Bad Pirate Squirrel! Bad, Bad Pirate Squirrel Who Doesn’t Understand (Or Care) About Copyright!!

Attention, all YouTube users who uphold infringing material and get caught. You might find yourself in school with a squirrel dressed as a pirate. YouTube has created a video to explain (in four minutes) to those who post in violation of the DMCA what they’ve done wrong and (sort of) how to do it right–“Why not make your own video?” The video is aimed at young people, although adults might find it informative as well.
