It wont save you but itll put u 100X ahead of the other tube sites, so ull get raided last.lol
I'm not really talking about the videos. I'm talking about the 2257 docs for the videos. If you run a tube site and you live in the US it is your site. If they choose to do an inspection of your records they will come to you for those records. If you don't have them you will be in some pretty deep shit. When you explain to them that you are just a host, I'm sure they will nod nicely and agree with you as they hit you with dozens and dozens of 2257 violations and they will tell you to explain it to the judge.

So the question is, do you have the money to defend yourself if this happens and are you willing to take the chance that your "im just the host" argument will shield you from 2257 laws?
