This is all out of Google's hands and NO I didn't say Mrs Obama should have licensed the music. Only gotten permission for justified use, but that wouldn't have worked anyway, with Viacom being the ones ordering the take down. It wouldn't be up to her anyway. It'd up to her handlers.... picking songs that weren't under the Viacom Umbrella of Fascist Rule!

Google is not the enemy here.... it's "What a Maroon" type companies like Viacom do to anyone. Including NASA. So now I ask you what about the guy with the Skateboarding dog who's video got aired on Viacom without his knowledge. What did Viacom do? Claim it as their property and issued a take down notice to Google. Who just obeyed the DMCA law and took it down off YouTube.

Only by working with Google and proving he was the rightful owner was he able to put it back up, on his own channel with all his own content in it. Including his dog and skateboard!

You mean to tell me Google should be responsible for that???? lol... Just admit it you're a whacked out Google hater. Sorry, but you should take the tin foil hat off. It's not that becoming to citizens who understand the truth the whacky tobacky smoking DMCA abusers!

I suppose you think it was Google that was responsible for taking down his video too? Just because they were trying to stay out of court with this Bug Bunny "Ignoranimus" Corporation.... called Viacom!
False Copyright Claims inevitably are most often from Viacom ....as was the Nasa!!! ....again how is that Google's fault?
