Veoh Court Victory May Be Bad Sign for Viacom - YouTube infringement case may have gotten weaker

Google is in the midst of a $1 billion copyright infringement lawsuit filed by Viacom for YouTube violations of copyright infringement. Google hopes that a recent ruling in the favor of video site Veoh will mean good things for the YouTube case. In both the Veoh case (filed by porn company Io after the company’s adult films were found on the Veoh site) and the YouTube case, the defendants’ believe that they are not responsible for hosting liabilities because of a “safe harbor” clause in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. These sites are simply service providers that have to do minimal things to make sure that copyright isn’t violated. The court has ruled that this is true in the case of Veoh. Google believes this helps its case against Viacom but Viacom says that there are enough differences between YouTube and Veoh that it will contin

Swedish Authorities Take Action Against Blogger For Revealing Surveillance Documents

Wille Faler writes "Swedish blogger and civil rights activist Henrik Alexandersson has been reported for "freedom of speech" violations by the head of FRA (Swedish National Defense Radio Establishment), the government agency that is responsible for surveilling the contents, origins and destinations of all phone calls, internet traffic and text messages passing through swedish networks, regardless of suspicion or not. Alexandersson published a classified document on his blog some time ago that had been leaked to him, that proved how FRA had been conducting illegal surveillance against innocent Swedes for more than ten years. It is this offense that has landed him in trouble and deemed him a "threat to national security." In other word, the messenger gets shot for whistleblowing about the illegal conduct of government agencies.

Fingerprint Test Tells Much More Than Identity

Mike sends in the story of a new fingerprint technology with interesting potential for both crime detection and rights violations; there are also intriguing possibilities in fighting cancer. "Using a variation of mass spectrometry called 'desorption electrospray ionization' or 'Desi,' a fingerprint can identify what the person has been touching — drugs, explosives, or poisons, for example. Writing in the Friday issue of the journal Science, R. Graham Cooks, a professor of chemistry at Purdue University, and his colleagues describe how the technique could find a wider application in crime investigations. As it becomes cheaper and more widely available, the Desi technology has potential ethical implications, Cooks said. Instead of drug tests, a company could surreptitiously check for illegal drug use of its employees by analyzing computer

Anti-Piracy Organization Targets Porn Websites - Cracking down on online pirate booty

An anti-piracy organization called The PAK Group was formed last year for the purpose of gathering information about online copyright violations in order to pursue lawsuits for theft. The organization started out primarily pursuing illegal p2p sharing in a manner similar to RIAA. However they have now re-focused their efforts to target websites that have large amounts of copyrighted material on them. Specifically, they are looking to crack down on porn websites that are using copyrighted smut, sites like all of the “tubes” that you have modeled themselves after YouTube but which are all porn content. To crack down on these sites The PAK Group uses software to spider websites and find specific content that has been stolen; they are documenting the information in an organized plan to pursue litigation attacking the porn thieves.
