Yeah, well, why isn't anyone going after the advertisers? Every time a search has landed me on a pirate site, I'll find ads from major retailers where I've recently shopped--Target, QVC, Coldwater Creek, etc. How about they take some heat and some responsibility? They're the ones who have their ads in the rotation and make it possible for these sites to thrive.
And in addition to the actual revenues, these advertisers lend an air of legitimacy as well. But they seem to be immune to criticism.
