Critics contend the CCB created would essentially provide a way for copyright trolls to target individuals or small businesses to secure five-figure default judgements for innocent mistakes. Put another way, someone who shares memes they didn’t make could be on the hook for $30,000 in fines from folks who make a living from copyright lawsuits.

It is a high fine so as to stop this sharing business, if it was $150 no one would care.

Agree but $15K is excessive if it is a first mistake, not everyone uploads videos for commercial or bad purposes.
