SOPA supporter WWE censors Mike Mozart for doing a negative review

Roler42 · 03-02-2012, 07:26 AM

So... SOPA may not have passed and they're pushing ACTA, but still, our dear WWE, supporters of SOPA already started using power to censor others, namely Mike Mozart, one of the most vocal protesters of SOPA

They took down his video review of that dumb John cena costume trough a copyright claim

His response:

I personally really feel like this guy is a sensationalist. He is too smart to fully believe the stuff he spouts. Some of his points are valid but far too exaggerated for my tastes.

This is like the Megaupload* thing. "SOPA didn't pass? We don't need your dang law, we'll shut you down anyway".

*Not that it was totally wrong, in that case. There were a ton of pirates and all.

This is totally covered under fair use if he was indeed reviewing it.
