The short answer
To remove your content from Thothub, send a DMCA notice with the exact thread and gallery URLs to its host and registrar, since the site itself is slow or unresponsive. Thothub sits behind Cloudflare, so file with Cloudflare to reach the origin host, ask Google and Bing to de-list the pages, and re-file when clones repost it.
What Thothub is
Thothub is a leak forum and gallery aggregator built around reposting paywalled content from OnlyFans, Patreon, and similar platforms without the creator's consent. It is one of the more notorious names in this space, with a real legal track record. The original site was sued by OnlyFans creator Niece Waidhofer, who named Thothub along with Cloudflare and others, and it went offline under legal and reported law-enforcement pressure (see Vice). The catch is that the brand did not die with the domain. Successor and clone sites now run under new extensions, so the version live today is usually not the one from the lawsuit headlines. That history actually works in your favor: creators have forced this name offline before.
Step-by-step: removing your content from Thothub
- Confirm which Thothub you are dealing with. The original domain is gone, but clones operate under new extensions. Check which one is actually hosting your content, then list the exact thread, post, and gallery URLs. Forum aggregators spread one set across many pages, so capture each one.
- Go over the site's head to the host. Thothub has historically claimed a takedown process. It once said it removes around 200 entries per week and works with lawyers (per Vice), but in practice these sites are slow and selective. The reliable route is the infrastructure behind it. Run a WHOIS or host lookup. Thothub clones commonly sit behind Cloudflare, so file with Cloudflare's abuse team (abuse.cloudflare.com/dmca) to reach the origin host, and send a notice to the domain registrar too.
- Send a § 512-compliant notice. Include your copyrighted work, the infringing URLs, a good-faith statement, the under-penalty-of-perjury statement, your contact, and a signature. Because this notice can become a public record, file under a name you are comfortable having on record, or have a service file under its name so your real identity stays private.
- De-list from search in parallel. Submit the URLs to Google's and Bing's copyright removal forms so the pages drop out of search even if Thothub drags its feet. Cutting the search visibility limits who ever finds the post.
- Re-file when it reappears. Clones repost, and content jumps between Thothub mirrors. Monitor and re-send. The legal precedent here is on your side, so persistence pays off.
Why Thothub is hard to remove from
Thothub is a moving target by design. It runs behind Cloudflare, which means a notice to the visible domain does not reach whoever actually stores the files. Its nominal DMCA process is slow and inconsistent, so notices to the site often sit unanswered. And the bigger problem is the clones: take one down and the same content resurfaces on a fresh extension, sometimes within days. Doing this by hand means re-running the host hunt and the filing for every mirror, every time. It works, but it is relentless, which is exactly why a name with this much legal history is still online in some form.
Let Fanlock handle Thothub for you
We identify the host behind whichever Thothub domain is live, file under Fanlock's name so your identity never appears in a public takedown record, and escalate through Cloudflare, the origin host, and the registrar when the site ignores the first notice. We de-list the pages from Google, Bing, and Yahoo, and we re-file automatically when a clone reposts your content. Our four-tier escalation is built for exactly this kind of whack-a-mole. We have removed 250,000+ posts from Google, and our removal rate runs about 97.5%, which you can confirm yourself in Google's public Transparency Report. The Telegram channels and mirror sites that feed Thothub clones are part of what we monitor, so we catch reposts early. We get there fast with Pirate-Intent Search, which searches Google using the terms leak-hunters do, so a Thothub clone's repost shows up to us right as it goes online.
FAQ
Is it legal to remove my content from Thothub?
Yes. You own the copyright to your content from the moment you create it, which gives you the right to demand removal of unauthorized copies under the DMCA. Creators have already taken legal action against this site, so the precedent is well established.
How long does it take to remove content from Thothub?
A compliant host usually acts within days of a valid notice, and search de-listing is similar. Thothub clones are often unresponsive, so the realistic timeline depends on reaching the host and registrar behind the site rather than waiting on the site itself.
Does Thothub have a DMCA process?
It has claimed one, and historically said it removes content weekly, but these sites are slow and selective in practice. The dependable approach is to file with the host and CDN behind the domain, plus de-list the URLs from Google and Bing.
What if a Thothub clone reposts my content after removal?
Expect it. Thothub-branded clones come and go, so the fix is monitoring plus automatic re-filing against each new domain. Catching the mirror sites and channels that feed them stops the spread faster than manual checks.
Will filing a DMCA against Thothub expose my real name?
It can, because DMCA notices can become public records. Filing under a service's name keeps your legal identity off the paperwork while the content still comes down.
