This doesn't clear people of other criminal activity. The 2257 law is an entirely different law, that if you break, you can legally get taken down for.
Even before this ruling, if a website was truly user generated it wouldn't have needed docs under the 2257 law. For sure in the case of CL's or a forum like GFY. The question about tubes is, do they manipulate the original content thus republish it, making them need at least 2ndary producer records.
With this ruling, if the website is fully user generated, and it's a real... if a user uploads your content, the website will have to honor the DMCA notice and copyright laws and remove the content or be sued for totally different reasons than the cl fight.
