    Rant Pornhub wants to own the rights to my content and take my rights away

    so PornHub, why would I want you to own my content & give me no permissions to reproduce my content?



    anyone else having this problem?

    Is this legal? Why would I give my content away & have no rights for my own content?

        Not sure if that would work as an assignment of copyright under the various electronic signature laws around the world... but I wouldnt want to be arguing that is doesnt...

          Is it for real? Innovative way to "protect your content".

            But.. Those are amateur videos, like cell phone videos, that wouldn't legally be allowed normally because of 2257 and other things that individuals aren't going to be doing.

            I don't agree with it, though...

                Choose a different type of producer account instead of Amateur Payment Program. Maybe try content partner.

                    yeah, been meaning to change it to the partnership program. I take it this doesn't ask for this copyright?

                          It looks like a limited assignment of copyright. (Partial assignment?)
                          It applies to free sites only, sites of Pornhub's kind -- other tubes ...

                          ''on any free user-generated sites or platforms'' estoppel by agreement of some consideration. The action of uploading in agreement with the new terms would create an estoppel of barring the use the uploaded content ''on any free user-generated sites or platforms''.

                          You are not transferring any ownership of the content only agreeing to Pornhub's exclusive use ''on any free user-generated sites or platforms''.

                          What exactly ''on any free user-generated sites or platforms'' means is rather vague -- it may not be very binding. For example, if you had your own forum as part of your business -- you may not not be able to use that content only verbatim in its entirety -- big loophole that you might be able drive a truck through.

                          That is the way I see the intention -- without going into Pornhub's rational in the matter.

                              but as many users, I post my clips and partial movies if not full on this tube and others like xhamster, and already done. I'm certainly not going to remove any from other tubes.

                                  Nobody is forcing people to participate in this program.

                                  I don't see a problem with this. They're offering a free DMCA service and protecting your content.

                                  You do realise that if you make two versions of one video and one is on Pornhub and the other is on XHamster then there won't be an issue ?

                                        adapt or die? does it fit here?

                                        Sure I think those thieves should have the legal right to own the content posted on their mostly illegal site

                                          I think they will be able to achieve more with the content than you will, so just let them have it.

                                                That is actually happening already, even in mainstream.

                                                  Not understanding what they're saying


                                                  Pornhub's only realistic recourse is to cancel your account, not pay you and they might have established a right to the content and its use if this agreement (stipulation) is breached.


                                                  It's a real POS piece work but there may be a real ulterior motive here.

                                                      I can understand if maybe, Gary & Nathalie were going to provide them content in exchange for traffic to their site TEMPORARILY, but this wording is PERMANENT. What if no traffic is provided or if the deal just doesn't work out? Gary & Nathalie should then be able to end this deal, re-gain their rights to their content, and look for someone new to work with, no?

                                                        A serial thief is going to send DCMAs to sites where the owner of the content has uploaded it. Could it be more wrong?

                                                        Also, how do they know the person submitting the content is the owner?

                                                          I don't see a problem with this. They're offering a free DMCA service and protecting your content.

                                                          You do realise that if you make two versions of one video and one is on Pornhub and the other is on XHamster then there won't be an issue ?
                                                          after speaking with Brett from PornHub, seems the above is the case. PH are simply offering DMCA especially to models uploading specifically to PH, scanning the top 50 sites and issuing the DMCA if need

If you are someone that is already uploading your content to other free platforms this program is obviously not right for you. It is completely optional if you want to take advantage of this new service if you decline nothing changes.
