Right. It was automatically uploaded to a server that is publicly available. That's sharing, regardless of whether a "Share" button was involved.

From what I read, the content was not publicly available, just uploaded.

Perhaps this sentence is ambiguous, and open to interpretation, but to me it sounds like it was unintentionally shared.

According to Vegas, he didn’t intend to share the footage, but the console settings upload these by default

EDIT: I just logged out and checked online. All my clips are available to anyone who goes looking for them. They are public when automatically uploaded.

Uploading does not necessarily imply sharing. I don't share most things I upload to servers, automatically or manually. Perhaps sharing was also done automatically, but that's not clear.

Do you have an Xbox or any experience with their clip system? You can hypothesize based on other systems you are familiar with, but it won't change the reality of what Xbox does.

I just tested it, and you can too. All my clips are available online (most of them are just me accidentally hitting the clip button.) I logged out of my account, searched my gamertag and was able to access them all as a random person on the Internet.
