Were You Wearing Protection? [Viacom vs. YouTube/Google]

[silentfades]

YOUR REALLY MISSED MAN

[bloodyhawk989]

viacom employes have posted copyrighted stuff just so they can sue youtube

[hopeonelove]

we won! youtube WON

[voidremoved]

once a person or company makes something "public" then no "copyright" should apply. so long as no money is being made.

what i mean is if i turn on my tv and see a lady gaga video, then i should be able to tape that and put it online. because i just turned on my tv and it was there. once its made public then anyone who wants to should be able to copy it .

can i copr right my face so when i go to the bank and their security cam reproduces my image i can sue.

[semiLivedj]

jesus christ,its not that difficult to understand.

[ChrisPorterTheWriter]

to all you Canadians out there, join the Pirate Party of Canada. We're working to change the Canadian Copyright Laws so that it's more fair to the creative people making the videos, the music, writing the novels and short stories that you all love and to make it better for them to give them more rights!

[watariryusaki]

@darksidehax0rd Who takes years to write a song? It takes me about 20 minutes at most.

[darksidehax0rd]

@watariryusaki Your a complete retard sir , perhaps thats why you never will make it in music, you have no fuckin clue when it come to the music world - nor do you have any close idea what it cost to promote and produce a music album - so why dont you write your homo sexual tracks and upload them so we all can lol out - you ass sucker ,

[watariryusaki]

@darksidehax0rd Just saying. Now, who twisted your vagina in a knot?

[darksidehax0rd]

July 25 is FUCK VIACOM! Day

[RAYJ40444]

I say we ALL POOL together, even with our past disagreements....Fuck everything else. Fuck The war, Racism, religion, musical taste and all work together. We are millions strong. We need a trustworthy tuber, everone pitch in 20 bucks and hire a shitload of lawyers. I am willing to pitch in $20.00 if all users agree. Even if we would lose, shareholders will pull their money out because a long trial will cost those fuckers billions. And a counter claim for privacy invasion is in order.

[SteveCarras]

A Trustworthy Tuber? [The word was used in a Gumby clip.]

is that a new earring? very body modifying of you....great vlog. its nice to see folks not hysterical about this

[AngelosandSatan]

You are the epitome of a sissy (thank God they have not sent you to protect our country somewhere because you are the classic example of chicken) and I feel sorry for any girl that may confuse you for a male with "real" balls because you have nothing between your legs. Oh, and take this from a young chick...Coward males like you make females like me get disappointed and disgusted

[Jemma1487]

What website did you mention at 04:55?

[AngelosandSatan]

YOu suck! And the part that you are know now that you are being watched and you are trying to justify your actions and excuse yourself because you think someone is watching you and your ass is on fire IS SO LAME! You are fake and I feel sorry for your sorry ass and your sorry excuses to protect your lame ass. You are a failure dude!

Google Viacom subsidiaries and get the listing of their businesses. Boycott everyone you know until they back off of our privacy rights.

[SuperMasterLegendary]

There's one thing Viacom doesn't understand, this is unconsitutional.

Viacom is only getting the people's side of this is bcause they didn't wake up to relize that this world is different the world has changed!

[CCLJunky]

call me a nut, but i don't buy this "copyright" excuse. it's BS.

i mean, look at the money they are losing with pirated DVD's and then look at how much they suposedly are losing because of YT. come on, it's a joke!

this is the works of the NWO. pretty soon everyone who's a threat to them, will be taken from their homes at night and be deported to the 600+ concentrations camps in the US. just like the NAZI's or any other dictatorship did in the past.

connect the dots...

[SuperMasterLegendary]

Your right it is bullcrap think about it, people haven't woke up, relized that world has changed they don't care. Viacom is going to get their way this way it sucks! And this is all unconsitutional!

[CCLJunky]

"And this is all unconsitutional"

well. it seems lately that the constitution is nothing more than an old piece of paper in a museum somewhere.

i suggest you give dr. Ron Paul all the support you possibly can. not only for your sake, but for mine as well.. and i live in europe.

