Slowing the flow of illicit uploads
An article by Michael Bazeley of The Mercury News, via Yahoo! News, explains:
The recent emergence of Web sites that encourage the public to upload copies of their own video and audio content is highlighting the difficulties of controlling the illicit spread of copyrighted material.
The new sites are coming online at a time when technology is making it increasingly easy for ordinary people to copy, record, edit and upload video and audio content to the Web.
The latest publicized copyright-related incident came about a week ago, when Google acknowledged that it was forced to take down illegal copies of theHollywood feature film "The Matrix Revolutions'' and episodes of "The Simpsons,'' which had been uploaded to a new Google video search site.
