Google Updates Its Search Algorithm: Will Start Punishing Sites With Too Many DMCA Takedown Notices
 

Interesting move from the big G, this way you can eliminate your competitor

Deja vu
Pretty sure another thread about this topic

just saw it on TC what was posted 2 hrs ago

If they go through with this, I strongly urge all non-pirates to DMCA the FUCK out of every tube out there.

Bombs away.

yeah this is going to be interesting :thumbsup

This is how it should be. Not how it is now.

I totally agree, now its pretty useless

will this take tubes down on results... I doubt it...

I always cc Google on a DMCA. I was never sure if it had an affect but figured it couldn't hurt.

I thought the exact same thing this morning - I've started sweeping my first target to help RYC identify the content to just pummel them daily with DMCA's. Working on a list for Takedown too since I know the content for 6 studios like the back of my hand.

From the article:

"Most of these notices in the last 30 days concerned content owned by RIAA members, followed by Microsoft, a group called Froytal Services Ltd. and NBC Universal."


Froytal = Manwin as far as I know. At least our checks from Juggcash come under that company name. So if I am reading this properly, they are DMCAing a lot of fucking content.

Are you filling out this form for every DMCA you send out?

Every tube, torrent, filelocker, porn board etc gets their own DMCA sent, but also sent to Google via this form.

But its not April 1st ?

Thankfully Google will never punish sites that have adverts above the fold! Imagine if THAT ever happened? GFY would dead! The internet is about family friendly sites like Youtube. Thank "Goodness" Google keeps the internet clean for families, and dominates everything you pussies look at.

Wait! Here's the REAL youtube:

Well with having a wide rang of brands in their portfolio they also should suffer a lot from piracy so it's not that strange

is this the first second third fourth or fifth thread about this?

Don't know who was first. Saw the article yesterday after it was posted on Techcrunch and shared it here

So Google is going to kill YouTube?

Yup, just crazy that they are technically #3. If you click through on the article, it actually is linked to a transparency report in Google that shows your the # of requests. It looks like the # is so high due to Degban Ltd submitting DMCAs on their behalf. Degban also is doing this for some other really big sites - RK, BangBros, DDF, etc.

taking down tubes? i was thinking this would effect torrent sites the most, no?

would be nice because if you google any scene name the first ~2 pages are reserved by torrent sites

yeah that are some high volume DMCA stats :D

Degban is #1 in submitting DMCAs
1,010,225 in the past month

Cool thing about this transparency report is that you can see which domains are reported

Let's see what their new rules bring. From what I can see in the report is that there are more DMCA reports for torrents as for tubes

:2 cents:

Doubt it very much. It's now a culture online to get it free rather than pay for it. So surfers on Google will find they have to pay, go back to Google and browse down till they find a free source.

Won't harm though.

Paul's absolutely right :eek7

Someone's already come up with a customised google search that ONLY includes the top 50 "offenders" from google's DMCA reports. In other words, it will only show pirate sites as results. Not that the average joe would probably be aware of this tool, of course...

Has he ever been wrong?

I know it's kinda freaky how I keep doing this. I think it could be a conspiracy. :1orglaugh
