L'Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie fête samedi ses 40 ans. La langue
française ne se porte pas si mal, notamment grâce à l'essor
démographique africain. "Les chiffres que nous publierons en septembre sur le
français dans le monde, à l'occasion du prochain sommet de la Francophonie de
Montreux (Suisse) montreront une nette progression par rapport à 2007", a indiqué
Alexandre Wolff, responsable de l'observatoire de la langue française au sein de
l'Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF).
Switzerland’s reputation as a safe haven for undeclared wealth was in tatters last night

With the release of court filings in the three-year old copyright infringement suit between
Viacom and YouTube, we’ve seen the video share site argue that it is
not liable for infringing videos uploaded to its site, as it claims protection under the safe
harbor provision of the Digital Milennium Copyright Act (DMCA).
But in Viacom’s filing for a partial summary judgment, it makes the case that the
site’s founders — and later executives of acquirer Google — turned a blind eye
to copyrighted material in an effort to drastically grow the site’s user base. And since
YouTube’s founders were aware of infringement and chose to do nothing about it, Viacom
argues that the company is liable under the Supreme Court’s Grokster decision,
which found that a site operating with the intent of infringing should not be protected by the
DMCA.
Using internal emails that were passed between YouTube founders Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and
Jawed Karim, Viacom paints the picture of YouTube as a young company whose leaders were willing
to grow its user base at any cost. For instance, the filing states that Chen urged his associates
in one email to “concentrate all of our efforts in building up our numbers as aggressively
as we can through whatever tactics, however evil.” The comment notably contrasts with
future purchaser Google’s “don’t be evil” mantra — but more
importantly, that attitude set the stage for a number of decisions that the YouTube founders made
to grow at the expense of rights holders that it was infringing on.
YouTube didn’t always ignore the sensitive copyright issue. At one point during the summer
of 2005, for instance, the site’s founders removed “some of the most obvious
infringing video from YouTube to give the impression of copyright compliance,” the
Viacom filing claims. However, they also chose to leave a good deal of infringing content up,
believing that enabling users to search for less high-profile content was worth the risk.
According to the filing, Chen wrote in an email, “That way, the perception is that we are
concerned about this type of material and we’re actively monitoring it. [But the] actual
removal of this content will be in varying degrees. That way . . . you can find truckloads of . .
. copyrighted content . . . [if] you [are] actively searching for it.”
And at one point, YouTube founder Jawed Karim even uploaded infringing content to the site
himself, which drew some criticism from Chen. In an email, Chen acknowledged, “We’re
going to have a tough time defending the fact that we’re not liable for the copyrighted
material on the site because we didn’t put it up when one of the co-founders is blatantly
stealing content from other sites and trying to get everyone to see it.”
But for the most part, Viacom argues that the founders mainly did nothing about the copyright
issue, even though internally they knew it was driving a large portion of their traffic. In an
email exchange between the founders, Chen estimated that 80 percent of the site’s traffic
was driven by pirated videos, and opposed taking them down proactively because, “if you
remove the potential copyright infringements . . . site traffic and virality will drop to maybe
20% of what it is.”
While Viacom tries to make the case that YouTube’s founders knew the extent of the
infringement taking place and chose to do nothing about it, it argues that Google was also well
aware of the site’s infringement issues at purchase. As part of Google’s due
diligence into YouTube, financial advisor Credit Suisse analyzed the site’s content and
estimated that more than 60 percent of video views appeared on premium content, but YouTube only
had a license for about 10 percent of those videos, according to Viacom.
Furthermore, Viacom claims that Google not only acquired YouTube despite those problems, but it
chose initially to take the same approach as YouTube’s founders by ignoring copyright
issues. Rather than screen videos prior to putting them on the site, as Google had done with its
own video site, Google Video, it allowed YouTube to continue operating without any pre-emptive
enforcement policies in place.
All this, Viacom argues, suggests that YouTube and Google should not be protected by the DMCA.
Like Grokster, the company argues, “Google and YouTube were not just innocent and unwitting
accomplices to infringement perpetrated by YouTube users. Defendants operated YouTube with the
unlawful objective of using infringing material to explosively build their user base and become
the dominant video website on the Internet.”
