Olympic censorship
The International Olympic Committee filed (via) a copyright infringement claim yesterday against a YouTube video of a Free Tibet protest at the Chinese Consulate in Manhattan Thursday night.
The video depicts demonstrators conducting a candlelight vigil and projecting a protest video onto the consulate building. The the projection features recent footage of Tibetan monks being arrested as well as riffs on the Olympic logo, representing them as handcuffs.
Inevitably enough, YouTube pulled the video, but it can still be seen on Vimeo.
