    I was just curious as to how these sites like projectfree.tv and alluc.org can get away with having TV shows and Movies on their websites?

    It must have either something to do with offshore hosting or to do with embeding the videos from other sites..but if they embed them from other sites... how do those sites get away with it?

    I was just kinda curious, thanks

    Most embedd from other sites, other sites are probably either offshore or sometimes dailymotion etc and keep updating links when content is deleted

    The servers they are hosted on, don't get away with it.

    You may still be in trouble for linking to them but not as much as hosting the content.

    Well you would think that it is illegal. They must have some copy right or have permission from somewhere, or eventually yes they would get in trouble and possibly sued.
