    The same goes for YouTube channels.
    No, Google owns your blog and your YouTube channel, but you own (retain intellectual property rights of) all the content. See "Your Content in our Services" at [url]http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/terms/[/url]

    However, Google does not need to make your content available on their services. But they don't own your content-- the author does.

    But then will there be anything to argue?

    Of course, fingers crossed for an appeal, right?

    of course, jury bias towards an american company, the correctness of the result, if jurys work, or know what they're doing.
    I'm pretty sure most of the arguments will be the same, except the first.

    However the process of robo-insemination is far too complex for the human mind!

    I see you're getting a head start!

    That's GW's own fault for suing in the US.

    Doesn't matter if the result is correct or not (only the legally binding result matters).

    Juries don't work for cases like this, no real argument there.

    Juries don't know what they are doing most of the time because they aren't knowledgable in IP laws. I'd prefer a judge or expert panel.

    Note the part in that post where most hosts will just not bother looking into whether or not its a valid request before doing the take down. Reference the whole Amazon Space Marine thing (which I'm sure that the endless GW crusaders around here are still defending GW for) where Amazon pulled the "offending" book before actually looking into the nature of the request and whether it was valid or not.

    In this case Google clearly has an automated process for dealing with this and I really doubt a human ever read the DMCA complaint before action was taken on Natfka's blog.

    After the initial takedown request has been processed, the "offender" has the opportunity to challenge the request, and if they do, GW has I believe 2 weeks to file an official lawsuit otherwise the content is made available again.

    @Psycho: So if GW loses the case, it was just because of American bias?

    GW can't ever be wrong. Remember that if GW's upper management went around and started pimp slapping babies' faces along the street, there is *justification* for their ways.

    Clearly, a small US company been sued by a British multinational? GW don't stand a chance with a Jury, it could only be worse if they held it in Boston...
