Anti-Islamic video actress suing just about everybody http://j.mp/NS5zfV (Hollywood Reporter) "On top of fraud, unfair business practices and libel - among other causes of action - she's now asserting copyright claims. In doing so, Garcia aims to make some history. She wants to prove that actors are entitled to a piece of the copyright when "authoring" their performances on film. Further, she continues to fight YouTube -- this time asserting that the video-sharing giant cannot lean on the safe harbor provision of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act because it failed to expeditiously remove the video at the behest of a copyright owner. Namely, her. And if all that isn't sufficiently compelling, Garcia also is suing the hundreds of individuals who have re-posted the video on YouTube." - - - --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lauren@vortex.com): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info - Data Wisdom Explorers League: http://www.dwel.org - Global Coalition for Transparent Internet Performance: http://www.gctip.org Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://vortex.com/g+lauren / Twitter: http://vortex.com/t-lauren Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com _______________________________________________ nnsquad mailing list http://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad
