Are video hosters like Youtube or Bolt.com really infringing copyrights? Universal seems to think so - but Tim Wu begs to differ in an article at Slate.com, where Wu reminds us of the Safe harbor provisions of the DMCA.
Want to know more about what constitues a safe harbor? EFF staff attorney Fred von Lohmann recently explained that very part of the DMCA that shields Youtube and Co. to his students at the UC Berkeley, and he was so nice to share the paper with the rest of us.
The photo by the way was taken by William Ward (CC) and shows another very safe harbor: The docks of Legoland Miniland.
