MPAA Targets Fileserve, MediaFire, Wupload, Putlocker and Depositfiles

It is no secret that the MPAA was a main facilitators of the criminal investigation against Megaupload. But while the movie studios have praised the actions of the US Government, they are not satisfied yet. Paramount Pictures’ vice president for worldwide content protection identified Fileserve, MediaFire, Wupload, Putlocker and Depositfiles as prime targets that should be shuttered next.

The file-hosting business has been in a permanent state of chaos since the Megaupload shutdown in January. Many sites were quick to remove their affiliate programs and some went as far as blocking visitors from the US entirely.

It’s clear that site owners are concerned that their business might become a target, and if it’s up to the major movie studios this fear is justified. “We continue to make criminal referrals,” Paramount Pictures’ Alfred Perry said during the On Copyright conference in New York yesterday.

CNET reports that the Paramount Pictures produced a list of five “rogue” file-hosters, presented in a fancy graphic where Megaupload is crossed out. The prime targets on this shutdown list are Fileserve, MediaFire, Wupload, Putlocker and Depositfiles.

The movie studio claims that these “rogue” cyberlockers receive 41 billion page views a year, which translates to five views for every person on the planet.


The Shutdown List

In recent months the MPAA has criticized the business models of these and other cyberlockers on many occasions.

Last November, for example, we got our hands on an MPAA fact sheet titled“It’s All About the Money: The ‘Business’ Model of Rogue Cyberlockers” with an overview of the several affiliate programs some cyberlockers have in place. According to the MPAA these programs motivate users to share copyrighted material, thereby promoting piracy.

“Rogue cyberlockers aren’t just distribution hubs for stolen movies and TV shows – both the users who upload content and the operators who run the sites can earn money from doing so. As Internet video traffic grows, the threat from rogue cyberlockers that profit from stolen content is rising rapidly,” the MPAA explains in the document.

This fact sheet will most likely be forwarded to the Department of Justice with every new “rogue” cyberlocker that the MPAA reports.

Whether the Department of Justice will act on new referrals from the movie studios has yet to be seen. For now they have their hands full on Megaupload, whose founder told TorrentFreak that his defense teams is working on a killer motion in response to the “nonsense” US indictment.

      On The Bright Side! Filesonic is making a comback (“just as it was before”) with third-party downloads AND an affiliate program. AND unpaid affilate money now will be paid.

      @Everyone We all need to start developing new tools of sharing. We need come together and negotiate new and better ways to share. Regardless of it being legal or illegal. We need to come up with plans and start groups like the human rights group to bring attention to the world what is really happening here. We need to influence others and brain wash people. We need to become organized. I have been sharing for 7 years and i’m afraid we are nearing our end of easy file sharing.

      I encourage you and many others to do the same. We can no longer let “Big Brother” take our internet. If you care as much as i do. You WILL take a stance and do something about this.

      Boycott your ISPs for taking the MPAAs side in copyright notices. Tell your ISP if they do not stop, you’ll stop paying them. People with money, i encourage you to sue your ISP. Tell them what they’re doing is illegal and continue to send them payments even after they disconnect you. If they take your payment without providing you service. Take them to court. Give our ISPs a few lawsuits and let them know the conscientious of there actions.

      Let’s be realistic. Boycotting the MPAA and the RIAA is close to impossible without the wide influence of others. If anyone is interested.. We can come to together and discuss what we shall do. The MPAA still makes millions. No one should ever have that much money.

      • Mwhahaha

        Hard to share *and* boycott our ISPs.

        Also the ISPs are generally within the law. Thanks to new and shitty laws. Most ISPs in most countries want this as much as we do. They lose high profit package deals if people aren’t sharing as they don’t need so much GB a month.

        • Guest

          He not say boycott them all, just the one that do thing like 6-stricks and hand over personal info with a warrant.

        • Rufo

          I’m not saying suing the ISPs who are handing over your info and doing what the law requires them to do. I am asking people to boycott there ISP when they are sending you copyright notices because of the recent agreement with the MPAA.

