Viacom looses copyright legal battle

In a victory for fair use and bloggers everywhere a court has ruled in favor of a filmmaker who was wrongly attacked by Viacom over copyright. The judge found that Victor Rook fairly used material and in no way used material belonging to Viacom incorrectly. District Judge Jeremy Fogel ruled that web videos must first in good faith review a clip before taking action. Viacom is ridiculous. They have so far sent over three hundred and fifty thousand take down requests to youTube.
