"The International Olympic Committee filed a copyright infringement
claim yesterday against YouTube for hosting video of a Free Tibet
protest at the Chinese Consulate in Manhattan Thursday night. The video
depicts demonstrators conducting a candlelight vigil and projecting a
protest video onto the consulate building; the projection features
recent footage of Tibetan monks being arrested and riffs on the Olympic
logo of the five interlocking rings, turning them into handcuffs.
YouTube dutifully yanked the video. . .
