Illegal Movie Sharing Risks

Summary

Sharing movies through embed links without proper authorization is generally illegal, even if you dont store the movies on your server. A disclaimer does not exempt you from copyright laws. Copyright infringement occurs when an individual uses someone elses copyrighted material without permission, leading to potential fines, DMCA takedown notices, and legal actions. If you receive a DMCA takedown notice and do not comply, you could face legal actions, including fines and monetary damages. Complying with a DMCA takedown notice can help you avoid immediate legal action, but continuing to share copyrighted content without permission can still expose you to future notices and potential legal issues. Consider creating original content or obtaining proper licenses for the movies you share.
