Paul... the last thing you want is for the government to get involved. You can't expect that they will take this issue seriously when they find out what kind of content you are talking about. Just imagine that little 'O Baptist Lady really getting concerned because someone ripped off your naked girl pictures.

Not only that... What you cited is a US law... and all nations would be covered under it's provisions due to the Berne Convention. But... there have been a number of recent splits and non-cooperation regarding other copyright issues in the last couple years that leads me to believe that international copyright protection is just a token slogan.

Personally, content thieft reported to the hosting company will get you a much faster response.

I had content stolen last month... and I contacted the host in Dallas, they contacted the site that had my material, and the issue was solved in one day.

Do you think the Federal Government is going to be able to get those kinds of results?

Keep up the good work
