Cuban: Upload porn to YouTube Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Mark Cuban says Google is lying when they say they can't prevent copyrighted content from appearing on YouTube and Google Video.

His proof is that you can't find porn on those sites, he assumes people are uploading it, but Google is keeping it off, somehow. Presumably if they can do that, they can keep people from uploading full-length movies.

To help prove his point he asks people to upload their personal porn collections, and see if they get through.

"The protoblogger." - NY Times.

"Helped popularize blogging, podcasting and RSS." - Time.

"RSS was born in 1997 out of the confluence of Dave Winer's 'Really Simple Syndication' technology, used to push out blog updates, and Netscape's 'Rich Site Summary', which allowed users to create custom Netscape home pages with regularly updated data flows." - Tim O'Reilly.
