This is going to happen, and it will happen relatively soon.


so your stupid enought to think the laws don't apply simply because viacom has lawyers

if the safe harbor provision makes googles actions legal
no amount of money spent on lawyers is going to win

because the act is legal idiot

btw another proof of the censorship effect of the DMCA

I report all the tube pages that rank above me in search (yeah, I know I don't own them but they don't know that). They rename them but at the same time the script changes the tags and URL, problem solved from my end :P
of the two possiblities the safe harbor provision getting strengthened to maximize the damages for false request

or safe harbor being invalidated and the already abusive censorship being made an order of magnitude worse

i would bet the former is going to happen rather than the later.
