[See the update below… I did finally hear from him.]

I know a lot of you like Bare Derek’s porn blog. Friday around 6am the blog went dead with the message “Sorry, the blog at barederek.blogspot.com has been removed.”. When I tried to e-mail him Friday night I got a message saying “This account has been disabled or discontinued”.

I’m hoping everything is OK with him, but no, I don’t know what happened. All I know is last time when he took the blog private for a couple days it was because he wanted to make sure there weren’t any videos that had copyright issues. The fact that his e-mail address isn’t working makes me think he’s decided to just end it all and move on. But the fact that the URL isn’t available for reuse makes me wonder if something more serious didn’t happen.

The issue previously was that he was pulling videos from a lot of Ning sites. Ning has structured their business in a way so they’re not liable for what’s on the sites they host – the person who runs the site and the people who upload the content are liable – even the people (like Bare Derek) who use the embed codes can be liable (if they know it’s not legal and still choose to embed it). It’s all very carefully crafted by Ning’s lawyers to push the liability to everyone else.

Ning and many of the “tube sites” are a major problem for porn companies ’cause many of them blatently rip off content and then make it easy for the videos to get embedded elsewhere. I get e-mails from some of the sites saying things like “here’s the latest DVD from ____” and each scene on the DVD will be a video on the Ning or tube site. I see the same things with videos from pay sites where the latest releases from pay sites are advertised as new content on the Ning or tube site. In other words, one guy buys the DVD or pay site membership and then redistributes the content for free on his Ning or tube site. That’s just clearly wrong.

I’m not saying Bare Derek was doing anything wrong – his videos might have all been within “fair use”. I very rarely watched the videos on his site, so I really don’t have an opinion of whether his site crossed the line or not. I’m guessing he thought it was just too risky since some of the porn companies have been pursuing a sue first, ask questions later approach.

So if any of you are thinking of doing what Bare Derek did, just realize it can be legally risky…

UPDATE:

I got an e-mail from Bare Derek. He decided running the blog wasn’t worth the risk, so he shut it down. It was not the result of any legal action or anything like that. He’s fine – just moving on to other things in his life.

Just thought I’d give some publicity for BareBottom1980 (the blogger in Omaha) who’s got a top whoring out his ass this Saturday, Juy 5th… Here’s the description from the Craigslist ad the top put up…

I’m arranging a cumdump gangbang session this Saturday, July 5, for a bottom bud of mine. he’s 28, a little on the bigger size body-wise, but he can take your cock like a pro. bang him as hard as you want, he loves it, no load will be refused. we’re getting a hotel room for the action, so a freewill donation of a few bucks would be welcome but not necessary. we’re getting a hotel near 108th and L in omaha

let me say again, no load will be refused, none whatsoever. bring your buddies with you if you want, the more cum he gets the hungrier his hole becomes. we’re looking for raw loads only. the whole point is to get as much seed in him as possible. there may be pictures taken, but they would only be showing your cock, nothing identifiable. its just for his humiliation. if you dont want to do that, no problem, he’ll take your jizz and i’ll take a picture of it leaking out his hole after you pull-out.

looks, age, stats, not as important as willingness to breed. pic is preferred but not absolute requirement.

‘perv4cum’ on BarebackRT is organizing it – he’s a 25 y.o. poz top. BareBottom1980 is neg – you do the math…

If you’re out near Omaha and want to give him a load, you can contact him at barebottom1980@yahoo.com, or you can contact the top on BarebackRT (via his profile or the party listing) or via the e-mail in the Craigslist ad. Literally no load will be refused…

UPDATE: The bottom IM’d me last night while I was offline…

Think that about sums it up…

There was a discussion a while back about whether bug chasers were urban legend or not. Back then I think it was a legitimate question. Now I think you can say pretty definitively that bug chasers do exist – and some of them even have blogs…

• There’s Matt & Dan who seem to be competing to see who can get pozzed first.
• Then there’s BareBottom1980 (the bottom for this gangbang) who’s showing that heavy guys can be bug chasers too…
• Probably the first one was Cosmaz who may not have considered himself a bug chaser at the time, but chronicled his experiences a few years ago when he was using meth, going to sex clubs, and wound up poz as a result.

