Intent matters.
Owning the domain doesn't give them a right to intentionally interfere with the requested content; they should simply decline to serve the expired URLs.
- jobigoud 5y agoBased on another comment it's what they do. The dead URLs are redirected to their main page which gets embedded in place of the original videos. I don't think they should inherit the maintenance cost of the incoming links, as long as they are not maliciously swapping the content.