      How stupid you are trolls ? Do you think if you shout down one , two , all filehosters finally , people will stop piracy ? LOL…you dream .
      To stop piracy you must close whole internet and even then people will find new ways to keep sharing .
      So to stop piracy you must kill millions people or entire wolrd !
      Sharing will exist as long humanity will exist !
      And pirates is expresion of pure freedom even that might look like chaos

  • Pixy

    Why is Mediafire on the list, though? Mediafire doesn’t have an affiliate program, and as far as I know.. never did.

    • Rufo

      Does not matter. The MPAA want all file hosting sites to be shut down. They only care about them making money. They’ll stop at nothing.

      • Pixy

        I realize that. I was just trying to follow their own logic. It makes no sense to call a site “rogue” and explain that it promotes piracy with affiliate programs and then list a site that has none, especially when there are many out there that do and aren’t on the list. I guess I was implying that in reality, they are just after the “big boys” and don’t really care if there is any piracy “promoted” through that site and to what extent. It’s a shame that the whole world gets affected by one corporation of greedy, old farts. And it’s an even bigger shame that the whole world doesn’t seem to be able to do anything against it.

        • Anyone

          there is no logic involved
          those sites allow people to release content without first bending over for the MAFIAA, so they all have to be shut down.

          of course, there is also some “pirated” content on there, but that is not the reason why they go against those sites.

          it’s all about control, not (just) piracy

      I’m with you on that one. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an illegitimate file on MediaFire, only legal open-source projects, freely available mp3 tracks by indie artists and similar material.

      I really can’t understand in what way it is a “piracy haven” like the others…

      • http://profiles.google.com/zerianis10 Christopher Kidwell

        I’ve seen ‘piracy’ things on MediaFire and personally downloaded them, however they are mainly TV shows, movies, and music that as I pointed out, you could get via a cable/satellite TV subscription in the same quality.

      • Guest

        I can’t deny that Mediafire has pirated content especially when I have been downloading from it ever since it was launched. There are whole movie and game warez sites dedicated to Mediafire alone. But considering how extensively MF is used for legitimate purposes by various communities around the world to upload linux distros, patches, fixes, firmware, mobile apps, custom bios, indie music etc., it deserves better treatment that just another warez site.

        • Bloaxor

          And the biggest reason for it being popular for that is that it’s free (with a 200MB/file restriction, which is solved by parts), fast (around 300 KB/s is better than 51), and LONG-TERM RELIABILITY. (Eg. My three year old files are still there.)

          Now, compare it to the competition. Hearts to MF, really.

          Really? Other than Mediafire (and I think Fileserve) WUpload is the only locker that I’ve found to go at above 100kbps (I get 300-400k from it).

        • yello

          luxury…. never did it for me..

      • Guest

        Do they have any files left on their server lol? I haven’t seen a single working link on wupload ever since they shut down their affiliate link. They are one of the sites that everyone mass boycotted, its useless to go after them.

      • Guvkkewm

        Hmm.

        As a free user I got a nice warez music file from them last night.
        Speed was around 230 KB/s.

        Not bad.

    • Guest

      I couldn’t care less if the others on their list got shut down but Mediafire doesn’t deserve this. They never had an affiliate program, they never encouraged piracy and they clean out pirate accounts on a weekly basis. No other file host does as much as MF to counter copyright infringement.

      Besides if I am not mistaken, Mediafire has a huge user base amongst the US Government officials and military. Surely it wouldn’t be a walk in the park to shut them down.

        Do you think developers have nothing better to do than just keep uploading their work to new file hosters everytime the MAFIAA shuts down a reliable host?

        Most developers of free apps and custom firmwares make them out of their goodwill. Some of these projects are no longer under development. If MF goes down, many such projects will be lost forever.

      • Liquidlickers

        Actually,

        This “new one emerges” trend is descending. Before it was that after some site was shut down a new one emerged. It’s all thanks to newer and tougher laws; people are not risking any more that much.

