From the page: ""So Viacom took a video that I had made for non-profit purposes and, without trying to acquire my permission, used it in a for-profit broadcast. And then when I made a YouTube clip of what they did with my material, they charged me with copyright infringement and had YouTube pull the clip,""

I love this story, as it really focuses on how lame large media corporations can be.

This was a pretty funny read about how Viacom has taken a guys youtube clip without permission and created a TV show around it, then they sent that same guy a C&D when he uploaded the Viacom show that featured his original clip.

About time someone stood up to the media corporations about their idiotic usage of copyright infringement laws. Christopher Knight, you have my applause for your efforts.
