20th Century Fox has issued subpoenas to find out who is uploading some of their content.
YouTube has itself been protected by the safe-harbor provision and as the article states, this provision does nothing to shield the individual uploaders, whose boats are kept outside the harbor, subject to wind, waves, and pirates.
Most people think the worst that can happen is your YouTube content is taken down and maybe your account is suspended. Looks like there might be more to it in some situations.
Imagine the poor soul in the big house who has to explain to his cell mate that he is in for uploading "A Very Special Brady Christmas".
