Actually, people who put their own work on YouTube have been targeted by legacy gatekeepers abusing the ContentID system, including one person who uploaded videos of their performance of Public Domain classical music, a man who had his original music pulled by Orchard, and someone else who had a video containing no sounds except birdsong they recorded themselves had their vid pulled down by the same company. Take a look through the history of this website and see for yourself.
Absolutely not. Let 'em get warrants and go after the individual devices. You know, the same way they have to if they want to look through someone's snail mail.
But for the family of the girl that disappeared in the van, it's pretty galling to learn that the crime could easily have been prevented simply by placing a salt cellar with a bug in it on the diner table between the conspirators instead of chasing the boogeyman of encryption. Because that's how kidnappers tend to plan their crimes, Senator Whitehouse, FACE TO FACE. *facepalms*
More akin to: Yeah, well, I don't endorse murder, but that doesn't make it my job to manufacture wood chippers that you can't feed bodies (and thus large logs) into.
[...] the idea that the software needs to proactively contain a hash-based filter is unlikely to go over well in court. Nor, of course, would it stop copyright infringement. But it would stop a whole load of non-infringing uses. For example, a hash designed to stop downloads of recent Dallas Cowboys games could also stop Public Domain ones and copies of files clearly titled 'Dallas maps for wannabe cowboys'. It's just a shame that maximalists don't care about the damage they're doing with their attempts to support their obsolete business models.
Hate to burst your little shill hunting bubble there, AC, but I'm not paid by anybody to make comments anywhere. Perhaps you should use a search engine to find the definition of what appears (from a single instance of its use by you) to be your favourite word.
Only if the content was held in the US. Since it's held on servers in Spain, however, my right to access it can't be restricted by the DMCA. That's how the DMCA works internationally, on copyrighted stuff coming into and from the US, not on stuff going between different borders.
I agree with a lot of the commenters on this article. It seems to me that this guy does seem to be targeting Judaism ("Sex with minors permited. [sic]" written on the 'circumcision' mural), and Tim on behalf of Techdirt seems to be saying it's okay for LEOs to rob his stamp/coin collection and it's probably not related to the murals. Whereas when Charlie Hebdo was guilty of an almost identical offence (targeting Islam), Techdirt couldn't do enough to defend the magazine (albeit the reaction in that case was rather more violent).
@ Ifroen: The US was already a signatory to the Berne Convention when it passed the DMCA into law, is what. @ Richard: The fact that a part of the Sherlock Holmes canon is still under (unreasonably long) copyright in the US didn't stop me downloading the whole lot here in the UK. Seegras said: There's no "takedown upon notice" in there. That wasn't my point and you know it.
Glyn, Glyn, Glyn... The Berne Convention is very nearly global, whereas the Right to be Forgotten exists only in Europe. It seems as if both you and Ms. Powles have pulled a European Google on that fact.
Interesting info from both the sophisticated lady and the guy with the V for Vendetta mask, but I was literally referencing what I said; some people were downloading freeware from the Pirate Bay, then were quite surprised to discover .mp4 and .avi where they were expecting .exe in the zip files they received.
