They KNOW everything uploaded to their servers is illegal and they're disgustingly blatant about it. You can't be more blatant than OWNING illegal file sharing forums, (cough, Oron buying pornbb and who knows what else).
My guess is, they are going to review where an affiliate's traffic comes from and terminate any accounts that derive traffic from mainstream movie and music sites.
I think they honestly feel adult copyright holders are spineless.
Hell, they might be right if they end up being one of the few standing after all the other highly incentivized file sharing networks fall.
Maybe MU will raise from the dead and only do adult once they see no one in the adult industry is going to stop them.
If a site existed that contained full length mainstream movies and music, (just like adult tube sites do on a massive scale) how long do you think they would get away with it?
Other than the fact one is copyrighted adult material and the other is the ladder, there would only be one difference. One will stay online indefinitely while the other would be shutdown within 6 months.Last edited by NetHorse; 01-23-2012, 11:43 PM.┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐

Oron bought PORNBB, and they did not put a whole lot of effort in trying to hide the fact.

I hope you're right man. Other than taking 1 minute to send a DMCA complaint I haven't seen it though.man, once there was wild west and you can shoot anyone there. i mean, they bought pornbb but they didnt knew that problems like megaupload have not may come. times are changing, and i believe and i hope that now when adult business see that fighting piracy is not impossible, someone will take the action too and now or later problems will come to the rest. lets hope, and have luck everyone
Hell, Epassporte and Chris Mallick stole 10s of millions from people in this industry and the guy is just taking vacations in his private jet laughing. No one did anything other than post a website with a couple pictures and last known address.┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐

How would you want to take down Oron? By contacting PayPal?
That won't get you too far. PayPal have profited from Oron for years.
Anyone want to take down PayPal?
)
Anyone doing an investigation on Oron and the other file-sharing services? Where to post information?Comment
-
AFAIK. The owners of oron are smart enough. They ban all affiliates who uploads Hollywood movies, because they don't want to fuck with a big boys. However they don't ban those who upload porn only. They know - nobody will sue their asses for it. In two words: Hollywood content and warez are forbidden, porn is ok. This simple policy makes them almost invulnerable.Last edited by just a punk; 01-24-2012, 01:31 AM.Obey the CowgodComment

Yup, contacting paypal is not a good way to go about it. You would have to threaten Paypal with something significant for them to give up $100s of thousands in processing fees.
Paypal actually suspended processing with Oron for a couple weeks, my bet is that Oron made some sort of deal, (maybe higher processing fees) to get their account back.
To take Oron down, you would need to gather evidence of them directly profiting off copyrighted works hosted on their server. I'm sure there is PLENTY of evidence of them acquiring pornbb, not to mention, I have my suspicions that they're buying off major uploaders to use their service, (anyone can contact me via ICQ for that information).
I think there is more than enough information to take them down, that's not the problem. Who is willing to spend a couple hours a day gathering evidence and contacting local district attorneys? Who is willing to spend the money to hire attorneys and go after them?
Only a couple major producers. Which in the grand scheme of things, is a risk these adult file sharing networks and tube sites are willing to take. They pretty much took over an entire industry, and less than 1% of content owners actually stood up and did something beyond sending a fucking DMCA complaint. Maybe they make $100 million and pay a $3-4 million settlement to one or two content producers that actually do something about it.
People in this industry are weak in general. Maybe it's because they're afraid to work with the law or maybe it's because they're just plain fucking lazy.
The whole epass situation is classic example of it. How many people who got ripped off do you think filled out a simple IC3 complaint form and followed up on it? My guess is significantly less than 1%. How many people do you think contacted the local district attorney where Chris Mallick resides? Probably no one.
Instead they spent more time posting pictures of the guy's fucking family on GFY. As if that's constructive or going to produce any positive results.┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐

I have it on good authority that a Paypal representative and their legal team provided evidence to the Grand Jury about MegaUpload long before indictment was unsealed and the raids occurred. The conclusion that can be drawn from this is that the prosecutors wanted Paypal to act business as usual so as not to jeopardize any action pending.
If there is any chance that Oron is currently being investigated then Paypal may continue processing so as not to tip them off about pending prosecutions.
I would suggest every report to Paypal about Oron is beneficial, however don't be surprised if action isn't immediate should other things be afoot to deal with them.Comment

That's true, Paypal will undoubtedly cooperate with any ongoing investigation while acting as if it's business as usual. Who knows if there is any investigation being led against Oron though. Since they deal significantly with adult, my guess is no.I have it on good authority that a Paypal representative and their legal team provided evidence to the Grand Jury about MegaUpload long before indictment was unsealed and the raids occurred.

