Why The Planet hosts movie pirating sites

Not open for further replies.
I'm quite sure no one here knows why the Planet would choose to host any of their clients.
My guess would be that they have many thousands of clients and can't react to every complaint as quickly as some would like.
 
I agree with Blue! They have thousands of clients and you cannot expect them to take action against every single complaint immediately.

You have already spammed The Planet's own forums about this matter countless times and they have told you to contact their abuse department. They have also told you that you shouldn't expect a response regarding this matter.

Unless it is your copyright material being infringed, then please drop this matter already. The Planet are unlikely to take any action unless they receive a verifiable complaint from the copyright owner themselves which complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).

If your copyright material is being infringed on by a site hosted by The Planet, then file a complaint with their Legal Department that complies with the requirements of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).

The abuse departments are extremely busy at large hosting providers, so please give them ample time to investigate the matter. You are unlikely to receive any response from them unless they require further details.

Please do not start your spamming at Hosting Discussion... :)

How do you expect them to read that and understand its a pirate site. Its all arabic...I can't even read it.
If the site is Persian, then the language is called Farsi. Persians are not Arabs. :rolleyes2
 
OFAC forbids American companies from hosting Iranian sites unless the
companies obtain a government license.

With regard to Iranian sites you've been informed of, that include PersianTools, Honare7.com and P30world.com, those sites and their owners in addition to being from Iran, are abusing The Planet's TOS/AUP, promoting warez/spreading copyrighted materials and pirating movies.

Hosting Iranian sites can only be authorized on a case-by-case basis by specific license to applicants.

It's a very long time since PersianTools sites that are being hosted on some different servers of The Planet network have been brought to their attention (through contacting their legal departments)and it has been proved they have no decision to remove PersianTools and its associates.

I think The Planet is co-operating in pirating movies, promoting warez and other illegal stuff.

The Planet is already hosting hundreds of Iranian sites through PersianTools and their other resellers in the Islamic Republic.
So many of these sites have been violating The Planet's TOS/AUP as well.
PersianTools.com's owners have assured their customers they're allowed to violate the US and international laws, by spreading warez and having a pirated movies market on their own main site and by allowing the users to threaten killing Non-Muslims.

They, The Planet staff, don't want to lose the money that Ehsan Hosseinzadeh's organization gives them to host PersianTools/Honare7 sites.

Iranian Transactions Regulations:
http://www.treas.gov/offices/enforcement/ofac/rulings/ia060603.pdf

I'm seeking for legal advice to determine the best legal action to
take against them.
 
Let us know how that legal thing turns out.
Frankly I think you are wasting your time, but who knows.
 
There is a lot of difference between:
a character that knowingly does a wrong/illegal thing
and
someone whose wrongdoing is involuntary.

The Planet is purposely hosting illegal Iranian sites.(I mean the sites violate the US and international laws, not the orders of the Holy Quran to kill the apostates of Islam/Non-Muslims).

I think They host Honare7/PersianTools sites to show their support of Islamic uranium enrichment for Islamic peacful purposes and because his holiness Ayatollah Khamenei and his Islamic republic are behind The Planet, and since Islamic president Mahmood AhmadiNejad and the former appointee of 'the hand of Allah on earth'(Imam Khamenei) have ordered them to do so(See Khatamionline.com/PersianTools present for Hojat of Islam and Muslim Khatami).

What is your opinion about The Planet and The Planet's PersianTools/Honare7?
 
before.sunset,

First off, please talk about politics on the correct forums. Second, hosting companies of all sizes do their best to monitor what is on their network and servers; however, with technology it is difficult to do with the constant changes.

Third, you cannot make a statement such as "They host Honare7/PersianTools sites to show their support of Islamic uranium enrichment for Islamic peacful purposes and because his holiness Ayatollah Khamenei and his Islamic republic are behind The Planet, and since Islamic president Mahmood AhmadiNejad and the former appointee of 'the hand of Allah on earth'(Imam Khamenei) have ordered them to do so(See Khatamionline.com/PersianTools present for Hojat of Islam and Muslim Khatami)." on the intent of what The Planet is attempting to do unless you are the Planet. Do not make assumptions or rumors the hosting industry all ready has enough.

