The problems
What media businesses are up against
Media abuse moves at release speed: a leak spreads in hours, a pirated stream draws audiences the day it appears, and an impersonation account can damage talent relationships overnight. Response has to run at the same pace, across every channel at once.
02
Release exposure
Pre-release leaks
Screeners, unreleased tracks and embargoed material leaking early - where hours matter and evidence handling has to be careful.
03
Talent identity
Talent impersonation
Fake accounts posing as your artists, presenters and personalities - scamming fans, damaging relationships and creating brand-safety incidents.
04
False narratives
Defamation and false stories
Fabricated claims about talent and productions spreading through gossip forums and social platforms faster than statements can catch up.
05
Clip reuse
Unauthorized clips and re-uploads
Monetised re-uploads and clipped content on YouTube, TikTok and Telegram channels - revenue and audience leaking to accounts you don't control.
06
Talent safety
Doxxing and harassment of talent
Personal details and harassment campaigns targeting on-screen and on-air people - a duty-of-care issue for the companies behind them.

How it works
How a media engagement runs
Matters run at release tempo, with senior handling and communications that fit your existing management, legal and PR structure.
Step 1
Confidential intake
Directly or through management, legal or PR - under NDA where applicable. Known URLs and official channel lists become the enforcement baseline.
Step 2
Map the distribution
Content fingerprinted and swept across video platforms, channels, forums and search - the real spread is usually wider than the links you know.
Step 3
Coordinated takedowns
Removals filed across every identified copy - platforms, hosts and search together - prioritised by audience and revenue impact.
Step 4
Monitor and re-file
Fingerprints stay active through the release window and beyond; re-uploads are caught, verified and refiled.
How engagements are structured
Media matters are usually urgent at the start and ongoing through the release window:

Honest limitations
What we won't promise you
The honest boundaries of media enforcement:
Widely-distributed pirated content resurfaces after removal; monitoring and re-filing manage it continuously rather than promising permanent elimination.
Platforms and hosts decide each notice; our 98.6% success rate applies to verified, eligible matters, and we confirm eligibility before engagement.
Legitimate press coverage and commentary about talent is rarely removable - where it isn't, we'll say so and focus on what's actually actionable.
Offshore piracy infrastructure can ignore direct notices; those matters run through hosts, registrars and de-indexing, which takes longer than cooperative platforms.
