I'm confused about the lament against liberals use of DCMA for copyright violation. Aren't conservatives against copyright violation (stealing)? Or are we claiming that his videos didn't have copyright violations? As written, the article isn't clear on this point. HelpJazz 13:51, 19 October 2008 (EDT)
- I think it's wrong to paint this as a liberal-conservative issue. It's not even about whether or not copyright violations are bad. DMCA abuse happens to trample fair use, period. And both sides of any political spectrum are doing it. As one of the new sources shows, the Christian Broadcasting Network and Fox News are among those who sent out these bogus claims, and the Obama campaign also was targeted (you probably read less about them because they didn't sent a letter to YouTube asking for special privileges for political accounts). --AlanS 14:29, 19 October 2008 (EDT)
