10:49Now PlayingCops love copyright! So as everyone who’s uploaded a video to YouTube knows, copyright is one of the biggest headaches you will run into. Running into a copyright infringement, frivolous or not, can de-monetize your video or even have it removed entirely. Cops, knowing this, have begun to do something pretty sinister: use copyright to prevent videos of them violating civil rights from being disseminated.
James Burch, policy director of the Anti Police-Terror Project (APTP), was standing in front of an Oakland, CA, court house last week when he was approached by a police officer. This officer demanded that they remove the banner they were holding, and when the two started arguing, someone began to record. The cop, noticing this, started playing some Taylor Swift songs, knowing that the copyright disputes that would result would bury the video or even get it banned from social media. “record all you want… “I just know it can’t be posted to YouTube,” the cop can be heard saying.
Burch and the APTP were at the courthouse in support of Steven Taylor, a 33 yearold Black man who was murdered by police officer Jason Fletcher of the San Leandro PD during a mental health crisis. APTP is asking all those watching this to donate to support the surviving 3 children of Steven Taylor here
