  • Another infringement suit has been waged by the MetArt Network against a well-known online adult brand. This time around the target is adult tube site XVideos.com and two related web properties, XVideosDaily.com and XVideosToday.net, along with defendant owners Stephane and Malorie Pacaud of France and a number of John Does. The studio’s suit also said that XVideos’ operators index the poached MetArt films, and that consumers end up sharing the films on social media sites, making it impossible to know how many times and where an unlicensed copyrighted video gets streamed.

  • Despite the public perception that all sex offenders are recidivists — a belief that drove these laws in the first place — sexual re-offense rates are in fact lower than those for other crimes (though an unknown number of sex crimes go unreported).
