They offer a service to paying customers, of removing content from all the affiliated sites.

So they have more capability than they suggest. Not perfect, but much better

They have the ability to encourage content removal. Not that they will be successful.

Pretty sure the parent corporation owns a disturbingly high percentage of the video sharing sites. At the very least they own Pornhub, Redtube, Youporn as well as a bunch of others (Wikipedia about Mindgeek).

That, if true, is even more disturbing to me. Imagine the blackmail potential of a corporation with that much data.

Maybe it is OK to ask money for such a service? I think in general that kind of service does exist. You can pay people or companies to try to remove as much as possible of your content from the internet.