I just don't understand one thing however... They openly host porn, including illegal one (e.g. there are many scat and bestiality pirate boards where all the content is stored at oron). Does PayPal and VISA/MC consider it's normal to process scat and bestiality content (doesn't matter copyright or stolen)?
Did somebody try to get an answer from PayPal and VISA/MC on that? Are they now ok with such sort of content?Obey the CowgodComment
-
Quite likely there isn't.
I can't imagine prosecutors would want to handle more than one big prosecution like this at a time. I think MegaUpload is very much a test case.
However I was just pointing out one possibility why action may seem to be slow.Comment

Well the whole file locker case is in the spotlight now. Big companies especially don't like bad publicity that could possibly hurt their image. So now is the time to put on pressure.I love big boobs.Comment

It's a technicality that all these file-sharing networks survive on. They aren't selling access to pornography, they're selling access to a service, the content uploaded using said service is the responsibility of the uploader. All Paypal cares about is what's outlined in the terms of use for the service they're selling.I just don't understand one thing however...

It's all just a huge joke, if you carefully read their TOS they don't allow adult content at all.Originally posted by Oron's TOS1 Illegality/Adult Content
Oron.com neither sanctions nor permits site content or the transmission of data that contains illegal or obscene material and pornography or fosters or promotes illegal activity, including but not limited to, gambling, the offering for sale of illegal weapons, and the promotion or publication of any material that may violate hate crimes legislation.

your content is probably on pornbb forum as wellI went to Oron.com contact page as well... I sent them a simple message including a large list of files that belong to me. I told them that if they did not remove these links and content that I would go to paypal and let them know.
It seems that all of my files that are or were hosted at oron.com have been removed. I believe that they did a blanket sweep and banned the two users that were posting the shit out of my stuff.

Dear ORON partners,
It is that time of the year when we perform an annual review of all our professional account holders. This year is special however, because ORON has grown so much and we are now faced with quite a large number of affiliates to check and see if their accounts are up to date and in compliance with ORON terms.
We have introduced a different review protocol for this year. What this means for you is that for a short time all accounts will be placed on temporary hold and that hold is going to be released when your account has been checked and approved. We may request a contact from you so please, if you do receive such a request contact us without hesitation.
While your account is being reviewed the access to your stats and balance will be temporary suspended, please keep in mind that all stats will still be calculated and kept up to date. The access to stats will be granted to accounts that have passed our review.
If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know.
Sincerely,
ORON Team
Simples. just start spreading rumours that the review is actually a FBI cover and the uploaders are being monitored for future stings. also start rumours about oron about to do a shut and run with the money while the "accounts are being checked"!

There is if enough content owners step up. Trust me, get 500 calls from content owners claiming theft SOMEONE will DO SOMETHING.
Just like if the DA where Chris Mallick resides got hundreds of calls and hundreds of IC3 forums were filed..Not the case though, we are all pushovers. ha ha.
Get a bunch of forum members to send anonymous emails to paypal, they'll end up in a junk folder somewhere. Complete waste of time.Last edited by NetHorse; 01-24-2012, 09:48 AM.┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐

That's why I'm surprised the other sites are shitting themselves so badly; it's probably the 'safest' time for them, because until MU is concluded I doubt the Feds could or would do anything with any other site. Especially as, AFAIK, the MU bust relied on an informant within MU supplying inside information, which is unlikely to be the case at any other site. It's not like the Feds had nothing better to do the other day and decided to start fucking up a file locker every week.
The MU case will drag on for years. Until that time I would say there's no chance that another file locker would even get investigated, let alone busted, unless they did something egregiously stupid.
That one's probably true anyway. I think the lockers who have made a boatload of money will take all this as a sign to get out. Other sites might hope to mop up the traffic from dead sites and will get back to business as usual in a month or two, and there must surely people looking at what Kim Dotcom made, rather than his potential jail time, and thinking it's worth a shot to start their own file share site.Comment

Investigation and prosecution are the two different things. FBI or whatever other agency team that conducted investigation is now finished and their only time spent on megaupload case from now on will be to testify in court, which is not much in terms of man-hours.
Their main resources are obviously free now and they must be looking for the next "victim". Filehosts closing left and right and running into the sunset are obviously doing the right thing to save themselves from 50 years long vacations at warm and hospitable Uncle Sam Inn. Agencies are unlikely to spend tax dollars to beat the dead horse that sites like fileserve or filesonic are now, they're aiming their guns at whatever stupid fuck didn't get the message yet..
