| Why should they care?
The megacorps exist to CONTROL the flow of information. If they can prevent people from seeing what they don't want them to see, then they win. If I were the megacorps, of course I would send a DMCA notice for EVERY video I owned, or every video that mentioned me or any of my megacorps susidiaries. Remember, control the news, and you control the populace. War is Peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength. We should all be good little proles, and work for our masters, and spend money like our masters tell us to spend it. -- Stick it to the MAN. Support your local torrent sites.

1 edit | Aside from the fact that what you said reminds me of the Pink Floyd song " The Wall " 
Google sadly isn't doing very well in my book on this one, they should have a team setup to investigate the video requests to be taken down. It's a lot of videos but it should at the very least be done.
Of course if it were up to me I would fight it a lot more, in essence companies get riled up too easily over Youtube and other such sites / services. Companies basically get free advertising if you think about it, they don't have to pay to host the files. Quite a few people I know of that watch music videos, user made music videos and other such content tend to go out and buy the albums / movies / etc.
Companies should be happy, of course if they could see that anyways. Unfortunately they're so bent on controlling every piece of information that it won't happen. |
