-The pop-up directed users to register for a program run by DietWatch

So this isn't a copyright case. When a visitor goes to the Weight Watchers site and sees a DietWatch pop-up, DietWatch has deliberetly tricked that user and has materially affected the relationship between Weight Watchers and its visitors.

Diet Watch wasn't sued because it was legitimately advertising on a website that was infringing on someones copyright. It wasn't even sued for advertising on a website that engaged in some other tort or liability. So I can't see how it relates to Adult Friend Finder advertising on Tube Sites.

If AFF caused a sign-up box to pop-up when a user visits a rival dating site, and does so without the consent of that rival dating site, then this case would apply. But only maybe, because the Weight Watchers vs DietWatch was settled out of Court, so a legal decision was never issued.
