We already have that. It's called "Contributory copyright infringement" or
some such. That's why Napster got shut down even tho they weren't hosting
the copyrighted content themselves.
Xerox and Betamax (and YouTube) didn't, because they showed the copying
mechanism could be used for things other than copyright infringement.
