Court rules embedding or watching copyrighted videos is not
I thought this was relevant to the Sift's interests.

"Unless this ruling is overturned by a higher court (i.e. Supreme Court), this is what can be considered a landmark judgment in the age of Internet 2.0; it will obviously set a precedent for future copyright infringement cases and may change how people pirate movies and TV shows -- torrenting vs streaming. Of course this will also put further pressure on video streaming websites, such as Youtube, to cut down on copyrighted videos which may result in more stringent uploading rules. Who knows, let's see what happens."

Copyright is essentially a religion. You have a bunch of mentally ill people constructing an arbitrary set of rules without any reference to an external reality. By chance the actions of a particular lunatic on a particular day may resemble correct behaviour, but they're acting from delusion all the same and you shouldn't assume they're getting healthier.
a small victory
