Why Do You YouTube?

YouTube preps video fingerprinting

NEW YORK - Google Inc.'s YouTube hopes recognition technology will be in place in September to stop the posting of copyrighted videos on the popular Web site, a lawyer Friday told a judge presiding over copyright lawsuits.
ADVERTISEMENT

The lawyer, Philip S. Beck, told U.S. District Judge Louis L. Stanton in Manhattan that YouTube was working "very intensely and cooperating" with major content providers on a video recognition technology as sophisticated as fingerprint technology the FBI uses.
[...]
Beck said the video recognition technology will allow those holding copyrights on videos to provide a digital fingerprint so that if anyone tries to share a copyrighted video, the system will shut it down within a minute or so.
[...]
Donald B. Verrilli, Jr., a lawyer for Viacom International Inc., said it will take the next year to identify the extent of infringement that continues to happen on "a very massive scale."

"Perhaps the filtering mechanism will help. If so, we'll be very grateful for that," he said.

Viacom sought $1 billion in damages for what it said was the unauthorized viewing of its programming from MTV, Comedy Central and other networks, such as "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart." In their lawsuit, the soccer league and indie music publisher sought unspecified damages and any profits YouTube made as a result of the sharing of copyrighted videos.

YouTube said in response to the lawsuits that it goes beyond what is required under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which gives Web hosts protection from copyright lawsuits so long as they comply with requests to remove unauthorized material.

Yeah I don't know about you. The reason I go to the YouTubes is to corporate media crap that somebody has posted.


He said the company planned to have the technology in place in the fall, "hopefully in September."

Netflix's stock, Web site both go down

SAN FRANCISCO - Netflix Inc.'s stock price plunged to its lowest point in more than two years Tuesday after the online DVD rental leader reported the first quarterly customer losses in its history and dimmed its earnings outlook for the rest of the year.
ADVERTISEMENT

To make matters worse, Netflix's Web site — the hub of its rental system — went down Monday evening and remained inaccessible as of Tuesday afternoon (EDT). Spokesman Steve Swasey attributed the outage to an unanticipated problem that he declined to describe. Engineers hoped to fix the trouble by 2 p.m. EDT.

Netflix had been in the process of updating its computers to reflect price reductions that took effect Tuesday.

I didn't get my piece of the settlement so screw 'em.

Apple shares fall on iPhone numbers

AT&T — the iPhone's exclusive carrier — said it activated 146,000 iPhones on June 29 and 30, a number that disappointed investors following some analyst forecasts that Apple would sell 500,000 or more iPhones in its first weekend.
[...]
CIBC said it expects Apple and AT&T to boost their marketing push for the iPhone and the companies could introduce a new model in November — earlier than expected — that operates on a faster network. The two models now available cost $499 and $599.

Are you fuckin kidding me?!? Not only are these stupid shits surprised they didn't sell more of the damn things. But they had planed to release new models before the POS even got cold.

Shit, the Samsung SCH-a990 is like 130 bucks now and when my current contract is up next year it will probably be going for a two, or three fer one deal.

Stickam Is For Porn?

Turns out Stickam is owned and operated by a somebody who runs cam girls who play for pay sites.

Accuser Says Web Site for Teenagers Has X-Rated Link

On its Web site and in press reports, Stickam says that it is owned by Advanced Video Communications, or AVC, a three-year-old Los Angeles company that sells video conferencing and e-commerce services to businesses in Japan and other Asian countries.

But according to Alex Becker, a former vice president at Stickam, and internal company documents, Advanced Video Communications is managed and owned by Wataru Takahashi, a Japanese businessman who also owns and operates DTI Services, a vast network of Web sites offering live sex shows over Web cameras. Mr. Becker alleges that Stickam shares office space, employees and computer systems with the pornographic Web sites.

The sites, with names like DxLive, EXshot and JgirlParadise, use the same video technology as Stickam to link paying users with performers in one-on-one video chat sessions.

Mr. Becker recently left Stickam after four months there and said he was speaking out because the company was not doing enough to protect young users of its service. Mr. Becker also alleges that he witnessed Stickam employees deleting thousands of e-mail messages sent to the company’s addresses set up for customer service and abuse complaints, without reading or responding to them.

Mr. Becker criticized what he said was the practice of sharing employees among Stickam and the pornographic sites.

The workers at Mr. Takahashi’s companies “only know how to conduct an adult Web site,” Mr. Becker said. “They don’t get it that there are predators on the Internet.”

But the predators are the kids with a handful fulltime child stalkers thrown in.

Though Stickam remains relatively small compared to Web giants like MySpace and YouTube, several thousand of its mostly teenage members log onto the site each night to broadcast their own lives, often from their bedrooms. They put on makeshift talk shows, flirt with other members in video chat rooms, and often, if they are female, field repeated requests to take off their clothes.

And it is all kid on kid. You want to find these little juvee pedos search the tags; pedobear, /b/, barracks, brothers, partyvan, and chan. It's not a request to take off their clothes it's random spouted set of demands. TOGTFO along with shoe on head. I think some predator tried to show them how to work a girl at onetime but it all just turned into a okay now lets try this and this, without even caring if this person is that type person. And when that doesn't work frustration and even more randomness ensues. Harassment is a better word.

Anyone can tune into a user’s video feed, unless the user restricts it to friends only. Members must be 14 or older to sign up, but the site does not attempt to verify ages.

Stickam is not a site for teenagers. The internet was designed with kids in mind and it shouldn't be. The problem with Stickam is now it came up with a block on anyone over 18yrs entering a room created by someone under 18yrs unless your their friend.
