>>Youtube grew because of piracy and the posting/distribution of copyrighted content.

The funny thing is, the second you take a step out of the anglosphere it still hosts an absolute tonne of copyrighted content that no one cares about. Just search for "full film" in Polish and you get lots of full films uploaded as-is and no one is taking them down

It is really random in the anglosphere. If you type "... full film" you will get the full film sometimes, just not all the time.

I've not searched for full films but have had purported full films come up when search for reviews of or reaction videos for films I've recently watched.

Most of these were (1) a full film, but not the film the title claimed, (2) looked like they were non-HD broadcast TV quality, (3) were not in English, and (4) had a URL overlaying the video which I would guess was to a site where the movie given in the title could be found.
