I'll take a stab at that one, in addition to what ZATZAi said. I don't think this is realistic at this point because:

(1) No current content creator has the horses, and someone has to lead a class action lawsuit.

(2) We all agreed to the ToS, which is very one-sided.

(3) Many content creators rely on SL for a good percentage of how their feed their families. For the same reason content thieves piss me off so much for this reason, the most affected content creators won't want to bite the hand that feeds them.

(4) There's precedent to be set in other realms first. Let's see what happens when a big media giant leads a class action against something like Google/Youtube first.

Regards,
