Wow.. While the action is ethically crappy, I never would have thought that to be an arrestable offense. Using the actresses to generate new nudes and porn scenes? Sure, but to literally cut out the nude scenes from real movies? Kind of crazy to get arrested for that without some sort of warning or cease and desist letter first.
Yeah, an arrest for something that would be generally understood to be fair use is a lot.
I can see the case for "that's not fair use". I'm not necessarily convinced either way. But an arrest?
Fair use for tugging it
