From time to time, it has been apparent in recent times, videos from popular video hosting sites will be removed for the reason above quoted. Since these are usually posted in all good faith and are, so far as anyone can tell, in the public domain, how can we be expected to tell whether or not there might be a Copyright violation, in order to avoid embarassment or confusion in future?
Just going
"*snip*
Removed because of Copyright violation"

does rather make it sound as if the person posting it was guilty of this offence, when this is rarely actually the case.

Life is a hideous business, and from the background behind what we know of it peer daemoniacal hints of truth which make it sometimes a thousandfold more hideous.

How will that help? A lot of things aren't posted by any official news outlets or anything, if we had to rely on official sources we wouldn't have a tenth of the stuff there is.

let alone that some offical never upload anything or have channels or offical sites even at times

Allah, there is no God but He the Living the Eternal. no slumber can seize Him nor sleep

to Him belongs all that is In heavens and earth. who is there can intercede In His presence except what He permits

He knows what lies before them and what is after them. Nor shall they comprehend of his knowledge except as He wills

His throne extends over the heavens and earth

the preserving of them fatigues Him not and He is the most High and Glorious

Very few videos are removed from the forum for this reason and most of them are full length documentaries or films ripped off the TV.

We'll try to get a more concise guide written up soon on what to look out for when posting Youtube videos.

..Sort of on this topic..

I included a youtube link into a post I just made but when I previewed it, the link text vanished..  nothing else was affected.  It happened again when I posted it - the youtube link text disappeared and no link or preview appeared in the post.  But I tried editing the post and it allowed me to re-insert the link and it works.. ?huh?

I am puzzled - is this some sort of automated thing, and should I not be posting such links?  Or is my browser behaving badly (Chrome, XP)?

Here's the post..

Obviously this medium is loose. It is hard to police. Most people are good.

People have to take cover.

It was probably trying to convert the link in to embed code, we don't have an automatic system for filtering specific Youtube videos.
