Is there some sort of conspiracy here? I was pretty sure that there is a shit ton of actual copyright infringing videos that get put on YouTube and eventually I would imagine they would be taken down. Is there something else going on here?]]> http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/youtomb.mit.edu Mon, 10 Aug 2009 12:58:59 -0700 http://purposefulstride.stumbleupon.com/review/35135971/ PurposefulStride - This is my new favorite site. I can't stand the ease with which groups claiming copyright violations can have content censured on YouTube. That place has become a useless collection of near-pornographic tripe, combined with the lightest layer of pop-culture fluff that Sony BMG, Warner, et al., don't mind that the illiterate user base consumes. If you can't tell, I enjoy efforts to criticize YouTube.

But, anyway, to review the actual site....I enjoy how YouTomb provides statistics to differentiate why a video was removed (it monitors videos that were removed for any reason). Unfortunately, the way they scan for video removals is incomplete: the quicker YouTube removes videos, the higher the chances that YouTomb's ongoing scans will miss a video in its entirety, as YouTomb won't scan a removed video it hasn't seen before. Worse yet, they don't have the resources to monitor all YouTube videos; YouTomb is just monitoring the most popular videos, as well as ones mentioned on some websites.]]> http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/youtomb.mit.edu Sat, 04 Jul 2009 06:37:21 -0700 http://steelydaniel.stumbleupon.com/review/34115027/ steelydaniel - In case you're wondering what happened to that deleted youtube vid]]> http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/youtomb.mit.edu Wed, 17 Jun 2009 12:52:05 -0700 http://zangief.stumbleupon.com/review/33666406/ Zangief - The video scans pile up like every second, Youtube works fast]]> http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/youtomb.mit.edu Sun, 14 Jun 2009 16:01:08 -0700 http://l8nitegirl.stumbleupon.com/review/33588243/ l8nitegirl - From the page: "YouTomb is a research project by MIT Free Culture that tracks videos taken down from YouTube for alleged copyright violation."]]> http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/youtomb.mit.edu Wed, 01 Apr 2009 12:11:26 -0700 http://metaeducation.stumbleupon.com/review/31608136/ metaeducation - Excellent idea to track this!]]> http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/youtomb.mit.edu Mon, 08 Dec 2008 04:40:09 -0800 http://onreact-com.stumbleupon.com/review/28217976/ onreact-com - Anti-copyright-fascism.]]> http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/youtomb.mit.edu Sun, 02 Nov 2008 17:46:59 -0800 http://celainn.stumbleupon.com/review/27086951/ Celainn - Interesting, but note: there are no ACTUAL videos here (or at least, none that I could find), just info about them and why they were taken down and a few screenshots.
