Pixeldrain also has changed it stance on porn.

Unavailable for legal reasons

• Porn: Pornographic material is not strictly banned on pixeldrain. But in order to comply with international regulations I have to prevent it from spreading too far. For this reason pornographic videos and images can be reported through the file reporting form. Once reported the file will be removed from public viewing. The IP address of the uploader will not be banned, and if the file was uploaded with an account, the owner of the file will still be able to download their files.

This does not seem to effect all games YET!! From what I understand this is new, and will probably take some time to fully effect most if not all uploads at Plexdrain...

Things are getting worse and soon downloading any game that have smolls content will get you in prison... we really cant have nice things can we?

In the case of copyright infringements, he doesn't have much choice if he doesn't want to be sued himself.

However, blocking the IP only helps if the uploader has a fixed one. Otherwise, an uninvolved person who happens to have this IP will be affected in the future.

Isn't the real solution here to just upload games in password protected archives? something simple but enough to stop the upload sites from checking it for copyright and such?

Is this about copyright infringements? The announcement made it sound like it was about "porn".

Well, that sucks. Pixeldrain has been one of the most reliable hosts for a while now.

I don't think they manually check the single files, it would take too much time. They simply hide them to the public and make them available to just the uploader, if you report them.

That's disappointing. It looks like it's just to appease whiners.

Hopefully this works and this won't really make any difference

Someone probably just reported the game. I don't think they are checking every upload. If they are cracking down, password protected archives would work fine or just use another host

 

[Cunny_fucker69]

well hopefully gofile wont do the same, crazy how much fearmongerins is being created over pixels

That would be the worst.

Porn is not defined so it could be just real adult videos too.

 

[Uncle Loco]

Oh man this is one of my favorites hosts to upload my game to. Time to find a new host.

Looks like it was reported for copyright infringement rather than porn

hmm

 

[anybody]

Just double rar it and use password.
I don´t think it´ll be an issue then.

(I hope)
It is my favorite dl site.

Not really. Someone finds the game and password somewhere, downloads it, unpacks it and reports it.

The problem is not the operator of the download site, the problem are the users who find the downloads.

That's a bummer, and they had just changed the daily download limit back to 20GB too.

That was a special because of the operator's birthday. It is now back to 5GB.

 

[paullieA]

Sad shit. Pixeldrain always had a very fast download speed.

Luckily we still have gofile

 

[sarisse]

let's just hope not to be completely cut down.