        I mean, i wouldn’t. Why would i get a $500k fine or a 2-year jail term for serving pirated material to others. Logic speaks against it.

Only the monied few are calling every shot rather than the political elite.

      We’ve lost whatever balance we had between the working masses and the powerful few. We need to redress that quickly before the disenfranchised masses get tired of all this shit in every single section of our lives.

    Man, in the digital realm the US is a joke. Its like our government only cares about the 1% and big business. I mean, without us “peons” there would be no big business in this empire, yet we have no voice ?!. Its sad actually, the file locker world has basically closed its doors to us and our gov think its productive to continue down this roman empire path. New business models like file lockers are booming now, normal people can generate revenue without being under the governments heel and what do we do…launch an assault on it. Seriously in what world does that make sense, sometimes i wish we treated ourselves like the animals we call pets. When those who have power get too old and start making decisions that affects all of us in a negative way, if they cannot step down they need to be put down. Makes me ashamed to call myself an American, being someone who embraces technology without gov oppression is an uphill battle. I used to listen to my mother and grandparents talk about their civil rights movement, every day it becomes easier and easier for me to relate. This is our civil rights battle, race has no place, nationality has no place, social status has no place…our civil rights battle is simply us who embrace technology against archaic businesses and corrupt governments. People came here as slaves, others came here with nothing, yet they ALL overcame their oppressors, If they overcame THAT, then we can overcome this !!! Our governments have no clue how united we stand but they may soon find out.

    • Mwhahaha

      I don’t get why the govt care about business so much. Why don’t they just say:

      “hey if you don’t like our laws, our taxes and how our citizens behave then fuck off to peddle your shitty wares in another country.”

      I’m sure they’ll be backtracking soon enough then. If not then there’s a million people all ready to replace the idiotic companies we have now and who will work within the law.

    Attacking sites like Putlocker and Wupload I can understand (since it’s 100% obvious they intended to gain traffic through piracy via their affiliate system) … but Mediafire?! That’s a legit company, a great website for storing your files and sharing them. I’ve never actually used Mediafire for illegal downloads – I upload photos, website backups, videos and coursework documents so I can view them both at college and at home.

    Fricking MPAA needs to place a rather large ‘rogue’ barge pole up their anus-holes for thee to laugh at.

      • [Insert Username Here]

        You need to study harder they DID have.

        They only removed it because they were scared. The fact still remains, they made the websites to gain money from piracy and to encourage uploaders from their affiliate systems.

        • http://profiles.google.com/zerianis10 Christopher Kidwell

          Inset, it doesn’t matter that they had ‘affiliate systems’. Companies who have affiliate systems for sales in real life are not punished for what their affiliates do if they have no idea that they are ‘pirating’ things.

          The same should be true of online companies.

        • Guest

          True. Immediately after launching their site, Wupload & Putlocker opened their official support thread on Wjunction, a known hangout for all sorts of warez uploaders. It was clear what their intentions were right from the start.

          But Mediafire is a totally different beast. They hate piracy more than any other cyberlocker. They wipe out entire user accounts if they find copyrighted files in them, on their own accord, even without any formal notice from a copyright holder.

        • [Insert Username Here]

          Exactly what Guest said… @Christopher.

          They advertised on Wjunction, people only do that if they want to get illegal / warez uploaders also known as ‘cashwhores’.

          Sharing is caring, we don’t need an affiliate system!

        • Guvkkewm

          Yeah?

          I don’t see you writing about how they DID have, but how they actually depend RIGHT NOW on their affiliate program.

          I’ve not made a mistake, I keep to my opinion otherwise it’s not an opinion – it’s then called feeding of what other people think. Putlocker was developed to earn money from piracy. FACT. Whether you like it or not they made their website will full intention for it to become a piracy heaven with their affiliate system. Yes, legitamate people may have used it, but come on, we all know most people use that affiliate system to earn money from warez. They advertised on forums which are full of warez uploaders. They knew what they were doing. No point defending them on that note.

