The whole torrent/cp/shadywebmaster/shadysponsor issue is just so huge
There are tons of new small mainstream sites using za*go as a way to monetize their sites. And most seem happy to do so. Maybe mostly because they simply don't know any better. Just like adult, the za*go promoters find new webmasters an easy target.
I spoke(email) with a new WM on Wednesday who signed up with za*go using their gatekeeper program. He is quite happy with the meager revenue even in the first few weeks. We sent several emails back and forth but he never did quite get the 'big picture'. Keep in mind this is a noob, he only sees opportunity with za*go, not the harm.
I did ask him how he ever found za*go as a revenue source. It came from, and was recommended by, a member of a small obscure forum ran by a hosting company for their resellers.
All that being said, I wish there was a web site to send people to explaining and time-lining some of the crap that goes on. Maybe there is? Where? Someplace with all the information in one pile.
