Content Hire writes 1/20/05 on GFY:

The European owner [Hans Burger?] of LivefromBrasil.com and Bestialitylive.com was arrested in November last year. He owns 20 studios in Brasil feeding his sites and others with livefeeds, hardcore, transsexuals, bizarre and animalshows. 30 cops entered the house after a tip from an ex-employer who was fired. All equipment is confiscated and will be used in the trial. I was always thinking that Brasil was a good country for the porn industry but it could be tricky as you see.

On September 11, 2002, I spoke to Scott Phillips (SexTraffic.com) by phone:

Luke: "Who do you have a problem with in the industry?"

Scott: "I don't think we have anyone. Oh yeah, Hans Burger. He controls most of the world's bestiality content. He has ties to the Russian mob. He sends his Serbian mercenaries after anyone who tries to sell to us."

Luke: "Have people suffered physical harm at the hands of his mercenaries?"

Scott: "Yeah. Who's the owner of bestialitymovies.com? There have been a couple of incidents of people going to Europe and webmasters being forced at gunpoint to sign over their IBill accounts."

Luke: "How would I get a hold of Hans Burger?" Everyone laughs.

Scott: "If you call him up with an Australian accent, he will go rank at you. He hates Australians pathologically. His company is called Book & Film International."

Hans Burger says Scott Phillips is a liar. Hans emailed me 7/25/05 that he caught Scott stealing his content.

A lot of people say they've met Hans Burger but I suspect many of these claims are bogus. I know one guy who's met Hans Burger -- Frank Thring (LFP director Bill Wright).

Born in Holland, Burger is a Dutch citizen. Hans denies the claims of Phillips and other porners that Hans has his own Serbian army.

Burger has his own bank (Cybermedia.nl). CCBill made millions from his because they processed credit cards for years for his bestiality websites. Then CCBill was forced to get out of beasty processing.

Burger is reputed to be richer than Larry Flynt.

Back about 3 years ago, beast exploded. Big cash to be made in it, but nobody had content. So they do like everyone else, and jack it. Whos gonna come and sue you over some bad old beast content anyway? So it was a field day out there with Hans Burger's content.

Hans eventually becomes wise to what was going on and decides to go after everyone running a beast site. And since everyone is using either iBill or ccBill it was not hard to have a site shutdown. No processing, no site. Some of these site were huge, some estimated to be making in the 7 figures yearly at their peak.

But since Hans himself cant market worth a damn, his own sites are terribly designed and overpriced, he comes up with a plan. He gets ahold of every webmaster using his content and tells them that they can either work for him, or be shut down completely. Working for him being, you still run the site, but all checks now go to Hans Burger and he gives you 40%( if your lucky). YOU pay for bandwidth, YOU get your own traffic, same usual bulls--- BUT each week (or two weeks) your wire/check goes straight to Hans Burger... and we are talking large sums of money and LOTS of sites. What choice do you got really? You can either take his offer, or you can make no money at all. And let me tell you, Hans Burger is not a nice man. I hear he wont leave his own country cause he knows he is a dead man.

Anyhow, anyone who says the are "working with" Cybermedia etc is full of s---. They have been taken over by Cybermedia. All this beast s--- you guys bitch about, is almost entirely controlled by one man. He even controls the beast tgps, and galleries. If you have a beast tgp you are definitely listing Burgers content, and he will have you shut down. However, he will let you list galleries if they are TGP2... seriously.

Hans Burger is a genius. An evil one, but genius none the less. Who else can claim they RULE an entire niche? And its a mighty popular niche. Imagine getting a take from EVERY site in a given niche after you crippled rampant infringement of your content. Genius.

WTF do you think DutchBill is? It is the venture between Hans Burger and Verotel to process all the beast that was dropped from iBill and ccBill.

You thought the heyday for beast was the last couple years? People who used ccbill got screwed, but everyone else now is under the Burger / Verotel umbrella, and business could not be any better for the beasty community. No feds to worry about. Host all your beast in the netherlands, process it in the netherlands, Verotel gobbled up all the beast business that ccbill and ibill had to drop. Instant millions. Although iBill has their hands in the DutchBill pie as well. But that kinda information could get a person in trouble.

Bestiality.com. A little story. They got the primo beast domain, they were almost first on the web for beast, and they used 100% stolen content. Made millions. I have mentioned Hans Burger before, he actually own 95% of the beast content on the web that you see. Burger had to watch these jerkoffs get filthy rich off his content, he finally wised up and put the smack down on bestiality.com. I have had the misfortune of dealing with Burger associates and according to them they succeeded in moderate court success and had taken a couple of the owners of bestiality.coms houses etc. ONLY after they got an ass raping did bestiality.com buy exclusive content. And after they got the exclusive content, which is clearly some of the best quality beast content the world has ever seen, they royally f---ed the producer. The kind of that would get most people killed. The guys from bestiality.com are douchebags. Avoid them at all cost.

Hans Berger writes me 7/25/05: "I just claim what is mine, and they [keep] 50% of the revenues."

On March 25, 2002, Ron Cadwell, owner of CCBill, emailed his clients:

Attached is a copy of a letter we received from Visa stating that they will no longer accept Visa cards as payment for beastiality sites. Please note that their decision is effective immediately. Although we regret having to, CCBill must, as a result of Visa’s decision and other potential legal problems associated with processing billing for beastiality sites, cancel our agreement to provide service to you. We will continue to accept new member sign-ups until 2:00 PM Mountain time on Thursday, March 28, 2002.