          I like putlocker as a website, it’s fast and sexy, just how I like it. Mediafire was built for everyone and wasn’t designed for pirates.

          I’m sorry if the truth hurts your small mind but if you want to claim I’m being a bitch and a fool for sharing my thoughts you should understand your misinformed about how these cyber lockers work.

          As for your original claim that I phrazed my sentance as in they have the affiliate system still active. Sorry if you read it that way, I intended to make it past tense.

    We can do something about this but it would take people as a whole to do it. We all need to stop going to theaters, buying rentals, or even buying the dvd’s in protest. If we were to hit them where it really counts “in their wallets” they may be forced to stop this crap. I refuse to do any of those myself in protest to all this. The last movie I got was over 2 years ago. I don’t even care much for what their producing today anyways. I don’t DL from these sites but so understand why people do. Their infringing on our rights over their greed.

    i’ve never even seen an illegal download on mediafire, main use i’ve seen for is legitimate such as sharing minecraft texture packs and saves, nothing illegal about that site in any way

    • Anonymouse

      Ehh, I’ll admit to downloading Music from there, most of it non-licensed, some were CD’s I’ve had that were damaged. But for free users it’s not geared toward anything but smaller files(200mb file size limit last I looked) so unless you have a Pro account its not useful for Videos aka TV Shows and Movies.

  • Anonymous

    Fucking christ I use Mediafire for tons of legit shit, there is no reason for them to target that site. Is there NOBODY with common sense in the justice department? Fuck all of you greedy jackasses. I hope your walled garden collapses in on itself and you all go down with it.

    Since Megaupload died, it will be HARDER to go after these filehosters. They have learn A LOT from all this history, they will never make the same mistakes. They’re NOT stupid ! WTF !
    And, cmon !! We akready know that the MPAA, RIAA, the motherfucking MAFIAA is on their asses since years ! Since the very first cyberlocker came, they were probably already lobbying to shut it down….

    The more at risk is probably MediaFire, it’s a US based company with US based servers. But the strange thing is that even if they are over there, and growing all the time, there is still no indiction made against them. Maybe they are lobbying on the good peoples. They seems to be a pretty good and legitimate company, just look at their staff and everything.

    Fileserve, are at risk because they have servers based in US.

    For Putlocker and Wupload, i think it will be a way harder to get them, because they apaprently havnt any servers in the US, remove all the content when asked, killed their reward programs, based in HK or somewhere else, etc etc.

    And for Depositfiles, maybe it’s the hardest to take down, they seems to have servers in Russia and Netherland, it’s a Russian/Cyprus company (dont really know from where lol). This company prove that Russia is a safer land for the internet filesharing (not freespeech of course) than the Corporate States of America

    At least, the best the MPAA and US gov. can do to them it’s to seize their domain names.
    But seriously, now, i think one of these website should change their domain names to show the good example, and just say the truth that the USA arent a place for the Internet.

    Bogus statistic when you consider that not every person on the planet has Internet. But what else could we expect from these self-righteous asshats?

    • Anyone

      the “internet population” is about 2.2 billion people, or roughly a third of the world population

      which just makes the statistic even more ridiculous and so obviously pulled out of their arse

    • FBI RATS

      I’m not siding with the copyright scum but their poster made sense. It doesn’t matter if the whole world doesn’t have inet. just divide the page views of these sites by the worlds population. That must mean those sites got about 28 billion views per year. sounds about right to me. but one thing i must say. page views doesn’t make a website legal or illegal like the poster suggests. the copyright scum seem to be saying that because these sites receive alot of traffic. ALL or most of that traffic is their copyrighted works. Witch simply isn’t true. They don’t say those words but thats what i think the poster implies.

    • Mwhahaha

      It’s called a comparison, to show the scale of something.

      The MPAA/RIAA are well known for bogus statistics.

