Why do some tube sites not collect 2257 information from users who upload videos for free? They only start collecting documentation when those users want to charge for their material. Seems like a huge liability to just tell the FBI "check with the user".

Nobody would upload full length videos if 2257s were required. Most of their stuff is ripped. Tube sites don't care. As long as they keep the obvious illegal stuff to a minimum (beast stuff, obvious CP), Lawyers will keep the site up and running. The big tube sites usually have a stern CP warning on uploads and have a report button under the video.
This protects mainstream social sites too. I am sure people have posted illegal stuff to facebook, twitter, and youtube.
