yes, it's true. Viacom filed multiple bogus DMCA claims against us for an event that they invited us to. This has cost us money and killed our Youtube account for two days and counting. horrible

I read that Mahalo isnt suing and I applaud that. Calacanis always seemed fairly stand up and not suing is the stand up thing to do. Just keep the we want sushi attitude and it will do you more good.

Maybe YouTube can make up for the error by Featuring Mahalo Daily on their Front page for a couple days

Jason, I take that you've filed a DMCA counter claim

Wow. And I thought it was exciting when we moms got suspended for our breast feeding montage....

Jason, just make a custom channel at www.magnify.net and scrap Youtube.

"filed multiple bogus DMCA claims" - the key word here is bogus - fr what I under stand this implies that Viacoms Legal Consul (A) does not know DMCA laws (b), did not do a due dilgence revie before filing DMCA. Did they not contacting you with a C&D prior to the DMCA notice ? Would you care to pub the C&D at least? The :term "bogus" is certainly a funny word. Jason, you should counter sue i, because they after all invited you to the event and you had permissions to record and distribute the content correct
