gbulmash's Journal: Many Corporations Abusing DMCA With YouTube

Just blogged about how a friend of mine not only got content taken off YouTube, but had his YouTube account completely shut down because of three different completely invalid DMCA complaints from three different complaining corporations. Not only did he get nailed by a bogus Viacom complaint, he got nailed with bogus Comedy Central and Universal Music Publishing group complaints. And after watching the "infringing" video podcasts, the only potential infringement I can find is that in one they say "Manic Monday" (the title of a Bangles song, who happen to be Sony artists, not Universal).

Sheesh.
