    Making profit the priority in such a niche industry will not end well for anyone.

    This is why we can't have nice things~

    Well, GGP didn't know about it until after it happened, so there was obviously some shady shit going on between the translators and WW.

    That post does not say they will never DMCA anyone; it says they haven't DMCA'd anyone.

    The fact is that they probably can, revealing their colors, take down WW, but it does not means that a lot of other sites won't use their raws to translate them, faster and better (hopefully TTNH) after all this is the difference between the real world and the digital sea; novel aggregator are an example, i depised them because they stole the chapters from the translators, but if qidian use such a move nothing block me from using them

    I think I can see them laughing when they wrote those responses.

    You need to add reddit's url in front of the paths, since I can not share links yet

    IANAL but say an Italian author having his work hosted in Poland can't use the DMCA unless he's publishing his work via an American company I would think. One countries law does not apply to other countries. Your image would obviously mean if an american company/individual has their work hosted in a different country that the US government has some agreement or uses that countries copyright laws.

    Qidian said that those novels would still be translated regardless what happens. Yet people still are complaining. You have no reason to complain, you read it for free. WW has breached the contract, Qi can do what they want. They have the right to.

    gravity had a problem with its translator groups, many split up, a lot joined WW, but there are others who join other sites like volarenovels, so you saying WW approached gravitytales to have those novels go to another site that isnt their?

    sure, nice excuse, you use gravity's problem as your excuse to do this kind of sht

    Do you really believe that once they hold the monopoly they will still make others read for free?
