Sites that become known as havens for copyright infringing material typically attract people who want to do nothing but infringe copyright. This is true of all types of sites, including social networks, forums, photo sharing sites, blogs and anything in between.
To do that, the site had to get serious about copyright infringement and begin to fight it using tools such as Content ID. While that decision upset many users, it also meant that original creators no longer had to compete with clips from TV shows and movies, giving them a platform to become stars in their own right. Facebook, however, is in danger of doing the inverse. The time for Facebook to get serious about copyright is now.
