The Electronic Frontier Foundation posted a video asking you to contact them at information@eff.org if you received a notification in February 2007 telling you that YouTube had removed your content at the request of Viacom, and you believe that this removal was unfair (either because your video was fair use -- usage for parody, comment, criticism or news reporting -- or because it was non-Viacom content). The EFF protects netizen"s rights since 1990 and accepts your donations.
