CHATSWORTH, Calif.—Takedown Piracy announces the development of its new program, already delivering a blow to tube sites. The renowned anti-piracy service calls its exclusive custom tool "Nemesis." With the implementation of the Nemesis program, Takedown Piracy has now removed nearly 100,000 pirated full-length movies and scenes.
Nemesis is named after the Greek goddess heralded as an agent of divine punishment for wrongdoing or hubris. The Nemesis tool analyzes tube sites to pinpoint videos likely to be infringing on copyrights, so the Takedown Piracy team is able to verify the infringement and have the pirated content removed.
"The goddess Nemesis carried out retribution against those who committed evil deeds and received undeserved good fortune," stated Takedown Piracy owner Nate Glass. "Digital pirates are exactly that: people who profit off the work of others. Nemesis and Takedown Piracy are coming to get them, and we have already found a ton of movies, which may have otherwise gone undetected."
Takedown Piracy says that Nemesis is proving to be a comprehensive tool that will change the landscape for pirate uploaders. "We’ve already seen several prolific pirate uploaders 'retire' or stop uploading movies altogether," Glass claimed. "We’ve been able to get others kicked off the sites by showing they are repeat infringers."
According to Glass, many of the offending accounts were being used for financial gain in addition to uploading free content. "A lot of uploaders use the stolen content as a way to promote their own businesses. We’re more than happy to dish out justice and put these guys out of business."
In addition to the creation of Nemesis, Takedown Piracy has developed custom tools the Aikido Program and Aikido 2.0, as well as its advanced SEO program, Search Clean. Aikido 2.0 uses a PHP script to exploit large piracy aggregation sites. It takes sites meant to assist illegal downloads and transforms them into valuable assets in anti-piracy. True to its martial art namesake, the Aikido Program uses the strength of its opponent to its own advantage. Search Clean is responsible for eliminating infringements from even the largest search engines, like Google. The tools and programs remove hundreds of thousands of copyright infringements at an incredible speed.
Takedown Piracy actively tracks at least nine different ways content may be pirated, providing widespread coverage. Takedown Piracy’s army of servers offer 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.