The other day I almost wrote up a post ’cause I saw two bug chasing ads on Craigslist on the same day.

I think bug chasing has existed for a while, but most guys didn’t want to associate themselves with the term – like the bottom from IML… But now that some of them have blogs it means bug chasers are getting their voice, which will lead more guys to being willing to identify themselves as bug chasers… It’s like they’re coming out of the closet, just as barebacking came out of the closet a little over 10 years ago…

If you read the blogs I have listed in my sidebar you may know that Matt from “Matt & Dan’s Sexual Adventures” is in town from Minneapolis and will be getting gangbanged Thursday night starting at 6pm and going until whenever…

So far they’ve gotten responses from 50 guys but looking for more (after all only about a third of the guys who say they’ll come actually do). I plan on being there – probably a little later in the evening so I can felch some loads out of his ass…

Dan describes Matt this way…

He’s a hot young 25 y.o. (5’8′, 155, 32w, br/br, Neg, DDF) with one of the most spectacular asses I’ve ever fucked.

He’s looking to get fucked and to take as much cum as he can.

Stop by and let his talented ass drain your cock! Totally anon – he’ll be waiting, jockstrapped, ass in the air – lubed and ready.

And yes, even though he keeps testing neg, he does take poz loads…

The gangbang will be at Hotel Pennsylvania which is at 7th Ave and 34th Street, near Penn Station.

So tops – lets see how much cum we get get in him! Contact Dan if you want to stop by and drop a load – mattdanbb@hotmail.com – they’re going at it all night long…

The other day I was looking at the map thing at the bottom of the blog and noticed Drub had registered himself with a pic. I gotta say, I feel a bit honored. I’ve been in love with his artwork for years now (check it out)… The stuff he does is really pretty wonderful. If you guys need any custom fetish artwork, a tattoo design, or a print to hang on the wall in your playroom – contact him…

Just came across the blog of an LA top (Ted) who specializes in whoring out bottoms boys. He’s got two blogs actually – bottoms who want to get whored out, and tops who are available for gangbangs and pump-and-dumps.

And the remarkable thing is how hot some of his bottom boys are. (a few are TOTALLY my type – like this asian guy, this asian/latin? guy, this white guy, this white latino who says he’s “neg” (LOL), this latin guy, as well as Steve Tuck, and Jared Steel (along with comments about how big of a mess he’s become).

The more recent posts are pretty revealing actually – he posts e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and sometimes even addresses – depends on what information the bottom provides. From what I understand in most cases the bottoms have to take any load he sends their way.

At first I was thinking it would be completely cool to add a couple blogs like that to this site with cumholes and tops posting their availability. But then I started thinking that’s what Craigslist is for… The only difference might be there would be less hostility here, it’s not quite as public, tops could comment on their experience with the bottom (and vice versa), and I could send out geographically-based e-mail alerts. If I did it, I’d have it broken down so you can see guys in a particular area…

What do you guys think? Is it worthwhile, or redundant? If you think it’s worthwhile, I’ll add it…

Bottoms – if you want to be listed, click here.

Tops – if you want to be listed, click here.

Or, if you just want to comment on the idea, send me an e-mail or comment on this post.

I just want to give a huge thumbs up to a fellow blogger top in DC who fucked a virgin raw and came in his ass… Then he was feeling guilty for what he did (he doesn’t always bareback, which is why he’s not in my blogroll), but the kid came back with e-mails saying…

I wanted to be there, but I was freaked … The only thing that kept me there was that you took the lead and didn’t give me any chance to change my mind … Thank you for making it so GREAT! The feeling of you cumming inside me was awesome. I fingered myself and tasted your load all night after I left. I will do almost anything if we can do it again sometime.

Needless to say he’s hooked up with him several times since then and dumps one or more loads in the kid’s ass every time…

I’ve never been one to really have the patience to deal with guys who are not sure they want to have sex. It did happen to me once – but it was a weird hookup (long story)… But if you’ve got the patience – take a lesson out of DC Top’s play book and get them addicted to getting cum in their ass with their first fuck…
