that action would be covered two ways, the seeder would have a right to create a backup on my machine, and the timeshifted leacher would have a right to get the copy since his aquiring would be covered by fair use.

1. Is there a law or a court decision that confirms that sharing of copies made for timeshifting between different users is legal?
If there is, does that mean that I can print say 100 copies of a copyrighted work, put them in a box near my house and let every one of my neighbors to take one to provide redundancy of the backup? If my house will burn, I'll get backup of this work from one of my neighbors.
2. In a situation where a leecher doesn't have fair use right, wouldn't both be liable of the creation of an authorized copy?