      They used to claim that the lost sale due to illegal downloading amounted to 42 times what every nation on earth had as total GNP. Now they claim infringing hits on cyberlockers are made by five times more people than exist on the globe.

    Or maybe they should change their domain names and made a popup that will explain to their user why they did that change.

    …change the domain is the first thing to do in my oppinion. Since the USA says that the .com .net .org are their property, the owners of the domain can be chaged with US laws, extradite, and all the shit…

    when the hell are all these internet sites, regardless of the function they provide, be it search engine, file host or whatever, gonna wake up and smell the coffee? if they dont start joining together in their efforts to fight the various entertainment industries, they are gonna be picked off one by one until there are none left! fighting individually is not gonna work! it has proven pointless to do that! they have to consolidate. every time a site shuts down, either because of court action or because of not having any other choice, it’s another win for the industries and just makes their next case that much easier to win. it makes no difference whether the effort is through serious lobbying or through court action, a consolidated effort has to be put up to counter the industries or all sites might just as well give up now and close down. the entertainment industries are not gonna stop until they are the only ones left, giving them complete control of the net. when that happens, mark my words, p2p/torrents will be the dogs bollocks, not the scourge of the internet that they are atm!

    If the MPAA wants to be seen as more than a fucking lame assed sad joke then resolve any issues you have in CIVIL COURT. That is what it is there for to resolve copyright disputes where only once big unlawful infringement is proved is it time for criminal charges.

    Let is remember MegaUpload when the MPAA has been working with them for 8 years and NEVER ONCE did they have any grudge large enough to take them to civil court. The MPAA even had their own private channel to delete anything they wanted but even Mega’s compliance with DMCA law was not enough.

    Well nice to you to release your propaganda infographic or your “wish list” as I would call it. As court cases done already against file lockers prove they are already lawful services and that makes you wrong.

    I was just downloading an obscure 1992 Japanese horror movie just YESTERDAY, after having found it after hours of searching. The movie was on Fileserve.
    Ok so I was downloading it, was gonna take 2 hours 45 m. Sadly, when there were 18 mins left to download, my internet tripped for a minute and fucked up my whole download.
    FUCK YOU BITCH I was screaming, then I cooled off and though OK, no problem, I’ll just download it tomorrow.
    Now this morning I go to Fileserve, and what do I get.
    “FileServe can only be used to download and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally. ”
    I WAS FUCKING DOWNLOADING JUST YESTERDAY PEOPLE AND NOW THIS SHIT HAPPENS.

          Unfortunately it’s seem to be very hard to find that’s many intelligent humans on this planet so I guess we will have to physically execute few hundred executives from the entertainment industry and the part of the law industry that’s work for them to save our society and our economy. It would be like getting ride of the bad cops who go away with murder and torture.

    Truly scary and I feared MediaFire would be targeted, even though the people at MediaFire have been denying that anyone would want to shut them down. I talked to someone at MediaFire and they said that stress was at an all time high within the company, but they didn’t want to speculate about the reasons.

    What they would say is this, “you’d have to be nuts to be in the online storage industry and not be constantly terrorized by the thought of being made an example of. Regardless of what we do, the fact is that we could be taken offline before the ink was dry on the warrant. Unlawful as that is, it’s a fact we would be crazy to ignore. What’s important to remember is that we’re not in the business of making money of illegal content. I hope people realize that we couldn’t be further away from the sleezebags at MegaUpload, or any of the other affiliate sites. And I don’t mean to paint with a broad brush either, because that’s how we end up included with those sites, but the fact is that MediaFire is a business and not a money making scheme that pays people to bring them stolen software. We’re also not funded by the malware and data theft industries, indirectly or not.”

    FYI, that’s what I remember so it is not word for word and it is heavily condensed.

    FYI 2, MediaFire is in the United States if people didn’t know. Within a mile of my house

      Rapidshare is no longer on the list of “rogue sites” because in 2011 they invested $500k into lobbying. In 2010 they were on the list of US “rogue sites”. That’s the difference. MegaUpload’s big mistake was they bought ads rather than lobbyists.

