Welcome, welcome. This is the homepage for the group project by Adrian, Jeff and Mouse. For our project, we focused on some of the legal battles the video sharing site YouTube.com has been in because of their entanglement with copyright laws. Below is a profile of the site, as well as links to its various sections, which focus on some specific examples of YouTube's lawsuits, the copyright laws that come into play as well as how YouTube is affected by them, and Larry Lessig's point of view on the issue. Enjoy.
