I stumbled upon a site https://tkpatreon.tk/
Apparently it takes videos from Patreon pages and I’m worried it might lead to Patreon leaks.
Anyway for it to be taken down?
There have been other sites that have shared Patreon posts. Patreon already made a statement that there is nothing they can do about it.
As a creator, if your content is stolen, you can try to send a DMCA or report the site to its host.
Be mindful that it’s been known, that pirate sites have doxxed folks in the past for sending in a DMCA, as it does require some of your personal info on the forms. There are some places that may be able to send on your behalf, using their business info instead of yours, but I’m unsure what exists out there for that, right now, outside if a lawyer or similar paid venture. Also DMCA is not a worldwide applicable thing. If the host site is outside of the DMCA jurisdiction, you pretty much need a lawyer.

Sorry, that’s not what I meant. What I meant was that it’s a Patreon Viewer, if someone who hasn’t pledged to a Patreon page added the username of the creator. The non-patron could have full access to the posts that were behind paywalls
Yeah, that’s what we’re talking about.
There have been quite a few of these sites.
It’s also a big reason why many creators send their content through DMs and not through the blog posts, so it’s a little harder to skim.
