I have been working steadily on next week’s lecture and thought I might just check if the 30 seconds Simpsons videos I was using in my lectures are still on youtube. No they are not. I got a message from the company in question saying for violation of copyright the videos have been shut down. Last time I checked copyright law this was fair use!
So what have I done instead. Well thankfully I have found a few De Bono videos and this one from shoemoney about yahoo and if it matters. The lecture is about policy and strategic assumptions – the satire of The Simpsons is picture perfect. Shoemoney is good too and a good replacement but C’MON why did you have to take those videos off the frickin’ internet! It made my otherwise BORING lectures somewhat interesting. I am really mad! Now I can’t entertain myself while I lecture anymore thanks to the overfed legal beast that sucks on the teats of the Fox Corporation. I hope whoever thought it was a GOOD idea to take the videos off the internet remembers the little guy (me) next time they pull them off the web.
I will leave you with some thoughts on piracy:
