body: Say I own website a.com, and this website is a streaming content website (People goes to watch Illegal movies and Series).
  
  
  But the website itself is not hosting any of that content, it is only allowing the users to watch those "videos" through links from 3rd party sites (Dailymotion, Rutube, videome, etc..).
  
  
  Is there **any legal action that can be undertook against the website itself**, or **should they be made against the 3rd party**, which is where the actual copyrighted content is hosted ?
  
  
  The website is in some kind, helping the distribution of copyrighted content, but is not the one hosting and distributing it to begin with. The website has nothing else than links in it's hard disk and database.
  
  
  Thoughts on such a situation ?
