Not sure if this was posted before or not, but I was just trying to view some of my favorite Firefly videos on YouTube (Who the Hell is Jonny, Firefly Bloopers, and Going to See Serenity), only to be hit with these messages:

"This video has been removed due to terms of use violation."
"This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Twentieth Century Fox."

It's sad that we won't be able to watch some of those excellent fan vids anymore.

Enjoy the ones that still work while you can...

Woman, you are completely off your nut.


Oh no! I was wondering why my favs list was getting so sparse. It's kinda large so I wasn't sure which ones were missing, but those couple were part of it. That's just terrible! I really hope they don't start taking down mine. Might have to start throwing down!

Nor am I. And frankly I can't bitch about it because I'm a big believer in copyrights and intellectual property law.

Ok, it's understandable, but it doesn't mean I have to be happy with it.

Well, correct me if I'm wrong, because I don't know much about this stuff... but doesn't that fact this site posts screenshots violate copyright laws? Or the screenshot in your signature? How is that much different than the vids on YouTube?

I can understand them going after people who cause them to lose money, but I never understood going after those who are just trying to keep interest going in Firefly. *shrug*

Bastards.
Still, I ain't quite surprised, to be frank.
Just Fox tightening the noose 'round us Browncoats a lil' bit more- eventualy, they may even start to lay into the fansites.
You say it's not possible? Oh, contraire... this is corproate America, folks. A land where any lawsuit is possible.
When that day comes... break out the Hellfire and Pitchforks. Quite partial to them myself.

That sucks. All we're trying to do is promote Firefly and it's not like we make any money off of youtube posts. Stupid corporate bumholes

What happened? He see your face?


Hmmmm....

One of three things:

Either they haven't gotten to mine yet... ( one of 'em

)

Or...

My vid doesn't have enough views to pay any attention to.

Or...

They are only deleting the vids without some sort of disclaimer in the vid itself.
Here is what we used for the contest held on this site: (thx to Hera)

"Made for fun, not for profit. All FIREFLY related images are copyright Mutant Enemy, Inc. and 20th Century Fox. This video IS NOT affiliated with Mutant Enemy, Inc. or 20th Century Fox. "

Someone let me know if any vids with this sort of disclaimer were removed.

It's free advertising for them, but they insist on enforcing the violation crap because of the warning not to copy or redistribute their shiz in any form. Govt. rears its ugly ass head again...
