Great post BTW.
One question I have though: if these "stolen" videos or pictures really are submitted by people, then who does it belong to? Obviously the sponsor doesn't have 2257 docs but if a couple really did submit their video/pics then what is the problem with using it for promotion and members areas if the people want it on the site?
I get a LOT of submitted gf pics often submitted by the girl herself, and I know they are really submitted by her because I also often get removal requests from the girl explaining that she "no longers wants these posted on the internet", of course I remove them ASAP, but what is the problem with allowing her to post her nude pics on my website?

95% of the GF content that you see have been posted originally to adult forums such as phun.org, or 4chan, and a few others. In reality, the problem exists because the males post these photos on the internet with or without the other parties ( Girlfriend ) knowledge. Legally, if both the parties are over the legal age, the photos are owned by the person that took the photos. It is that person's responsibility to keep them private, or to have legal 2257 docs in place by all bare ass naked people involved. If they distribute or sell these photos, they need to provide these 2257 docs to the secondary producer because they will be distributing them to their surfers as well.
The problem is, 99% of these people are not willing to give up their scanned IDs and signed documents. So there is no way to tell they are of legal age or not. Basically, if you refuse to comply with 2257, you better be able to show and prove that you have at least some type of excellent process involved for accepting submitted content. If you are accepting anything that comes your way, without verifying content, you will be PERSONALLY liable
( Even if you think you are covered by your corp as a director, the judge will pierce the corporate veil in an instant to get to the bottom of the case, meaning you are fucked. ) for your actions of harming an underage person. However, you may get lucky if you have some type of verification system in place ( Even if it does not comply with 2257 ) showing that somebody else uploaded the content to your automatic system and you were not involved ( Think facebook type community ) then you may get a lenient judge to agree with you that you are not liable. My assumption though, is that you would still have to pay some type of penalty for not complying with 2257, but you may be safe on the distributing CP charges.
