No, I'm saying impose a lifetime ban on the original uploader. If they knew unequivocally that the very least consequence of their actions would be a lifetime ban from the site whose content they uploaded, plus maybe the same treatment from a whole slew of other sites once they have been identified and blacklisted, then they may decide it's simply not worth all the kudos from a bunch of faceless, zitty gimps online or wherever and decide not to do it. Then there's the aspect of damages...before a customer can join a site and download content, they should have to agree to a clause whereby if proven to have uploaded content, they pay a fixed fee for each instance of it being illegally downloaded. If 100 people download your uploaded clip off of Rapidshare, and you're liable for, say, $100 for each download, then things can get pretty costly pretty quick.



I'm not exactly sure if you read my first post, but if you think getting rid of youporn will solve your problems you obviously have no idea what your up against. Banning the uploaders from these sites will do nothing but force them to another site or have them change their method of supply.

And maybe this thing about paying a fixed fee for each instance of illegal downloading helps you sleep better at night, but that's just as hopeless as the guys that decided to buy napster and start charging for every download made. It's not happening pal because your problems are not as simple as a webpage with streaming pr0n.

If an industry blacklist is created, they'll soon run out of sites to join, and move on to filesharing other stuff that's not porn.



You've got to be kidding me. Do you honestly think it's as simple as that? "Damn, I've been blacklisted from youporn and megaupload, guess I'll just stick to mp3s." Good one mate. Enjoy Christmas.
