Yesterday, Fakku filed a DMCA takedown notice against 29 open source projects. These include:>around 10 downloaders (most of which don't support fakku)>Hentoid (an app that already removed fakku support)>4 mihon extension repos>1 fakku downloader for Hentoid (link redacted in the complaint)>gallery-dl (doesn't seem to support downloading from fakku)>3 e-hentai browsers (e-hentai is compliant with fakku dmcas)>lanraragi (does have fakku support, but only for metadata)>some other stuff, most of which is unrelated to fakkuThey then go on to assert that these tools are:>primarily designed or produced for the purpose of circumventing technological measures that effectively control access to FAKKU's copyrighted worksNone of the projects they sent takedown notices to actually host any content, they only provide access/downloads for certain websites.>The piracy sites these tools target (nhentai.net, e-hentai.org, exhentai.org, Hitomi.la, Pururin, Hentai2Read, etc.) host unauthorized copies of works that FAKKU has licensed exclusively for English-language distribution.Many of the websites mentioned do not host unauthorised copies.Nhentai may have received permission to host Fakku licensed content, there is an ongoing lawsuit about this:https://torrentfreak.com/nhentai-fights-back-in-piracy-lawsuit-rightsholder-gave-permission-241024/https://torrentfreak.com/nhentai-rejects-piracy-claims-hits-back-with-500k-damages-claim-for-fraud/https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69120958/pcr-distributing-co-v-john-does/E-hentai / exhentai has content directly uploaded by Fakku themselves (https://exhentai.org/g/839974/a467d03e45/), Fakku runs banner ads on some galleries, and:>E-Hentai has honored DMCA claims for as long as I can rememberhttps://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=240088This DMCA notice was shared by the developer of Lanraragi:https://files.catbox.moe/h2g5bl.txt (converted to .txt)https://files.catbox.moe/eiz89l.rtf (original .rtf format)
>>8849885>Nhentai may have received permission to host Fakku licensed content,>there is an ongoing lawsuit about thisWell, your last line debunk the first.
>>8849892The point is that they can't claim it's unauthorised unless they win the lawsuit, which they haven't done yet.
>>8849885>E-hentai / exhentai has content directly uploaded by Fakku themselvesare they hosting purged tags from their website in exhentai?
Nice, fraudulent DMCA notices will get REALLY expensive for them.
>>8849885>fakku keeps making poorfags seethe to this day
Nhentai is read only now, preparing for purging.
Fuck FAKKU. Why is no one uploading batch torrents to nyaa anymore? The last well organized torrents I know of were by rbot and he stopped a whole 3 years ago now.
>>8852736Zoomers are useless and most of them have no idea how torrenting works.
Fakku is on Reddit, saying they never told any free software repo owner to censor information. So they lied as usual.And we're all cucks because we're afraid to do anything to Fakku.
>>8852203So is that why I can't make a account to download shit?
What hentai sites do people use these days? Exhentai seems dead, not sure if it's due to fakku or just the industry in general dying. I never see doujins from my favorite artists from a decade ago and new stuff is lame and there isn't as much as before.I'm mostly just using pixiv at this point. Is there any secret site everyone is using now that has all the good stuff?
>>8852867>I never see doujins from my favorite artists from a decade agoMay I ask who?
are the small caps behind fakku?
>>8849885Is there a mirror of the deleted Mihon/Tachiyomi extensions?
https://github.com/mikf/gallery-dl/discussions/9304
How old does my Nhentai account have to be so that I can use the API to download doujinshi?I created my account more than a week ago but it still says it's too young.Do I have to do anything else besides waiting?

>>8859870What?
>>8860692That is all.
>FAKKU GOT FUCKED BY THE CARD COMPANIESI repeat>FAKKU GOT FUCKED BY THE CARD COMPANIES
>>8860769>AIUUUEEEEEE NOOOOOOO I CAN'T SELL SHIT GAIJIN CLEARLY DON'T LIKE OVERSEAS HELP MEServes them right for being sellouts.
>>8861079Sellouts AND refusing to finish Famicon for years, wasting time on every fucking project (and the most milquetoast hypnosis work a man can think of)
civitai has tags like school uniform and classroom banned on behest of visa/mastercard censorship. along with a ton of other seemingly tame stuff.I worry that will spread.we'll get to the point where the only allowed fetish outside of pure vanilla is gender bender and feet. which to me sounds like the absolute worst of timelines.
>>8861085>the most milquetoast hypnosis workWhich isn't even finished either.The fuckers still owe the fanbase the complete version of the half-assed Kurashiki oyakodon they released years ago. They are truly of the worst artists in terms of delivering their crap.That's why I stopped following them years ago. It's not worth the effort.But maybe now that the Fakku money will stop flowing, they will get their shit together, which I doubt anyway.
>>8860769why don't those tards sell for crypto, like bitcoin or litecoin
>>8860769>>8861079>>8861085>>8861239This is the only silver lining out of this situation: artists got way too fucking complacient with all these bullshit scams with publishers, licensors and crowfunding platforms, so all they've been doing is putting the most minimum effort into their work and output. I remember last year, someone posted a screenshot of an artist's Pixiv account, how all their content was nothing but the same damn drawing redrawn over and over again, released monthly.These fucking niggers deserve what's coming to them. And even though it'll be difficult, this will allow independent (and better) artists and project to emerge from this shitshow.
>>8861079>>8861085>>8861239This best thing that will come out of this is that truly independent creators will be able to thrive (they already are). Niggers like Aiue and all these others that sold out to crowdfunding and licensor scams deserve what's happening to them; they got complacient and have been doing nothing but put the absolute minimum effort in their work and output. Reminds me of that faggot in Pixiv who was literally posting the same drawing with a few variations and doing that as his Patreon workload.>they will get their shit together, which I doubt anyway.You're right in doubting them, because they won't. They'll keep doing this with their Japanese audience, instead. But again, this stuff is only allowing other artists to take the torch, since unlike these guys, they're not beheld to corporate culture and actually want to provide good work to their core audience.

>>8860769you should link to the source of your tweets:https://x.com/aiue_etizenn/status/2044054489938960460Link to the tweet in my image:https://x.com/zkurishi/status/2044186837972070646
>>8861309>Reminds me of that faggot in Pixiv who was literally posting the same drawing with a few variations and doing that as his Patreon workload.A lot of artists have been doing that ever since subscription sites came into existence and they realized coomers will pay for anything. They also get lazy over time, take Nyamota as an example, he used to release a small CG set with 3 different sequences and variants every 2-4 days, now it's 1-2 sequences with fewer variants.
>>8859312>>8859314Nailed it by >>8852811.Fakku censors content, then denies it and blames it on someone else, while refusing to remove the censorship. Never argue with Jewcob or all his employees and proxies (Irodori Comics), as they are talking tumors.
