    • Viacom has no right to invade my privacy. This is an outrage! So the police cannot invade my privacy without a warrant but a corporation can be free to do it at will, ridiculous.

    • What? This makes absolutely no sense, punish Google by making it's video users suffer? Actually this was what Youtube (before joint venture) had planned all along, with sites like downthisvideo.com. The IP listing is what most Websites do all the time as aggregative information (browser, domain, OS, computer type, Web tracks within site, and timestamp) but private info getting out (including whois lookup) is just plain unethical and immoral, and violates constitutional rights as well as Internet child privacy laws. Explain to me the rational here: Copyrighted media is on Youtube (which Google carries), so users try to get around the uploader's fine by creating user content. Now not only the uploader is in hot water but the downloader is too just to find out which content is more popular? If they (Viacom, Disney, MTV, Marvel, Warner Brothers, HBO, Showtime, etc.) didn't force the issue in the first place, there would be no privacy problem. And I thought no nudity was the biggest problem.
