Why nothing, you give up all rights and incoming from your videos, even to the extent you cant resell them later on your own since they no longer belong to you.
They want us to pay for dubious quality, with unknown content videos created by complete amateurs? What are they smoking? Thats a good way to kill it off, even better then the 'IP cops' that now monitor it.

Nanny state in a corporate form.
Nope, IP is the problem. No network, no sharing across them.
All kidding aside, "ethics" ( and morals ) are relative.
