McCain seeks special 'fair use' copyright rules for VIPs
Topic: Miscellaneous 12:07 pm EDT, Oct 15, 2008

John McCain's Presidential campaign has discovered the remix-unfriendly aspects of American copyright law, after several of the candidate's campaign videos were pulled from YouTube. McCain has now discovered the rights holder friendly nature of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which forces remixers to fight an uphill battle to prove that their work is a 'fair use.' However, instead of calling for an overhaul of the much hated law, McCain is calling for VIP treatment for the remixes made by political campaigns.
