Legal actions towards fansubs?

I want to host some Wuxia Fansubs onto my roku channel, but I need to know if it's possible to do so without going through any copyright issues.
I see some of these fansubs on youtube, does that mean it's ok and if so, then because of which act?

for example..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_Act_of_1976

Copyright Act of 1976
Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for fair use for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favor of fair use.

How do you obtain legal action towards obtaining fansubs for my channel?
