Blender Foundation Video Taken Down On YouTube For Copyright Violation

Posted by timothy on Saturday April 5, 2014 @12:18PM from the now-it's-ours dept.

An anonymous reader writes "As if the automated take downs on Youtube weren't already bad enough, today fans of the popular open source 3D software Blender were greeted by a copyright take down notice for their third open movie, Sintel, despite it being released under a Creative Commons license: 'This video contains content from Sony Pictures Movies & Shows, who has blocked it on copyright grounds.' It is believed that the takedown was a result of Sony Electronics adding Sintel to their official 4k demo pool."

The name of my non-profit is "Sony Sucks, Ass."
You think that would be OK?

No, because you seem to be calling me an ass. Remove the comma and all is well.
