Must do a search and see what you think of porn Tube sites and the people who upload to them.
1. The court system in BOTH CANADA and the US is based on the concept of innocent UNTIL proven guilty.

2. they are not asking for the information of people who are guilty, they are asking for ALL information.

Read the question they are trying to make the arguement between user CREATED content and copyright content.

fair use does in fact mean that user DERIVED content is also NOT a copyright infringement, the question is predisposed that any use of copyright content is an infringement which it is not.
