pretty sad that UStream tries to place the blame on the copyright scanning solution from Vobile. Vobile worked perfectly...it just wasn't implemented or controlled properly by UStream.
maybe Vobile is a 100% hosted solution for them, which might give them less control...but i doubt the product doesn't include simple exceptions for "ignore feed" options and such. dumb.

Quoted from the update to the article:
As background, our system works like this in order to support a large volume of broadcasters using our free platform. Users of our paid, ad-free Pro Broadcasting service are automatically white listed to avoid situations like this and receive hands-on client support.
It does support a way to white-list broadcasts, but only on the paid Pro Broadcasting service. So does that mean if you paid for the Pro, you could stream all the illegal movies you want? Huzzah.

yeah, so it still points to UStream using the product with known limitations for the free version. boo!
