MARINA DEL REY, Calif.—Takedown Piracy (TDP) today introduces its tip page for Internet users to report copyright infringements. Believing the best way to combat piracy is through educating and working with consumers, Takedown Piracy's tip page allows fans of movies, books and music to directly support their favorite artists. Millions of additional eyes provide Takedown Piracy with an army seeking out illegal downloads on torrent, tube and cyberlocker sites. Users are asked to report the copyright owner and a link to the infringement. There is also an option to report the good deed to Twitter followers.
"I am extremely excited to launch the tip page," stated Nate Glass, Takedown Piracy's owner. "It allows everyone to join in the fight against piracy. While Takedown Piracy has developed tools like the Aikido Program capable of removing hundreds of thousands of infringements in a day, it is important to combat illegal downloads from all angles. The tip page gives fans the opportunity to be a hero and protect their favorite artist's material."
Takedown Piracy asks citizen-reporters to make sure that what they are submitting is actually a copyright infringement and not something done with the permission of the copyright holder. Violations will be followed up on and the infringing material removed. Those interested in what happens after they report a violation may learn more here.
Displaying Takedown Piracy's diverse market range, fans of clients like pro-wrestler Colt Cabana and indie film studio Blue Underground are flocking to the tip page. The relationship between Colt Cabana and Takedown Piracy was the focus of a recent article on prolific news site TheDaily.com. The article details TDP's crusade against copyright infringers, helping "mom and pop" producers protect their life's work for an affordable price. To read the article, visit here.
While Glass started Takedown Piracy two years ago, it wasn't until November 2010 that he was able to turn it into a full-time venture. Since then, the DMCA notices sent out on any one of TDP's clients increased by 400 percent monthly. Glass restructured and enhanced TDP to increase performance, activity and awareness. TDP monitors leading piracy culprits, providing clients with monthly breakdowns on its success. As the company grows, so do its resources and resolve to protect clients' content. To date, TDP has removed over 3 million copyright infringements for its clients.
Among the many attributes separating Takedown Piracy from its competitors is its new custom tool, the Aikido Program. The progressive tool is capable of removing 100,000 copyright infringements in only 24 hours. The Aikido Program is exclusive to TDP and uses a PHP script to exploit a large piracy aggregation site. It takes a site meant to assist in piracy and transforms it into a valuable asset in anti-piracy. True to its martial art namesake, the Aikido Program uses the strength of its opponent to its own advantage.
Takedown Piracy actively tracks at least nine different ways content may be pirated, providing widespread coverage. Takedown Piracy offers protection in the following areas: cyberlocker sites like Rapidshare, torrent sites, tube sites, auctioned or unauthorized DVD resellers, search engines, image Hosts, blogs, forums and social media.
