Most of safe harbor is just to suit big US Companies and it's flawed, broken law dishonestly being used by some big companies.
Also like slurping private data for targeted ads, the "It's the only way the internet can actually work." is a lie promoted by Facebook and Google.
You Tube would make a LOT less money. Maybe longer video would need a subscription.
Ending data slurp and targeted adverts would only reduce Facebook and Google income a little. It's fake snake-oil to get advertisers to switch from TV and paper, but that incentive is no longer needed.

What is nonsense? Are you implying that google/youtube doesn't have rules on what can be uploaded? If so, you're wrong...they definitely do, and they have a system in place that scans for copyrighted material (if you read the first post in this thread, this is talked about in detail)
