There are two distinct issues with tubes and many people confuse the two issues, which is not helpful; these are free porn and piracy.

If tubes are legally publishing content that's either licensed, owned or freely given to tubes by programs wanting publicity then that's fine. Many of the larger tubes own or license a whole lot of content. Nothing we can do about that, they're not breaking any laws by publishing licensed content and making it available for free.

If tubes are pirating content then we are interested in that and would encourage rights holders to send us copies of all their DMCA notices to [email protected]

As of now, we receive very few infringement reports about tubes, most of the infringement reports we receive relate to file lockers, forums, torrents and other websites.

I ask this cause I think webcam revenue masters have known for a long time now they earnings of a tube is not for the paysites, but for the live cam sites they advertise on the side. Knowing AWE is kicking balls with their rankings thanks to tubes, and this has indirect hurt a lot of veteran revenue masters
If you have evidence of infringement by any site then let us know. Right now my main gripe with AWE is that they support piracy websites of all sorts, often forums and blogs. We intend to take them to task over this.
