Platforms large and small have for years relegated responsibility for bad things that happen to their users onto those same users and their personal networks. “If our real hosting provider found out they hosted the site, we would be at risk of losing all our data.” “It’s essentially a VPN, but for a website,” Dozes adds. Reverse proxies aren’t uncommon large sites might use one to help them run faster. “Yiff.party's main server stays hidden because the ‘real’ IP address isn't being exposed since traffic is routed through a proxy,” says Dozes. Between Yiff.Party’s server and the yiff.party website sits another server. Dozes employs a bit of tech called a “reverse proxy.” A typical proxy obfuscates the identity of the user accessing a server a reverse proxy hides the identity of the server the client accesses. Yiff.Party’s backend is a bit of a chimera by design. As a next step they might try to find Yiff.Party’s host and registrar information to lodge a complaint, which is where things get even more confusing. Creators have sent DMCA takedown notices to the linked email address-sometimes several-and received no response. In what looks like a nod toward generosity, Yiff.Party offers a “Contact” button on the bottom right of its page. Individual attempts at action have also proven fruitless.

At least some rental contracts give tenants the power to impel their landlord to install window guards against theft. And yet, with a new post dump every seven minutes or so, Yiff.Party is an increasing menace to Patreon porn society. As Sullivan notes, it’s a good thing that their creators maintain that copyright and not the platform. In other words, it’s legally on Patreon’s creators to enforce copyright on their own work. He further compares Patreon to a landlord, “limited in both responsibility and the remedies they can seek when theft occurs in your apartment.” Patreon’s “trust and safety” guidelines “give creators as much control of their businesses as possible,” which includes 100 percent ownership of their work. “Protecting the works of our creators across the entirety of the internet is not something our policies or enforcement efforts are equipped to handle,” wrote Patreon copyright lawyer Weston Dombroski. In May 2019, months after it reached out to Dozes, Patreon posted a blog describing its stance on piracy. “International hosting companies often turn a blind eye to a lot of things,” he adds.
Patreon says it also appealed to the company that hosts Yiff.Party, which, according to Sullivan, was based in France. Sullivan didn’t hear back from Yiff.Party after those two cease and desist notices he still hasn’t. (Patreon’s guidelines on adult content prohibit “real people engaging in sexual acts such as masturbation or sexual intercourse on camera.”)

A lot of it is furry porn-“yiff” is a term in the furry community referencing sexual activity-but Yiff.Party hosts anything that falls under the category of “lewds.” That includes smutty cosplays, vanilla softcore, hentai comics, 3D sci-fi sex stills, plus whatever Patreon-hosted art pirates dump there.
There might be eight new posts an hour, as well as calls for patrons to help fill out incomplete collections.

Yiff.Party doesn’t look like much: a basic, blocky, white and lavender website with a changelog documenting the latest free art dumps and their respective creators. Instead, the platform has effectively given up, despite desperate protests from affected creators. Two years ago, Patreon was determined to shut them down. When he clicked, he blanched: Thousands of his photos were laid out on the open web for free.įor five years, the libidinous pirates of Yiff.Party have siphoned masses of paywalled Patreon porn off of the platform and shared it for free. Then, in December, he received an anonymous email with a link to a website called Yiff.Party. Last fall, a prolific photographer who asked not to be named noticed a sharp, unexplained drop-off in earnings on his Patreon page, where fans shell out cash for tiered subscriptions to his photos of well-lit nude models.
