I wonder where this leads,
situation 1: if you as a webmaster embed a video from youtube, does that make you at risk of a copyright lawsuit if someone wanted to sue you?
situation 2: user uploads a picture to your site, you moderate it by looking at it, approve it and post it to your site in a blog post with commentary under it... does this now make you responsible as the site owner? vs. a typical forum where a user upload goes live the instant the user uploads it?
situation 3: tube site has supposed user uploads, but in tests, videos uploaded do not seem to ever go live, meaning they go through a moderation process, can the tube site owner claim any protection from copyright claims?
