Altheon: the action recommended to stop hotlinkers (the basic one) means that I must also limit my business by not allowing google or yahoo image bots onto my sites. That means I lose traffic and exposure.
Even if the door is unlocked, you are still a thief when you walk in and steal something. Paying someone to steal something isn't exactly a legal business. AVN and SugarDVD are smart... let's see if others follow. Alex PS: Hopefully adbrite, pud, and the avn people will be smart enough to filter off ALL of the fusker sites... this is starting to make me think of "cancelling" a spammer's account. |

However, I would think it better if ami arranged with the program to first send those hits to a "account closed because he is a thief" page, with a "click here to continue on for DVDs" link. Alex |

Hiya RawAlex,
Not banners - bottom text link goes to SugarDVDs, seems to be the case on all their pages? |
2005-03-25, 05:13 PM | #82 |

Yes, the text link does - but that is only because sugardvd doesn't control the html on the page (not like adbrite, which controls the content). Just like any other sponsor you have can't pull a banner even if they close your account.

I'm beginning to believe that fusker.lewww was just a cookie tossed our way with hopes of appeasing us. AVN/Adbrite has a long way to go. They really need to start digging in and doing what's right for their advertisers.

its just a matter of kicking through, finding the TOS, notifying them. I've done it with perhaps 15 different affiliate programs, using the form letter I wrote earlier, with one response so far. It is Easter weekend, so, I suspect Monday or Tuesday I'll be getting a few emails.

I don't understand how sites like fusker and boobdex manage to stay online. Whenever they violate someone's copyright, that person can send a DMCA notice to say.. fuskers ISP and that ISP's ISP. Even if they promptly remove the illegal content and file a counter-notice, the law requires that the ISP take them down for ten business days. It seems like they'd be down just about all the time since their whole business model is based on violating copyrights. Are they hosted in countries that don't care about copyright law?

A DCMA complaint needs to come from the copyright holder -- or an authorized agent. That itself becomes difficult. I can look at some content and say, hey, I know that is copyrighted, but, how do you find the copyright holder? You end up finding the original site that is being hotlinked, locate the gallery, guess whether that gallery is content that the webmaster paid for or is sponsor provided content.
But, you are right, it is the right way to do it -- and requires the vigilence of someone that has been hotlinked that can file that paperwork. I've been documenting it for a few clients so that they can file. It will be interesting.

I also hope that sugardvd figures out how to put up an "account died" message before their site, so that people know they are coming from a scumbag. Alex |

But, I also think that it adds extra sting to the wounds of a terminated webmaster when they continue to accept that traffic and make money off of it. Ask any webmaster that was terminated for fraud which they would hate more.... then lets do that.

I received this from Adam of Sexsearch Thanks for the heads up. I actually just heard of them yesterday because they were hotlinking to all of our hosted galleries. The ads were coming from a campaign w/ adbrite. I told the salesperson contact them to pull that campaign. So, no need for the new thread coming up |

Umm, Jim... interesting, considering that these things don't click through adbrite's system...
they go through: http://best-adult-dating.com/?src=fuskerleww Me thinks that sexsearch has more than one path back to our fusker buddies. Alex |
