This is total BS. How is posting a few screen-grabs from their publicly available video a violation of their copyright? Isn't it considered fair use? I was expecting more on the lines of "we are sorry for the whole fiasco, our legal team acts independently whenever it feels like there is a violation", instead of him defending the DMCA. They used DMCA to try and censor a debate about their lies. Talking about DMCA, is it just me, or does anybody else think that government is always eager to pass copyright protection (aka censorship) laws, rather than passing laws to protect the citizens from corporate greed?

I believe this was a fair use of out critique laws. We are allowed to show copyrighted work when criticizing, reporting and other public things like that.

That's what the citizens get when they don't hire lobbyists.

So how can this be fixed?

Stop voting for politicians who have proved themselves to be servants of lobbyists and corporations, start voting for these guys:

The price of democracy is vigilance. They should know the same movement that swept them into office will gladly sweep them out if they cross the line.

Vote for candidates that are against corporate lobbying and citizens united. Start with local and state representatives. Raise awareness.
