[ga] YouTube Blocked in Brazil

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

  Seems Google/YouTube is getting less acceptable as its behavior
of indifference continues..  It also seems Vint Cerf did not heed
my earlier suggestion to the extent he could and likely should 
have...  Seems also that Google/YouTube is still proliferating
"Kiddy porn" despite it's claims it has complied with the
Brazilian court's orders.  Such behavior from Google/YouTube
in there relative indifference attitude is not expectable
in Brazil and should not be elsewhere.  Ergo, I support this
Brazilian Judges decision and further follow on consideration
in this matter before his court.

"The popular video sharing site YouTube is now blocked
in Brazil due to a local court decision last Thursday. The site was
ordered to block the uploaded sex videos of Brazilian media starlet
Daniela Cicarelli and, although it complied, many users kept
re-uploading
it to the site. After the failure of YouTube to keep the video off of
the
site, the domain was blocked nationwide at a DNS level. Predictably,
many
Brazilians are annoyed and I've started to receive even SPAMs protesting

on this blocking. From the article: 'The case now goes automatically to
a
three-member panel of judges who will decide whether to make the order
permanent and whether to fine YouTube as much as US$119,000 (euro91,000)

for each day the video was viewable, said Rubens Decousseau Tilkian.'"
