  • Dear John,


    I think if you don't take hard pornography off of Featured Content then the internet pornography industry will sooner or later come after you.  Why?  Because, from what I've seen, 98% of the posted hard pornography here has been lifted from pornographic sites that are VERY covetous of their copyrights and they come down hard with their lawyers on image thieves.  Imagine Xanga becoming a Featured Porno-fest: all the top 20 Featured Sites always remain a revolving fest of mostly pilfered pornography.  Hey, then if I want my fill of lasciviousness, why would I go anywhere to pay for it?  Fuck the pay-for porno sites--Xanga is better than them because it has their best images for free. Word gets around the internet porno community.  First, a buzz, then a roar: Xanga's the Napster of Hardness.   95% of your new subscribers become just those previous pay-for-ers now seeking illegally-posted freebies. The rush to (and from) Xanga becomes comparable to The Gold Rush in the ole West.  You experience HUGE bandwidth drains (oh, sorry if your ISP bill just went through the roof) as you get inundated with mega-hits wanting the great free stuff.  hrmmm...great for the consumer.  Thanks for the gift.  Sorry if you get it up the ass with a lawsuit. But that's just you, not me.


    So...that's not really a rosy scenario for you. So you clean up Featured Content instead.  The pornographers would mess with you if you're Featuring their stuff, but they ain't going to bother with single sites in Xanga's backwaters.  Featured (stolen) pornography = xxTARGETxx ; unfeatured =small fry. 


    "But," Ms. xxCharmedCuntxx objects, "all my shots (she thinks to herself "cum" while saying this) were of myself and my friends.  They were all original and amateur and artistically done."  And she's right.  But how could you possibly make the distinction?  Fact is that 98% of it is reposted-stolen.  She's the 2% minority.  Sex looks like sex.  She takes the hit with the other 98% by not getting Featured.  Life's hard. So is pornography. 


    Hard pornography must be your target.  Or you will become its industry’s target.  Xanga is already too huge to ignore.  If, by doing nothing except Featuring (!), Xanga collectively ends up usurping a part of its turf (however small, still  = big $$), be sure to retain the best lawyers in New York.
