Sharing Copyrighted Video Material on DTube Could Put Steemit's Future At Risk and Devalue STEEM.. My Thoughts - Having Worked In This Arena For a Decade.

@ura-soul I share your concerns. I am one of the co-founders of a streaming music service, author of several books and problem-solving this issue with legal advisors and specialized law firms for the last decade. Not just to run a legal business but also to help major entities in the entertainment industry.

Steemit is picking up momentum, the Dtube post (and legal consequences) is already on LinkedIn posts catching the eyes of larger audiences. It's harmful. And can have negative consequences for Steemit, Steem, IPFS.

Last thing we want is a "Pirate Bay on steroids". And a similar reaction from governments, blocking services via ISPs on a national level.
