Nothing can be illegally downloaded unless it is first uploaded. Producers, both in porn and mainstream, need to focus their efforts away from the downloaders and onto the uploaders. Once you've stopped the uploaders, then there will be no downloaders. Killergram apparently have some sort of unique user ID/content-tagging system in play, but I have no idea whether this is a mere bluff or actually true. I'm currently working on a content-tagging method of my own, so I know it to be possible, but I have no idea whether the Killergram system (if real) works along the same lines as what I have devised. My method is labour-intensive, but undetectable, and applicable to a variety of file types such as jpegs, pdfs, mpegs, mp3s, etc.




This was actually attempted by Fox. I believe 4 or 5 years ago, they found out someone working at one of their offices was a source for a lot of screeners showing up online. So they added a digital stamp to every screener unique to who was getting it (actors, producers, directors) as well as unique to the plant it came from.

A girl was sending these DVDs to some guy in New York (express mail). This guy would then compress the DVD and send it to a guy in Germany who then put it up on the web via a site in Sweden. Sweden happens to have l33t speeds (10mbit to 100mbit)so it's express packaged again but more importantly, sending it to Europe was basically like sending your shit to the future- so you woke up and a film that just got released in theaters a few hours ago is already up online.

I don't remember exactly why this chick wasn't arrested, but she started working for another company owned by FOX for a while before getting her own show- ironically about exposing stuff that's online- like the newest crazes. It's more or less a trade magazine TV show for the internet. This should be clear proof for you: it's not what you know but who you know.

One thing I found really cute was that the group she was involved in actually thanked everyone who helped "work on" each release they did. They'd give each other accolades and even shout-out their family and friends, and use l33t speak to acknowledge more shit they were working on.

Anyhoo, that whole digital stamping didn't really work. Infact, you'd be surprised how blu-ray and HD media has made it easier to go around the whole digital stamp measures. What most of these people don't realize is that tubesites and torrent sites are just filtered down versions of where the real problem lies. The people uploading porn to a tubesites download this from some other place first- hence the variety in kwality. Going after these sites is really like going after the petty drug dealer on a bike. The real problem on your hands are a small group of people that have banded together to sell servers for the soul purpose of "sharing". The kicker: there are close to 300 of these "small groups".

And to the person who suggested DDoS their server: No. Nothing would be more frowned upon than a legitimate industry resorting to such childish activity because nobody called the waaaambulance.


BTW: anyone notice at the very bottom of XPT it says:
