Current legislation is selectively enforced - pointing to a lack of enforcement only weakens your position. There are a lot of major distinguishing differences between HN and Youtube, but one of the most obvious is the way HN has a narrowly tailored scope - it is a platform for a very specific kind of content. You have the direct opposite (originally) for Youtube - unbound scope with narrowly defined no-go zone (illegal and copywrite protected material).

This isn’t about selective enforcement, the current legislation simply does not work the way you would like it to work.

This isn’t true, youtube has a far bigger no-go zone than you suggest.
