Yep, that's real. Try it for yourself. Here's the link:


EDIT - It's noted that this would NOT be the first takedown on youtube... but it's the first time I've personally seen "blocked it in your country on copyright grounds".

Sounds like it's just a really friendly way of saying "CISPA said NO" to me...

 LMAO... That's a long and strange story... But involves "YouTube video of the day" type thread concepts and then you know how YouTube is... You inevitably end up on one of those videos asking yourself how the hell you got there...

This is one of those cases.

Oddly, "part 2" of the video is still available (at the present moment) which is how I ended up on part 1... Kinda worked my way backwards on this in one of those "oh good gawd, you've got to be kidding me" moments, thinking "ok how exactly did this come to be?"... The end result being a  posting in the "looks CISPA to me" category.

No, I didn't bother digging for other copies of the video, the "CISPA aspect" diverted me pretty effectively (but obviously not for the reasons they intended). As you mentioned, if I really wanted to... ... Heh Naaa...  :o
