Embedding YouTube Videos may become a Felony!

[Hal-9000]

so if I don't pay to see a vid on youtube, how is it a felony to link that vid to another site?

does youtube somehow lose the traffic hits?

I'm sooo confused

Shit like this just makes me want to quit the web altogether.

This thread needed an embedded video.

This is the most retarded thing I have ever heard. It's not like you can't get back to the original video on YouTube by going through the embedded one, and it's stupid that I could get in trouble because I linked/embedded a video. That is fucking RETARDED! So I hope that if this does get passed, that YouTube gets rid of the embed tool beneath all the videos, at the very least.

How could it be enforced on websites based outside the US..

Its another example of profit becoming more important than art or expression
