Well, I just read some distrubing news(via Felicia Day's twitter feed).
Yes, Viacom can now sue you for viewing copyrighted material via youtube. It's ****** rediculous! This is way low. I know it's "their" material, but are they daft? Don't they know that these fan-vids and clips are free ******* advertising. Honestly, are they that cheap? Wow! That's all I can say. Stupid fracking suits. It's sad that this judge sided with a big company to completely frack over the millions and millions of people who use youtube for their enjoyment. I find it funny that Google is safe from getting sued by Viacom. So, now I have to make sure that none of the videos I watch have any Viacom material in it? This is not for the artists, it is for the melon-farming executives who screw over said artists just to line their own pockets.
What's next? I can't make up a digital backup of a DVD I buy? Oh, in Canada, that might just happen!
Frackity-frack.
