However, it is still unethical and built on thievery.
You slithering behind DMCA is the same as a person not paying taxes to the IRS but they don't avoid them and continue to file simply so they don't get brought up on tax evasion charges. Meaning, they use the existing law to do things they shouldn't be doing.
Slavery was once legal too. That doesn't mean those who owned slaves and beat them daily were doing the right thing simply because it was legal to own Negros. But they did it anyway. And that's the the sort of issue that divides the ethical people from the unethical people.

ask the religious right how ethical you are for producing porn.
i stand up for fair use irregardless of the medium
using youtube to comment that "check out quest crews best dance routine"
should be just as legal as putting a tape cassette in vcr fast forwarding to the dance routine
and saying "check out quest crews best dance routine"
how ethical is it to censor that free speech.
