An interesting thought I had ok you can?t sue the Tubes because they are basically treated as an ISP. However, say one of these guys that are getting sued for uploading videos to the torrents got the video from the tube via a download from the Tube or for sake of argument took a screen recoding of it directly from the tube. The guy that gets sued goes to his attorney and says how can this pay site sue me I got that video from a tube site and they had share buttons all over the site so I thought they owned it and they were giving it away. His attorney says well maybe we should implead the tube into this. So the attorney basically files a claim against the tube in the case being brought against his client on the basis of yes my client may have did what he was accused of, but it was only because the Tube gave him the impression that they owned the rights to said video and encouraged him to share it with others. Now wouldn?t that be a hoot?
