Regarding your 'I am too rich to post on gfy' remark. I care for the industry. I think steve is making a mistake. And I stand up for what I believe in.
Yes of course you do. Which is why you allow Joe Shmoe to upload anything he likes. Or have you blocked unauthorised uploaders? If you had 400 studios uploading content you would have loads of clips with adverts allover them.

Someone is going to build a war chest and come after you. You're too big and too rich to ignore. The gap in your DMCA protection is that you don't monitor what is being uploaded. If you did monitor, your site would be full of films that would have the FBI knocking on your door and clips with full blown adverts in.
