I would really like to see a list of the affiliate programs (all of those you deal with) that have not made that mistake.
the RIAA thought everyone would backpeddle to their demands for payment too, they thought no one would fight them when they came a knocking. They thought that any mistakes they made would be covered up the mountain of legal paperwork that is filed every year. They were wrong on both counts.
1. people fought back
2. their mistakes were made public (sending notices to a printer, sueing a dead guy)
The average cost of a case has ballooned for them (resulting in them not being able to give the artists any money)
and surveys show that only 3% of the population believes that filesharing should be illegal (down from 25% when they started).
the fact is the more people you convince to "Fight the good fight" the more likely this is going to happen to you too.

Quit while you're behind.
1. You have no idea who I do, and do not, do business with.
2. Most do not have affiliate programs.
3. My license restricts use, and I know which programs are licensed to use content, and how.
This include the domain(s) they are licensed to use to promote material on, and which are authorized to USE the material according to the license. How and where material can be used.
For simple minded gideon's sake, I'll provide a real life legal example. Tube sites are not allowed according to the license. So I see a full length clip on ANY tube, I know there is no license permitting that. Any DMCA is legal. Should any affiliate or program use clips in such a manner would be breaking the license, making it null and void.
While that is one of countless examples to blow gideon's hypotheticals out of the water. One is enough. We, as do many content providers, have licenses and limits to how content can be used. It is spelled out clearly urls, and uses, or limitations.
Now, once you are finished talking out of your ass, and making up hypotheticals that do not apply to any mistakes I am not going to be making in the future thanks to a license, good record keeping, and restrictions.....
carry on with your usual stirring up bullshit shtick.
