Removal number five million comes one year after Takedown Piracy owner Nate Glass turned the company into a full-time venture.
“We take a lot of pride in each copyright infringement we remove, but I’d be lying if I didn’t admit the 5 millionth doesn’t feel a bit more special,” said Glass. “With the Aikido Program combined with our emphasis on search engine removals, our removal rate is increasing exponentially, as is our message—‘content will be protected and we will not be stopped in our mission.’”
Among the many attributes separating Takedown Piracy from its competitors is its new custom tool, the Aikido Program, which is removing hundreds of thousands of copyright infringements each month. 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 illegal downloads 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.
Wanting to better involve the fans of Takedown Piracy’s numerous artist clients, the company also has created a tips page, where 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.
Each month, Glass shares his insight into the world of digital content and piracy protection in his column for AVN Magazine. His most recent article in the November issue can be read here.
