A French court sided with YouTube in a lawsuit claiming the site should be held liable for copyrighted material uploaded by users. The plaintiff, TF1, France's biggest television network, was seeking $175 million in damages. The court, however, sided with YouTube, declaring that the site has taken the necessary steps to prevent copyrighted material from being made available. TF1's lawsuit sought to force YouTube to filter all material before it was uploaded. As it stands now, YouTube has a system for identifying copyrighted materials and informing the copyright holder.
