  2. I'm actually fairly impressed the assault has kept going. The only thing that could have been handled better, and which will always be seen as a blackmark on the campaign was the dDOS attack that happened on their sites. At the protests everyone is being peaceful and following the law and such, but the dDOS was illegal and which is why the CoS will get people behind them when they say Anonymous is a cyberterrorist group.

    Because really, that's the realm of online mobs and bot-herders.

  3. Looks like it's back up again. I'm beginning to wonder if it's standard procedure at youtube to take down a video immediately after receiving a TOS violation report until it's been reviewed.

    Anywho, also wanted to say that this is probably the best thing I've seen all week: http://www.exscientologykids.com/

  4. The flagging system that takes stuff down is for the most part automated. I would think this video has been getting enough attention that they would take a minute to look at it and mark it safe or something, not sure what's up with it. Could be a glitch. Some troll is trying to take credit like it's lawyers forcing youtube to do this but I don't buy it. It's up right now at any rate.
