I agree with you Tom.
Udemy is not Youtube. Udemy could easily verify each of their instructors. However it is not in their best interest to do so.
At this moment Udemy wants users. If it gets those users because people copy course content & display it on their site, then this is good for them. It makes it look like Udemy is the go to place for courseware.
Lets not forget there is a lot of potential money at stake. What did Adobe pay for Lynda.com?
My mention of Youtube was not accidental. Youtube created a strategy for getting big fast. Was it the dog videos that made youtube big? Or was it that you can see almost any piece of copy written stuff in one place. You either see it for a short time before it is taken down. Or you see it for a while because the original copyright holder no longer cares.
