10 Jul 2008A federal judge has ordered Google to turn over information about every user who has ever watched a video on YouTube. The ruling came as part of a lawsuit brought by Viacom over the posting of copyrighted material on YouTube. Google is resisting the request, saying it would allow Viacom to “likely be able to determine the viewing and video uploading habits of YouTube’s users.” The Electronic Frontier Foundation called the judgment “a set-back to privacy rights.”
Hmm and here I am uploading videos to YouTube like there’s no mañana. What are some good alternatives?

1 Feb 2006VivirLatino is proud to announce that we are now officially a news source on Google News! Now, when you are browsing Google News for Latino-related news stories, you’ll find VL headlines right alongside those of “big guy” media.
We’re hoping that this exposure on such a highly-trafficked news site will give added exposure to the Latino community and in the process give others who may be unfamiliar with issues affecting the community access to information and perspectives that may not be represented in traditional media. Increasing VL’s presence on the web will also be highly beneficial to the sponsors that make this site possible. Thanks to them and to the readers who have made the first few months of VivirLatino a success.

A few of us have heard the anecdote about the news site that reported a story about some poor person who had been hacked apart, body packed into a suitcase, only to have Google AdSense serve a distasteful ad for Samsonite luggage next to the article. AdSense works in mysterious ways. And if not mysterious, unpredictable. Sometimes its technology associates keywords placed by advertisers and keywords placed by AdSense participants, like VL, correctly. When that happens, I think it’s just luck. In our case, we are not getting very lucky.
VivirLatino is a daily publication published by 2 Mujeres Media, dedicated to featuring all the latest politics, culture, entertainment of interest to the diverse and influential Latino and Latina community in the U.S.
