Still waiting for the first tube site lawsuit where they sue "john doe" defendants, subpoena the site for their records and go after the people who actually uploaded the content ( in some cases this will be the tube site themselves.) The uploaders can't hide behind DMAC and if the site doesn't comply with the subpoena they will be fucked. When they do comply they will piss off all of their "uploaders" / users. Either way its a big win / win. I am still surprised no one has tried this approach yet.

i discussed this with my lawyer who goes after torrent users and he said it's too expensive. if you went after one person who uploaded a video to a tube it could cost you $5K-$10K only to find out the IP is in a country that protects him from this kind of stuff.
the tube owners upload most of the content themselves so i'm sure they have a way of getting around that, possibly through a proxy server so it would be a huge waste of money.
