Good info, but mostly for after the fact. I’m looking for a vehicle that will let me deliver audio content securely. Any ideas? Free is always good.

Sorry, but your “How To Stop Online Content Thieves” PDF Transcript appears corrupted. I have the latest version of Adobe so that doesn’t appear to be the problem. Also, if I try to open your http://tribalseduction.com/newmedia/how-to-stop-online-copyright-violators/ page in IE it says “The WebPage Cannot Be Found”. Then when I went back my original browser (Firefox) to try DL-ing the pdf file again I got the same “The WebPage Cannot Be Found”. Thought you’d want to know. Is there another way to get the pdf? Thanx for all your great resources. Michael

This was a great tip JP. I was developing three sites with some great concepts to use as a point to help encourage people to get up to speed on some specific business building tools so they could build their business more rapidly and use those tools as a wealth producing strategy. Well all 40 of my sites went down and three days later when the host provider got them back up, the three in which I was developing the content on, were gone. (I know…My bad in not saving it to my computer) Well with in a week some one came out with the exact copy, including the same examples but spruced it up with images and additional examples. They are much bigger than we are and have an established reputation so what are we to do? Being that the internet is now just a huge social network, what specific strategies could you use to avoid, or shall I say navigate, the possible threat that they could use their superior power and network to block you out of the internet by slamming you, or to trash your company before you get significant enough credibility or exposure? Especially if you were to approach them with copy write infringement? On the internet today we can see how one negative comment can rapidly propagate itself and destroy a company and it’s potential future profits over night. Any suggestions?

Johnathan was good enough to share a couple relevant posts on the use to digital fingerprints to help track copyright violations. He sent them over to me by email, so here are the links: Using digital fingerprints to detect blog scraping Using digital fingerprints to detect image theft

Thanks for the recommendation on domaintools.com and the embedded “digital fingerprints.”

From our initial connection made through one of our old sites (advancedbusinessblogging.com, which is now an archive, ) I know your recommendations in this area are spot on.

BTW — do you have any articles you can share on the digital fingerprint strategy?

Overall, I think you had some great points. The overaching system is solid and your highlighted points were all good, but I do want to talk about a few finer points that I had issues with.

First, your talk abut the DMCA was very good. I can’t read your notice due to an error, likely a conflict with my browser, but I would make a note that A) It is a US-only law, though some other countries have a similar law passed, not all do and B) You can also wield it against search engines.

Second, I would personally recomment domaintools.com over centralops.net for tracking down the ISP. They provide the same information, but domain tools is just a hair more user friendly and does a bit more analysis.

Finally, regarding Google Alerts. Your searches are great ideas for marketing purposes but will produce too many false positives to be useful for content theft. You’re much better going with quotes from your work or digital fingerprints that you’ve stuck into your works to uniquely identify it.

Other than those details, which are really more of nitpicks, I thought it was a very good video.

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you in this area.

Thank you for tackling this issue!
