Piggy Flu and Copyright Infringement

Filed under: What The?

So the first ‘probable’ case of Swine Flu has hit Spokane. Probable, because they won’t know for a few days if the dude just has a normal flu or ’swine flu’. I thought swine flu makes your skin bubble and melt but maybe he hasn’t got to that stage yet.

In other news I got an email from youtube letting me know that a video I put up 2 1/2 years ago of Jude smiling may be guilty of copyright infringement because I used 62 seconds of a Police song. 2 1/2 years ago?! Apparently this gives Youtube permission to add advertisements and blocks it from being viewed everywhere except the following locations:
American Samoa, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Christmas Island, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Cuba, Fiji, France, Germany, Guam, Heard Island and McDonald Islands, India, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Kiribati, Mexico, Nauru, Netherlands, New Zealand, Niue, Norfolk Island, Northern Mariana Islands, Papua New Guinea, Puerto Rico, Solomon Islands, South Korea, Spain, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu, United Kingdom, United States, United States Virgin Islands, Vanuatu

Mostly a bunch of islands who probably don’t have the internets anyways and thankfully our embargoes against Cuba don’t cover Copyright Infringement.
