Google, YouTube and the other tube sites claim immunity to copyright infringement lawsuits because their content posting services are "automatic" and "passive", without editing or filtering out content unless they receive takedown notices after the content is posted. But if a tube site is "actively" filtering out content for one of their sponsors, then they are no longer protected as an "Internet service provider" under DMCA and therefore subject to prosecution for copyright infringement just like anyone else who hosts pirated content on their web servers. If Google and YouTube really wanted to remove copyrighted content, all they would have to do is hire one full-time person to search everyday and remove obvious pirated content (new or recent Hollywood movies, TV shows, etc). But they don't because they would then no longer be protected by DMCA. Maybe a lawyer can confirm the truth of what I'm saying here.
