only if they are clueless lawyers who know nothing about fair use and copyright law

if the lawyers are the kind of guys who were involved on any of the fair use cases over the last few years (timeshifting/formatshifting/backup/recovery)

they would tell him about the huge potential liablity of removing the video without notification from the actual copyright lawyer.

However, Nathan will dance around some other shit and have reasons for why they can't, probably insulting us along the way with the usual condescending tone, leaving off exactly where it all started.

I'm looking forward to it. He's so predictable.
if your so sure that there is no liability why not stand security for the liability then

putting up your house/and everything you earn for a liability that will never exist is a no brainer.
