UK Cabinet Office Dinged For Violating The Copyright Of The UK Cabinet Office
from the left-hand,-meet-right-hand dept
Last week, the UK's Cabinet Office got plenty of publicity for putting some videos on YouTube, suggesting that it was a good way to get certain messages out to the public. In fact, in that article, the reporter sounded surprised, noting that the UK government is considered somewhat "backwards on understanding tech issues." Well, perhaps people were a bit too quick to congratulate them on embracing the new technology. Today comes the news that the video has been pulled from YouTube for copyright violations. Whose copyright? Apparently the UK Cabinet Office's. Yes, it appears one group within the Office is accusing a different group of violating its own copyrights in putting its own video on YouTube without permission. So, perhaps they're not as backwards as people thought concerning new technologies, but they have a ways to go in understanding internal communications.

Of Course! It is Stupidity!
stupidity and ignorance!".
Long ago the stupid died as the tigers would eat them.
Now they manage to get a job where they cannot be fired for stupidity. This is unfortunat and bad for the society
where they help govern!

this reminds me
I walked into my office and asked myself for a day off.
Well, I had to refuse and told myself that I clearly didn't understand the realities of the marketplace.
So, I wasn't taking that lying down and protested.
I ended up taking myself to binding arbitration ;)
