I'd like to bust this myth wide open.

Nobody who says tubes are the biggest problem can back it up with statistics.

We ask rights holders to send us copies of their DMCA notices, I've repeated it many many times in several threads as have others, it's easy send copies of DMCA notices to [email protected]

Of the thousand or so we currently receive a day, just under 5% relate to tubes. Torrents and file lockers make up the lions share, followed by forums, self hosted websites and blogs.

We have explained many times why we started with file lockers, based on what we know to be true now it was the right choice to start with. We have also made it clear we are expanding our efforts, this is why we are asking rights holders to become represented.

Without rights holders standing up and being counted piracy will just continue, we have shown that we have the dedication and tenacity to go after pirates in a comprehensive, methodical and effective manner. With more rights holders on board we will be able to do more and more.

However , helterskelter808, if you can back up your claims with facts I'd be glad to hear them. I really do wonder where a person who has not contributed to our efforts, in any way shape or form, has the standing to be able to dictate to a non profit, volunteer based effort what they should be doing.
