Wow. So that means that IF a tube or torrent or any other user upload freesite KNOWS for a fact that something is infringing then it is THEIR responsibility to clean up their own fucking site like the rest of the world?

So if there was a video on a tube site that is say....a Lightspeed vid, and the new owner KNOWS that Steve doesn't have an "account" with him and it was pointed out plainly to him right on this very forum including the URL to the offending vid on the tube site (because you know...the new owner doesn't know who Jordan is or Tawnee...even though he says he knows the online biz real well), then that tube site could actually NOT be protected by the safe harbor anymore?

Is that what you're saying? Damn. It sounds like that is something that hasn't even been worked yet.
