Where is the point of notifying Steve if he can do this "in accordance with DMCA" all day long, he is not PROTECTED by DMCA though.. so who cares if he would remove the content _HE_ clearly stated he added himself."Think about it a little more and you'll agree with me, because you're smart and I'm right."

No it doesn't genius. The content was already uploaded to another source, and he posted links to it on his board. The most these idiots can do is waste money and try and tie him up in court, but the fact tht he is in Amsterdam means they can only bend over, spread their cheeks, and take it in the ass. Please don't assume you have a fucking clue how this works until you have been through one of these cases, which i recently have. You are talking out your ass and speculating. He can simply ignore whatever legal action is taken and go on with his life.Comment

Just because you like to sue people dosn't mean you know dick about the law. As long as he isn't hosting the content you can't do shit. You can waste money and have your attorneys blow smoke up your ass but in the end all you will have is a stack of attorney bills. If you don't believe me try it and see where that gets you.Comment

If he could do anything he would've already. The fact that he sat on here and threatened shows that he knew he had dick and was so pissed he had to flex his nuts. I know 100 sites off the top of my head that have links to his content, and he can't do shit. The funny thing is I was an affiliate of his once, and maybe you should ask him about his own bullshit practices.Comment

DMCA only applies to where the content is hosted and it is not on his server. Good luck getting the megarotics of the world to listen to you wannabe lawyers.Comment

He embeds the videos... BIG difference. It does not matter where it is hosted, its ON his site, and its SELECTED by him, he can not claim that its user submitted content, thus he is not protected.
And on top of that, the least he needs is 2257 docs...
Although we will have to see what the DOJ says to some comments before we are sure of that I guess...Last edited by Nathan; 07-25-2007, 11:26 PM."Think about it a little more and you'll agree with me, because you're smart and I'm right."

Ahh, Amsterdam, didn't see that, how do you know? 2257 of course does not apply then... the rest is still a problem, even in the Netherlands."Think about it a little more and you'll agree with me, because you're smart and I'm right."

If you honestly believe that then all I can say is feel free to sue and see where that gets you. I am talking from experience when i say if it is not on his server then you have nothing, especially because he is not in the US. If you had anything the millions of sites that do the same thing would be taken down, and you would all be living fat off of the damages.He does not just link to them

If this is the case, would make for a big loophole in the law... I can hardly beleive it though...If you honestly believe that then all I can say is feel free to sue and see where that gets you.

I wonder if they think the same way for 2257, which I highly doubt though...
But as I said, I doubt they really think this way for DCMA either..."Think about it a little more and you'll agree with me, because you're smart and I'm right."

I know I'm coming off as an asshole here, but the sponsors that didn't give the first shit about their affiliates interests are now seeing what happens when those affiliates decide to strike back. So it is ok for Steve Lightspeed to profit off of stolen content traffic, which he absolutely does, but not ok for the rest of us? Bullshit!Comment

Thats why the biggest torrentsites are blocking dutch trafic. They are getting closed down also. But u can not stop it now. The only way to stop it is in your own hands dont pay them. If they cant pay their bills they will stop.
And make a club that searches for this and tries to block them. Most of the times a good email or letter wil be sufficient.ICQ: 48518296Comment

But they will always be able to pay their bills, because the Steve Lightspeed hypocrites of the world will bitch about their content being stolen but will gladly profit off of traffic from other's stolen content. They are talking out both sides of their mouth.Thats why the biggest torrentsites are blocking dutch trafic. They are getting closed down also. But u can not stop it now.

What i don't get is there not somebody at the sponsers checking if the page is good for them. When he submitted somebody had to watch the site right ?ICQ: 48518296Comment

They know exactly where the traffic is coming from, and it is a no lose situation for them. The can profit off of it until they are called out on it, then they can feign ignorance and seize the affiliates money and be lauded as heroes when they do. They are fucking scum, and even though this kid is an arrogant punk he is not in the wrong.Comment

No u are right why they give away movie files of 100MB away in the partner area if u can not use it ?They know exactly where the traffic is coming from, and it is a no lose situation for them.
