Wow that's crazy. What if you recorded things when passing by but not on purpose for some quick 'fame'?

Quote:

? New law in France forbids filming and Net posting of real-world violence
? Critics call it a clumsy, near-totalitarian effort to battle "happy slapping"
? Violators of the law will be subject to up to 5 years' jail and ?75,000 in fines

nuts

still theres some big gap legally in between the real world and youtube, we had some major shit with a guy shot on a roof and someone else - whos still mia - filming it. It appeared on youtube and the whole lawsuit fucked up.

This is 2007, you gotta deal with stuff like this. But this french law is fucked up imho, first turkey not allowing youtube as a whole site now this.

A mess.
