He is trying to hide behind DMCA but I think the FBI found out that he actually solicited pirated copies of music/movies which might land him in trouble. YouTube still is a treasure chest of pirated content but is doing well being protected by DMCA. That's because they don't go around asking people to upload pirated stuff to their site. It's another thing that people willingly do that ;)
- JoshCole 15y agoDo you have any links or evidence which backs up this claim? And why, even if he were to ask someone to upload a file to MegaUpload, would it be just for the site to be taken down without any sort of trial?
- Mythbusters 15y agoLooks like you are too lazy to go to youtube and search. Here, let me find you some entertainment: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZedZ2Vw7Fqk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZedZ2Vw7Fqk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2g1xIub8wNA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2g1xIub8wNA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6p3wUeraIDw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6p3wUeraIDw And I am not justifying what the FBI did to him. I am saying that he might be liable if he asked people for pirated content and then hosted it for others to download.
- JoshCole 15y agoI wasn't asking for links to youtube. I was asking for (a) links to Kim explicitly requesting people to upload copyrighted material in bad faith and (b) the point at which the law states that asking for things to be uploaded in bad faith means you should be jailed/have a site taken down. To the best of my knowledge many sites like Youtube actually go beyond the DMCA in trying to empower media companies to manage there content.
