YouTube removed the flotilla satire video 'We Con The World' because of a silly "copyright infringement claim" by Warner/Chappell Music, Inc. Well over two million people watched the song before it was shut down today. CLEARLY, the video was satire and falls under the 'fair use' satire/parody distinction, but Warner were most certainly under political pressure to shut it down, and YouTube folded like a deck of cards. Here is the law.
