Plus you have to consider the commercialization step: If the guy embeds videos and surrounds the content with tons of ads and such, he is then intentionally stealing from others to profit from it. Without the videos (even if he doesn't host them) he would have no traffic and therefore would have no business. He needs stolen or misused content to be able to be profitable.
Good move.

there is nothing in the youtube tos that says you cannot display ads on the pages you embed videos.
basically what your saying is that in order to use the videos youtube offers people to embed on their site , the consumer must personally verify the video is not copyright protected. seeing as how there is no way for a consumer to do this i would find this very strange
