bullshit read the safe harbor

Once notice is given to the service provider, or in circumstances where the service provider discovers the infringing material itself, it is required to expeditiously remove, or disable access to, the material.

think of it this way if i purchased an online backup service and my password got hacked

your saying the only way the host could be protected safe harbor provision was to destroy my backup even though they could remove infringing access by simply changing the password and notify me.

the people using megaupload as an onliine backup with zero distribution (keeping the link private) are within the bounds of fair use and are therefore not an example of infringing material.
