Sorry to rain on the parade, but its actually just a compilation video which the title of "funny dog fails"(translated very loosely from French), which the thumbnail of which, is a picture of a dog mounting a woman (who is fully clothed) on all fours. Now after that long justification, its going to sound like I'm really into dog fucking, but assure you otherwise. | ||

I just don'y understand how a website is streaming content to my pc without me knowing it. Obviously I don't want content being streamed to my pc at work which might end up with me having temp files stored for example p0rn, which I know nothing about and can lose my job for. | ||

I think adblock and noscript should still catch it, but if it's from some legit site like twitch, you have no way to know it unless you are monitoring your traffic | ||

It's just a shame knowing the people who watch this stream aren't all actually there to watch some cybersportie entertainment. Edit: Owner does porn it seems according to above post, so they won't give a damn about anything but the audience being male or of a certain age. | ||

That's really my only concern for this method, because its all about numbers. If these viewers are 'ok' for the sponsors (as in the age group is good enough for them) then I don't see much of a problem for these teams in terms of sponsoring.

Edit: Owner does porn it seems according to above post, so they won't give a damn about anything but the audience being male or of a certain age. If I understand correctly, Eclypsia is owned by a company which is part to a conglomerate of ~70 companies who do things like porn, advertising spaces selling, fiscal optimization and other things like that. | ||

a.) How clever of a scheme this is. and b.) How much more clever Starcraft players are. lol. If you ever plan to lie, cheat or steal, don't plan on getting away with it with RTS nerds on the case. edit: and c.) wtf, who in their right mind would okay this? "Hey boss, I've got a great idea..." | ||

It is sneaky, but this is being made into a much bigger deal than it really is. | ||

On all 3 pages, the stream is visible the second you get on the page. I see this as good promotion of placement of their stream, nothing scam here. You can stop the stream instantly if that is what you wish, and if they pay to get better stream placements, then so be it. | ||

I actually clicked on the sites listed. The streams are clearly visiable on the front page. They are not hidden. I don't care for Eclypsia but this looks like the OP is stirring up drama for no reason. Thread should be closed. | ||

It's just strong advertising for their stream. | ||
