Re: Isn't it bad?
"or is it sufficient that show they have made a reasonable attempt to vet content."
No that isn't sufficient, they will need humans to watch each video before it can be put on Youtube. Having ContentID scan it is not enough.
"Also, that a company is unable to exercise its legal requirements without going bust is not a pre-requisiste to letting a company off its legal obligations."
If a law is impossible to follow then it is a bad law, what if we made a law that required drug companies to cure cancer in the next 12 months and then prosecuted them when they failed to do so, would you still say 'well they should have followed the law'.
