Google gettin’ sued over videos
Every web-based company wants to be as cool and popular as YouTube, just not like this. A recent Google report indicated that Google Video, the obviously-named video segment of the ever expanding company I like to call Googie, is being sued for copyright infringement. That’s twice as bad considering that Google has acquired YouTube and may have to deal with those lawsuits as well.
The most recent development in the case is that a French film company, Flach Films, has actually filed a lawsuit against French Google Video in Paris. Apparently their film le Monde Selon Bush ("The World According to Bush") was inappropriately streamed 43,000 times, essentially making Google a publisher of the film. Flach is seeking monetary compensation. Since Google’s report did not name a company, it is unclear if this is the same company or an additional lawsuit.
Of course, getting sued isn’t a de facto guilty verdict, but it sure doesn’t bode well for Googie.
