Thats why they write the privacy policy to put the burden on the users. It is strange for me also that he in no way (in the albeit short interview) tries to assuage the fears of copyright owners in general, just saying that there are opportunities. It should be the content owners choice whether or not they feel your opportunity is worth being a part of. It is difficult to believe that he was “unaware of rights” when he started YouTube.
