link them to the Cyprus operations of the Claphams and their associates."

and wildpass.com is part of mediarevenue?
