I?m a small content producer so that?s about all I can do. I can?t afford to take these lockers to court and they know that.

When I do find the pirates and suspend their accounts, I haven?t noticed any increase in sales. I thought like you and figured dead links would bring in sales. And them not posting for a couple of weeks would bring in more sales. But I haven?t seen it and I?ve been playing this game with pirates for a couple of years now. Those that download from filelockers know the pirates will produce what they want. They know the pirate will just use another stolen CC and rip the site again. Because pirates get paid big money stealing your content and posting it on boards. Even more than some of us small producers get paid.
Try replacing the clips that were taken down with well branded versions you control that have strong marketing bumpers. If you are making the effort to counter-attack then you might as well go on the offensive a little too. Even better if you set up a specific domain too so that you can track the type ins better.

Make the pirate a privateer just like the English, Spanish, and French did to each other back in the day out on the high seas in the 1600s. Pretty soon you will be able to give out free peg legs and parrots to the most swarthy.
