Galaki you are manipulating facts this will not effect youtube users.

The bill, S. 978, would make illegal video streaming for commercial purposes a felony punishable by as much as five years in prison if it involves 10 or more instances of streaming copyrighted works over a 180-day period. The retail value of the video must exceed $2,500, or the licenses to the material must be worth more than $5,000.

Also this got less attention when kasz made a proper thread about it.

Duplicate thread

What you're quoting doesn't explain much. How do you put a price on the stream? And we all know how the lobbies put out outright false numbers to get what they want.

And by commercial, what does that even mean? Profit in term of money or profit in term of popularity?
