It's simple, despite what myth and urban legend has spawned, cold hard numbers show that a site like PlanetSuzy.org is more harmful than xhamster.com in both the quantity of infringing content requested to be removed by rights holders and the economic impact of the piracy.

I posted a comparison of PlanetSuzy and XHamster which you can read here.

Forums and File Lockers are a much larger problem than tubes, by an order of magnitude so great that the numbers are just mind blowing.

When I started working against file lockers I had only basic models of where I thought the worst piracy was, now my models are more sophisticated I am very confident in saying that the problem of tubes is over-stated my most people - however they are still an issue that we have to address and we will over time.
