They already do put in efforts, the question then becomes what's reasonable. Since we don't have #'s as far as # of employees, percentages of operating costs, etc, we have no idea if they are reasonable or not.

This court doesn't think so, but that doesn't say much. I disagree with the premise to begin with.

IMO, they are willing accomplices because it doesn't seem like the put enough effort into preventing it. Perhaps you disagree, but at the end of the day that's for courts to decide.
Clearly this one agrees with me that they havn't done enough and have been to hands off with this issue.
Spending millions a year isn't "hands off", as you say it comes down to how much is reasonable.. What percentage of a listing fee should go towards policing this? 1%? 10%?