Finally, will a moderator please close this posts. There is no need for it because it seems as if this newbie cannot keep the question on topic or related to the hosting industry.

I don't have an opinion.
As you were told, if you reported the issue to The Planet, that was the best thing you could do, so just lean back and wait for them to take action.
If your whole purpose here is to sell us some kind of propaganda, this is not the forum for you to do so.

Seems like you already brought this to The Planet's (and ours) attention. Especially that if you are thinking of starting legal action, there is no need for this thread to stay active.

Best,
 
Give it up...you keep bringing this topic up over and over again. Let it die. You reported it to ThePlanet no need to continue bringing it up.
 
before.sunset, perhaps you could take this to a forum where people care. Your continued linking to thePlanet on this forum in order to get the search engines to pick up your negative threads are fooling no one.

If you have a problem with thePlanet then take it up with them. No one here can help you with your problem.
 
Hosting the Islamic Republic of Iran's websites

Let's suppose an Ehsan Hosseinzadeh residing in Islamic Iran wants to order The Planet's services, What should he do? He finds a Payam K. Rad or someone else in San marcos, California or some other place, Payam comes to Islamic Iran for a visit and they become so close friends that Payam applies for Ehsan's credit card on his return to the U.S. and lets Ehsan pretend Payam's address as his, He's ensured no one over there will ever actually check if that Ehsan resides in the same location as he's filled on The Planet's forms and applications. "don't be worried Payam, there's no careful verification, what would you say to The Planet if they call?"...

In this case does The Planet provide its services to these Ehsans? Does it always provide its servers to an Ehsan of the above kind?

"OFAC has determined that the provision by U.S. persons of international Internet connectivity services to civilian customers in Iran can be authorized on a case-by-case basis by specific license to applicants."
Has The Planet allowed everyone to rent their servers and resell them to hundreds of persons in (Islamic) Iran like PersianTools have done?
Do all those sites have that license?


"1. The specific Internet services that an applicant seeks to provide can be received in Iran using non-U.S. origin goods, technology and software that may be exported to Iran by non-U.S. persons without violating ITR §§ 560.204 or 560.205;"
Are The Planet staff Non-U.S. persons? Are The Planet's servers and hadware Iranian?

"2. No goods, technology or software will be exported, directly or indirectly, to Iran from the United States, or by U.S. persons, wherever located, and no U.S. origin goods, technology, or software will be exported, directly or indirectly, to Iran by non-U.S. persons in violation of ITR §§ 560.204"
Are The Planet's groups sure no U.S. origin goods and software are used in PersianTools services for Persons in (Islamic) Iran?

Does The Planet allow their Islamic Iranian resellers to have warez, movie pirating forums and the other illegal stuff on their primary sites just like:
PersianTools warez forum: http://forum.persiantools.com/forumdisplay.php?f=66
PersianTools DVB hacking forum: http://forum.persiantools.com/forumdisplay.php?f=52
PersianTools Pirated DVDs marketplace: http://forum.persiantools.com/forumdisplay.php?f=90
and their Islamic Iranian Resellers' clients to violate the copyrights in the same way as their reseller?

If a customer of The Planet violates the economic sanctions and obtains Iranian clients, how could it not be an issue with The Planet while almost all these clients are persons in (Islamic) Iran like the PersianTools?

What is the name of the provision of services to customers like PersianTools?
Isn't that doing business indirectly with Persons in (Islamic) Iran using the U.S made goods, hardware and software?

While PersianTools host all sites related to their government in their own datacenters on the soil under the rule of the Islamic Republic and the (Islamic) Iranian companies like ParsOnline explicitly state Piracy and copyrights violations are of no importance for them, why should The Planet insist on hosting all those sites from (Islamic) Iran?