[1x93cm]

I second that- the last 8 yrs have seen civil liberitys and basic rights get thrown to the wayside in the name of the powers that be

[DezzyRaY]

As much as we would like to say their point was valid and it was Youtube's fault, it's not. It's Viacom's spilled milk and now they are trying to clean it up. The privacy act doesn't permit them to take legal action against the users, that's between them and Google's legal associates. At any rate Viacom thinks they are above the law and if they did try to retroact against anyone, you could find many lawyers to take your case. it is gonna cost Viacom way more than they could ever gain.

[DezzyRaY]

We really should have little to worry about. Think of all the copyrighted material downloaded from Kazaa or Limewire back in the day. If "they" had any right to go after the users of those agents. We would have been hearing similar issues years ago. As much as Viacom is peeved, it's really their own faults for not doing the smart thing and creating their own channel. Lots of music companies have their own channels and post their own content and commercials their.

[megamandapop]

Wow I really appreciate this wildly informative video! (the fact that it's not an extreme closeup is a plus too! heheheeeee)

[claushah]

Very well articulated, Bro! I am having mixed feelings about all of this myself. LOL! I can also see a conspiracy issue with this. Hmmm, what do the viewers want to watch, hmmm how can we make more money?

[AngryAussie]

I've seen hardcore porn before. It doesn't last long but it appears. The funniest one was one that appeared on the "most discussed" list in Australia for about 8 hours before it was taken down. It was on a weekend - I guess nobody was working.

And the whole copyright thing is based on greed and lies. It pisses me off.

[mikma]

I have seen the hard core pron a few times within the last 2 or three months and flagged it most of the time it was down with in the hour. Most of the time the thump nail was still up...MIKMA WAS HERE

[iiswansongii]

I have a question. When you say 'ban you from the site' do they ban your ip? or just you from using the account that infringed? I uploaded a home video clip that happens to have a radio in the background playing. Would a 'radio' playing be infringing? That 'fair use' grey area i don't understand.

[PR0DiGY1212]

They ban the account, I don't think they'd care about the radio...

[OhCurt]

I didn't know that the 3 DMCA strikes were permanent, wow. And getting information about copyright IS very arduous sometimes.

Learning process... hell yeah.

And as far as LiveVideo goes, I found one of my videos on there recently and filed a complaint to have it removed - had to go a couple of rounds with them before the took it down.

Okay, wow - 13:26 and I sat through all of this easily in one sitting. That doesn't always happen, so you must have some mad skillz.

[ZeroPunkDreamer]

ive tried. its just impossible to get permission to use copyright. i dont get it, its just free advertising for them, i dont get why companies hate it so much!

[iiswansongii]

ZeroPunkDreamer - I've tried to contact companies for permission as well to no response. :(

I don't understand why it would 'hurt' them for people to make for example, sims 2 music videos from a song they like, or having a song play while they are drawing a picture. I understand if these companies don't like 'how' their content is being used in the movie, but they already have the power to have those videos removed...and I can't believe a little fan music video would hurt the artist.

[ZeroPunkDreamer]

exactly. if anything, it would help them! more people would know about them, because most people who use music their video, list who it is in the description.

[FlowingGeisha]

Some ahole replies to my comments of fuck you whore. Say something intelligent and answer my questions. Irrelevant ahole.

[RedneckCasanova]

Great points! I notice the YouTube statement you linked to isn't really saying much to the point while the Viacom statement is clear-cut and lays it out in a pretty concrete manner. There's not much in it I could dispute nor I think could YT or anyone else who's been on YT more than a day.

Viacom's right on this and I just hope we users don't get thrown under the bus when YT scrambles for cover, but I suspect when it gets too hot we WILL be.

Gotta love this new-tech frontier! Yee-haw!

[choppa79]

im glad someones not over reacting to this ..

great work mate!

[naughtypuppetshow]

I responded to your video yesterday... Did you see my questions in the text comments?

[EnchantinFlower]

Excellent ideas and points, Andrew!
