I like how the publisher can pick what can be put on the net and what not.

I'm hoping that in the end that video game videos are protected under the fair use exception for copyrighted works.

Completely agree, most of my day today has been half between internet and Assassin's Creed 2, I'm 2 trophies from the platinum thanks to YouTube and Google. It'll probably be the last, too, if they remove all video content of walkthroughs, tips n' tricks, etc.

Yes that and everything else that involves copyright so that includes songs, movies etc etc. I can't believe this ridiculousness, the consequences would be massive. I'm not that familiar with the US law system so I'm not sure if theres even a reasonable chance this could succeed, let's hope not.

This doesn't bother me because I know it won't pass. What does is the fact that its even being considered. I guess it's a way of deduction, so to speak.

1. This law won't be passed.

2. This law won't be enforced.

3. Guess what else is illegal on Youtube? Most music. How often is that taken down? How long does it take till another video is put back up?

4. Developers can put in a special clause to the TOS specifically to allow posting videos of their games.

So when do we find out if this law gets passed or not? I'm anxious to know what the final decision will be.
