You've translated:

Into meaning that the following two statements are equivalent:

  I want to take down this video because I want to stop
  MegaUpload's viral campaign because it could be damaging
  to my bottom line.

and

  This video has the name 'Snoop Dogg' in it so I'll send
  a take-down notice because I might own the copyrights to
  this, and I'm too lazy/over-worked to be bothered to
  check.

You say that the above statements are equivalent because the end result is the same (a video is wrongfully and illegally taken down).

If that is true, then you have to accept that nothing that you do in your life matters because you'll only end up dead. The end result is exactly the same.

More ridiculous drivel. The "end result" of my life will be substantially different, depending on how I affect the people around me. Do you have anything to say that's even slightly true?
