Eddie,

As of last week, the secondary producer clause was struck down (yay!).
Blip.tv can't get into trouble for some jerk posting porn to their
service.

I say can't, but everyone needs to be aware that individual DA's
have prosecuted (and persecuted) people for selling/providing adult
material even when the material was not sold, targeted, distributed or
otherwise meant for their local community. So, while the law no longer
requires blip.tv to have all the underage reporting and documentation,
that's no guarantee that some overzealous porn task force at the FBI
won't decide to take it upon themselves to go after them, and the
resulting legal quagmire can land Enric and all the blip.tv servers in
court for years. Also, if some jerk posts child porn, Enric has to
remove it immediately, even if it's not theirs. [And it'd be smart to
call the cops if that happened, in case you can track down the source
and fry them over an open grill.]

We've been watching this very closely in my house, since hubby's biz
depends on it. Check freespeechcoalition.com for updates on free
speech issues in the adult industry if you're interested.

Stephanie,

Can you point me to any documentation on this secondary producer
clause and what it means?

I've been wondering about how sites like iFilm.com and YouTube.com
persist seemingly without liability even though they willfully display
content they have no right to broadcast (SNL clips and other content
they do not have permission to distribute).

Does this clause cover sites like this or does it only relate to pornography?

Secondary producer is a part of the 2257 wording which (in my
understanding) is strictlly for porn, and used under the pretense of
stopping child porn. (age of performers documentation, etc.)

It is not related to using others' content.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: XXX on Blip.tv

2006-01-02 Thread Stephanie Bryant
As Halcyon said-- this is only relating to pornography, not copyright.

Under the new rules, sites that redistribute adult content (including
websites) would have had to maintain a separate copy of the
documentation (drivers license, model release form, age verification
form) of each actor appearing in every item they publish.  Previously,
this documentation was only kept by the studio producing the material.
On the back of every porn DVD and in the fine print on every primary
producing adult website, you can find an address where these records
could be inspected during business hours. Any adult studio maintains
these records as a matter of their business practices. To require it
of every website owner who scans and posts a DVD cover for purposes of
selling that DVD is a fast way to putting porn websites out of
business or offshore (the way the rules were changed, without any
congressional oversight, means that there cannot be a significant
financial impact of the rules change-- Gonzales basically lied
flat-out in changing these rules when he said they didn't have an
impact).

Anyway, here's a fun entanglement with copyright, though: Under
current copyright laws, a copyright violation is a civil offense,
resulting in civil damages (fines). However, if the secondary producer
clause had remained, someone copying a DVD and re-publishing it would
not just be a copyright violation. The aggrieved party could then call
the FBI, tell the FBI they don't have documentation and have the
offender thrown in prison. The first offense is worth 5 years of hard
time. Each subsequent offense is worth 10 years, and the rules were
supposedly retroactive, meaning they could get you for not having
documentation even before you were required to keep it.  I think most
of us can agree that 10 years in prison for breaking a copyright on a
legal product is excessive (10 years in prison for breaking child porn
laws is not).

These rules, by the way, don't actually catch child pornographers, who
work outside of the adult entertainment industry. The industry polices
its own and effectively shuts out anyone with ties to child porn.

Feel free, Andreas. Calling bullshit on it is exactly what the Free
Speech Coalition's been doing since day 1. What you have to understand
is that this was not a law that was passed by Congress. It's a change
to the rules that an old law gave the DOJ the power to make. The rules
change underwent only the barest amount of oversight, and now the
system of checks and balances has to go to work to overturn it and
show it to be unconstitutional.

In the original rules, there could be a situation in which an underage
actor appeared in a work and was later discovered to be underage (a la
Traci Lords). Destroying copies of that work from the records-keeping
files would be an offense worth 10 years in prison, but keeping a copy
of that work would be a child pornography charge, also worth
significant prison time. An exception was quickly articulated for such
cases, but the original rules, as written, were terrible, draconian,
and full of clauses to criminalize an otherwise legitimate industry.

Oh, and the clause that will require independent webcam girls to
publish their business addresses (usually also their private homes) on
the Internet still stands, with the argument that nobody's been killed
yet, so these women don't deserve the most basic privacy protection.

This isn't FUD. It's what's happening. Nobody wants to cover it in the
mainstream press, because the law in question has the word underage
in it, so the most simplistic sound-byte impression is that if you
oppose these rules, then you're in favor of child porn. That's the
real FUD.

There's also a deluge of spam on open systems. Actions to hold itback are worthy.
Spam, Dupes, Tests, and non-vlog video content are some of the reasons why I have chosen not to pull in all the 'feeds' that exist out there onto my site at vlogdir.com. Someone needs to take a few minutes of their time to add a videoblog entry to vlogdir. This person, so far 
99.9% of the time, is typcially the vlog/channel author. They are interested to share and expose their content.My letting VLOGDIR be a user-driven and thus commuity-driven directory, it acts as a very passive filter. I dont have to worry about removing crap... once or twice I had to remove a commercial entry that was not a vlog, just some infomercial... but I deal with it as they come in. 
If I took in all the feeds from all the different sites out there, i'd have a headache that i dont need and more noise in the directory for the audience. Though vlogdir is an open system, at this point i see a benefit to not sucking in a spitting out every single rs feed that may exist across a group of video hosting sites. Less is More and all that. I'm not saying it is right or wrong, just is what it is right now based on my opinion and specifically related to the core directory. I could in an hour or so build a new page that takes in all the newest video posted and generate and aggreagate an RSS feed for it. I might do that actually. But that would be just a vlogospheric feed and not the actual directory. So, their are ways to make availabel the actual video content that is being spewed out from all over... without potentially corrupting a directory with the everything and anything system.
I have not had any porn vlogs added to vlogdir but if they come, i'll evaluate what to do (go ahead, insert joke here).On 1/1/06, Enric

 Sexual content is just a type of content.Like extreme sports.If it is labeled properly, I don't see the problem. Of course, if a site says , NO PORN then they have to undertake the
 tide-fighting battle tof trying to keep adult off of an open system.There's also a deluge of spam on open systems.Actions to hold itback are worthy.-- Enric I know that 
Veoh.com allows adult and gives you the ability to tag it as such.That way, unles you change your default settings, you would never see the risque content in searches or on the site.

blip.tv It is also  happening in Dailymotion.Although a lot softer core.The video I am  talking about is called XXX and was posted by LeNoX.I don't know  about you but, although I have nothing against pornography, but for me
  these video sites both blip and dailymotion used to be a safehaven for  me away from porn where I could concentrate, more on artisticvalue and  creativity rather than having to suppress the urge to run to the
  bathroom every five minutes for tissue paper.I have found that the  worst thing you need when you have vloggers block is to get suckedinto  porn.Or maybe I take this whole thing a bit too seriously, I wish to
  make films, I wish to share my creativity, it's enough when corpo's  come on ranting about companies, I think that sucks also, big time.   Paul Knight
