    Remove Your Media LLC (RYM) is believed to have acted frequently on Crunchyroll’s behalf, per testimony on social media and an extensive report by Anime Motivation this year. RYM is also among the top six most active reporting companies in the world (placing fifth), with over 680 million URLs reported. The top six included Link-Busters.com (1.52 billion links reported), MG Premium Ltd. (966 million), Rivendell (900 million), comeso GmbH (728 million) and BPI/British Recorded Music Industry Ltd (627 million).

    Also, correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t the content the same content that they semi-recently made impossible to access in any legal way? The stuff that they’re refusing to even sell access to?

    Because if so, they can fuck right off even more than most copyright hawks.
