Take down notice for what exactly though?

It doesn’t clone the actual front end code of YouTube, and it doesn’t even download the videos and rehost them on his own server either. All of the videos are normal embeds from YouTube.

Take downs are about taking down good ideas. This could become something to drive away core traffic. I could imagine multiple clones layers on different themes like Music, Economy etc...And the similarity is enough with Tube name on it...
