U-Viacom ulandele i-Google ngamadola ayizigidi eziyinkulungwane emalini ngenxa yokuphulwa kwe-copyright ku- YouTube yakwa-Google. I-Media giant Viacom inamanethiwekhi amaningi athandwayo, afaka phakathi i-MTV, i-Spike, i-Comedy Central ne-Nickelodeon. Amafomu we-Viacom-owned shows angase alayishe iziqeshana zemiboniso ngaphandle kwemvume ye-Viacom.
Isiqinisekiso
NgoJueyi 23, 2010, ijaji lalahla icala futhi lithola ukuthi i-YouTube ivikelwe ngempela ichweba eliphephile elichaziwe kuMthetho we-Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
Izinkinga
I-YouTube iyisevisi yokubamba ividiyo evumela ukuthi abasebenzisi bathumele okuqukethwe kwabo. Nakuba imigomo yesevisi ye-YouTube ichaza ngokucacile ukuthi abasebenzisi abenqatshelwe ukulayisha izinto ze-copyright ngaphandle kwemvume yomnikazi we-copyright. Noma kunjalo, lo mthetho wawunakiwe ngabasebenzisi abaningi.
U-Viacom usho ukuthi i-YouTube "yakha ngamabomu umtapo wolwazi wokuphula umthetho" ukuze uthole umthamo futhi wenze imali. (Source New York Times - WhoseTube? Viacom Sues Google Over Isiqophi Isiqophi)
Ummeli wezeGenerali we-Google Kent Walker uphendule ukuthi i-YouTube "yayithandwa kakhulu njengoba sithatha izinto ze-Viacom." Uqokomise okuqukethwe okudalwe ngumsebenzisi nokusebenzisana kwe-YouTube kwakhiwe nezinye izinkampani zabezindaba njenge-BBC ne-Sony / BMG.
Umthetho we-Digital Millennium Copyright Act
Ingxenye yalolu cala eyayinakho konke okusemandleni okuhlukunyezwa komthetho kwakuyisigatshana "esiphephile sechweba" soMthetho we-Digital Millennium Copyright Act, noma i-DMCA. Isigatshana esiphephile se-harbor singanikeza ukuvikeleka kwezinye izinkampani ezinamasevisi athola okuqukethwe ngaphandle kokubuyekezwa, uma nje okuqukethwe okuphulwa kususwe ngokushesha.
I-Google igcina ukuthi ayiphulanga umthetho we-copyright. "Siyaqiniseka ukuthi i-YouTube ihloniphe amalungelo omthetho wabanikazi be-copyright futhi ikholelwa ukuthi izinkantolo zizovuma." (Umthombo we-ITWire - i-Google isabela ku-Viacom's $ 1b icala le-YouTube)
Inkinga ukuthi izinkampani ezinkulu, ezifana ne-Viacom, zibhekene nomthwalo omkhulu wokufuna ngesandla ukuphulwa kokuqukethwe futhi wazise i-Google. Ngokushesha uma ividiyo eyodwa isusiwe, omunye umsebenzisi angalayisha ikhophi yevidiyo efanayo.
Ukuhlunga isofthiwe
Indawo yokuxhumana nabantu, i-MySpace iqalile ukusebenzisa isofthiwe yokuhlunga ngoFebruwari 2007 ukuze ihlaziye amafayela omculo alayishwe kusayithi futhi avimbele abasebenzisi ekuphutheni kwe-copyright.
I-Google yaqala ukusebenza ukuthuthukisa uhlelo olufanayo, kodwa lwalungakalungi ngokushesha ngokwanele kwabanye abanikazi bokuqukethwe. Ukulibaziseka kwe-Google ekusebenziseni uhlelo olufanayo kunabanye abagxeki njengo-Viacom abathi i-Google ishicilela ngenhloso. U-Viacom uthi i-Google kufanele ibambe izinyathelo zokususa ngokuqhubekayo okuqukethwe kunokulinda izikhalazo.
I-Google icacise isimo sayo sokuthuthukiswa nge-software yokuhlunga ividiyo futhi yathi ithuluzi idinga ukuhlelwa kahle okuhle ngaphambi kokuthi lisetshenziselwe ukushayela izinqumo zenqubomgomo ezenzekelayo.
Isistimu ye-Google manje isendaweni, futhi yenza kube lula kakhulu kubanikazi be-copyright ukuthola ukuphulwa nokuzenzakalela impendulo yabo. Kwezinye izimo, abahlinzeki be-copyright baze bavumele okuqukethwe ukuthi bahlale kusayithi futhi bangeza izikhangiso zabo noma baqaphe imoto. Lokhu kuyasiza ezintweni ezifana namavidiyo we-fan.
Misa ukuFalsiness
Ngo-March 22, i-Electronic Frontier Foundation (i-EFF), amaFrive New Films kanye ne-Moveon.org bamemezele ukuthi bafuna i-Viacom ngokucela ukukhishwa kwevidiyo abazange bazizwe bephule ilungelo lobunikazi be-Viacom.