    Personally, I couldn’t be happier about this new campaign. It may come as a surprise for the casual internet user, but there is an entire industry built around “cloning” popular websites and selling the PHP code.

    99% of the people who buy these are scum bags who contribute nothing to the internet, using it only as a source of income. Don’t believe me? Search flippa for the word clone. These dirtbags hang out at warriorforum.com, where they discuss their strategy to pull in traffic on their zero content sites. They create content farms of hundreds of wordpress sites pointing to clickbank, ebay, and other affiliate programs.

    Google is going after the “one man content farms”, and I couldn’t be happier. Now the MPAA is going after megaupload clones. I guess the old adage “an enemy of my enemy is my friend” applies here. Knowing that these people need to go out and find real jobs brings me giddy joy.

    People need to stop buying from Microsoft, Apple, and similar companies and switch over to those who are actually making a difference. I’ll give you three good examples:

    http://www.thinkpenguin.com/ – they only sell free software compatible hardware (Linux distributions) and even have a libre.thinkpenguin.com portal where they protect you from proprietary software (they don’t show distributions which include or promote it)

    http://www.eztakes.com/ – this is a great company. they only distribute DRM free movies.

    https://one.ubuntu.com/music/ – Canonical’s Ubuntu isn’t completely free software although they do operate a DRM-free music store. It might not be OGG Vorbis or FLAC (patent unencumbered audio formats), but they are doing more than most other companies in promoting freedom.

    If you can’t do the later two then don’t buy it. Avoid talking about movies. I don’t buy or play video games because these companies lack ethics. I’m not against the violence or sex. Just the fact they release proprietary games. I would have no problem paying for video games if they released the source under an acceptable free software license. Free software doesn’t have to be without cost.

    Free software is software by which you have:

    The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 0).
    The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
    The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
    The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.

    Lol. TF good one. nice April Fools joke.

    • Anonymous

      Not a joke. Go search “On Copyright” conference and you will find that an executive did display this picture. It just comes at a very bad timing.

      Similar MediaFire has gone public with a statement to the MPAA.

  • Patrick

    Okay so Fileserve is gone too… This is not an April fools joke. Try downloading a file from fileserve. It states the following:

    FileServe can only be used to download and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally.

    Mmm, if the MPAA/RIAA created that fancy graphic, did they pay royalties to those companies?, after all their corporative logos are copyrighted right? if not, then the MPAA/RIAA have just violated the copyright law, and should be sued for that.

    MPAA claimed that “It’s All About the Money: The ‘Business’ Model of Rogue Cyberlockers.” So what is the purpose of shutting down these sites, eventually because of money.

  • thedeaths

    fuck everything i dont think they deserve to shut it down premiums for no reason but at least those wupload, filesonic and other them are very useful, the only sites that deserve it is porn website they a legal shit site suck up all money for some silly horny sicks people.

    hope the premium sites will comeback no matter what

    MPAA & RIAA, the most CORRUPT and FASCIST corporations in the US and maybe in the World. They are the true corporations that Anon & OP WS are trying to take down. I didn’t approve of Anon’s internet crusade until I researched the MPAA, I recommend anyone reading this to do their own research.

    “It’s All About the Money: The ‘Business’ Model of Rogue Cyberlockers”. How is the business models of ANY business NOT about the money? Making money is the only reason for doing any business at all! Even MPAA itself is to make money.

    People with money want more money, money is the root of everything, we all chase it in our cars errday, but the thing is,music albums and film and tv series has a price tag and so you should pay it, regardless of how easy it is to share, copy and duplicate. But some of us dont have jobs and need entertainment, ive shared and bought music so technically im not a pirate, with megaupload dead and gone its hard enough as it is, im not for or against it but i hate business, theres only take, they work like robots and actuallly sharing has helped spread the word with that of youtube, a media hosting platform, what we need to share is irony, the blueprint behind making a fileshare website, it would be the greatest protest, sharing has helped the industry more than
