@ cherrie ca:

Here is a great overview of things you can do when someone is republishing your content:

It gives you directions on how to write a formal Cease and Desist letter you can send to the offending site, and file DMCA claims with major search engines to take the offender out of search results. I hope this helps.

I do not know of any companies that do this and I would not want to give them any business because what I said above in my post. If none of this works you could try filing a lawsuit in small claims court or something. I would suggest contacting an actual lawyer who can advise you on how to proceed further.

If I could ask please , a website diddybag.com is taking exclusive art to my
website and selling it on theirs at a trash down price. Refuses to remove it.
Which company would you recommend for a DMCA take down please?
Is there one reasonably priced?

Also what are these automated scripts / tools you mention above for takedowns
to do yourself? Can these be purchased ?

Any advice is appreciated as this has been going on over and over with
this website.

Third option aside from “condone piracy as such” and feeding these nice people who lobby PIPA/SOPA/ACTA/… and nuke internets to fill their basins with cash seem to be some kind of free culture (and content produced by such), and that’s exactly what the internets seem to do, if time people spend on social media these days is any indication.
Maybe that’s what the anti-internet acts are out to destroy – competition for time/eyeballs?

Just a thought that ocurred to me after reading the entry.

@ Travis McCrea:

For real? Good luck! :)

From what I read on the vestigial Cheggit forums one of the admins wanted to buy the site, relocate servers to some third world country and keep it going but the owner chickened out. He opted to delete all the pr0n and make it into whatever it is right now instead. So domain may not be up for sale and the source code and torrents may be long gone now.

It was a good site. So sad it’s gone.

lol I am looking to acquire cheggit, and I was doing some searching and your site came up… This is very interesting, and it just makes me want to re-establish the site even more.
