Well that settles it, I'm going to do everything in my power to move all my servers that I work with over to Mojo Host.

The hard thing as a tube owner is everyone's personal definition of 'legal'. Some people just blanket claim all tubes are illegal and evil, some go as far as if you respond to DMCA's then its legal ... the ground seems to shift on this one.

I host our tube with mojohost, and while we are pretty sure we aren't the type of tube they are talking about, when a company takes an anti-tube stand ... the good tend to be lumped in with the bad.

Also to address another point regarding so many tubes selling. Yep many are, but you have to be a bloody idiot to allow 20 min videos and still expect to make lots of money. Tubes can produce good profitable traffic just like tgps, mgps, etc etc, but you gotta use some common sense. Also, with the sheer number of sponsors contacting us wanting to get their promo content and clips on our tube ... there is no reason you would ever need to use stolen content or turn a blind eye to it .... it just doesn't make sense.

Hey,

what's up? you can't get some dialog open on something you brought up? you do the same all the time and I mean ALL the time.

Just trying to understand what you are announcing that is ALL.

anyhow cheers! :thumbsup

did you even read my comment? I guess not.

go back and read it... it says ALL (hosting companies) of us already doing this and my question to Brad was is he doing something new... that is all.

instead of getting angry he could explain what is he doing new so we can maybe.... learn?

thx for the info....

You are making excellent decisions with your site as are a silent majority of other people out there. Keep on tubing! :)

Brad

great move

There is no shifting ground here, you either own a license to use the content, or have the copyright owner's permission to use the content, or you don't.

Just because DMCA allows you to remove copyright infringing material without having to pay a fine or damages to the copyright holder does not mean that stealing their content and then taking it down when they catch you is "legal"

2 days into the official announcement. Is there any data yet?

milan, are you already doing this? is webair? is prohosters? Have you read the AUPs of the hosting companies that host the tubes? It's just verbiage in most cases because we all know hosts make exceptions or look the other way. What I get from this is that Brad / MojoHost isn't looking the other way and doesn't want to be the host you use if you plan on running an illegal tube site.

A little bit. Mostly it's been clients contacting me that have tube sites with either sponsor content and/or genuine user submitted stuff. I have not as of yet come across any tube sites that need to go or change YET. I have actually heard back from a few dozen clients after making the announcement for these various clarifications and questions they have had and only one of them thought it was a bad idea but was not himself hosting any such tube site on my network.

What a great group of clients! :)

Brad

Looks like it may have worked. I don't see that site selling tube traffic any longer and someone was worried enough that they got those threads pulled from all the boards on the web.

good, but 60 days? Give them 1 week max

Brujah, yes we do but you raised a good point, you will be surprised how many accounts are getting canceled every months do to AUP violation.

AUP was really started being enforced during the SPAM surge. SPAMHAUS did a great job educating ISP's (by some extreme methods) on enforcing it.

Bump for the weekend warriors :thumbsup

Brad

Congrats on a bold move. Hopefully others will follow. :thumbsup

Congrats!

A mile away is where I saw this coming from....

"I cannot self-terminate."

Wow, interesting read, guess someone's policy on hosting illegal tube sites changed if it's true. It will be interesting to watch it play out and hear both sides before making judgement.

Brad, you're fag.

And your hosting sucks anyway.

I don't see anyone possibly giving a fuck.

ROFL LMAO! What an idiot.


This was a publicity BRO thread from the get go.

Brad is a fucking fag.
