Popular Web 2.0 Video Altered Because of Copyright Claim
Finding this note on Wendy Seltzer’s weblog about a video about a Web 2.0 bubble getting removed from YouTube because of a copyright claim is like a one-two punch for the scratchpad. Someone showed me the video at work a while ago and I’ve been meaning to share it with you. (Google, Ask, nor I could find it in this space, so I’m assuming I really haven’t yet.) Like Wendy describes, the amusing video speculates about a tech bubble around Web 2.0 similar to the bubble a few years ago that burst. A photographer found an image of hers in the video and had not granted the filmmakers permission to use it, so she asked YouTube to remove the video. They did. The videomakers removed the infringing image and reposted the film. Enjoy!
