    That’s insane. You’d think they’d have learned from the Thunderfoot/Venomfang saga.

    Creationists are a great example of willfully ignorant people. People: It’s been 150 years since The Origin of Species, the evidence overwhelmingly supports Darwin’s theory, virtually all scientists agree on this. PLEASE LEARN SOMETHING.

    Creationists are a perfect example of a segment of humanity (cough, right wingers) who can tenaciously create an alternative reality that rejects verifiable facts and verifiable evidence.

    The video at YouTube:

    The censored guy’s Youtube page with his other videos:

    And of course it’s always interesting to note that it was Rupert Murdoch’s FOX Fiction Channel that was pushing the alternative reality of evolution deniers without any “balance”.

    I also like the fact that the guy samples “Strict Machine” by Goldfrapp at the start of his videos.

    The “non-profit” and “educational” arguments are weak.

    The “fair use/criticism” should be bulletproof.

    The killer, though, is the “not their property.”

    What would be awesome would be for Fox’s lawyers to send them a nasty letter telling them to knock off trying to claim ownership of Fox’s property.

    Jay, to claim under DMCA rules, you have to sign (or swear?) under penalty of perjury that you are the designated copyright owner or assignee. Ergo, their bad.

    My point exactly, Mobius. But doesn’t the true copyright holder have to be the one to use the DMCA? Are they the only ones with standing to file a formal legal complaint?
