On the one hand we have a thread about the abuse of power and the misuse of web cams:

On the other hand, we have YouTube getting into trouble in Italy because they abrogated their responsibilities to moderate what’s posted to their web site, and a lot of people saying they aren’t responsible for checking what goes up on their web site.

Now, for a moment, just imagine the two crossing over so that someone involved in the PA incident has video of a few of the school kids getting dressed in their bedrooms and they put the videos up on YouTube because YouTube are cheapskates and would rather take the legal risks of being sued than spend the money and effort to moderate posts before display.
Now, imagine the said school kid is your fourteen year old daughter who now feels suicidal as everyone in the world has seen her naked. Do you feel that YouTube bears absolutely NO responsibility for the situation after they made available the ability to make this video visible world wide?
Hmm, comments please.
