Problems do not seem to end up for the film industry and for online video sites too. Pirated versions of latest movies are uploaded successfully into sites like YouTube and Google video and viewed by thousands daily. The Viacom $1 billion lawsuit burns were still fresh for Google and here they are hanging up in the middle with National Legal and Policy Center posting a list of 50 movies whom they have found and flagged in Google video.

For those excited with the news that they might get chance to view these movies online, NLPC hasn't uploaded links to these movies so as to avoid any further damages. But after reading the article I went on to search for them on Google Video and was easily able to find the links with little digging. Sad for Google. I also wont be uploading the links here to avoid any piracy issues!

Ironically, many other Internet operations such as MySpace, TorrentSpy, DailyMotion and Break.com have set up filtering systems to block copyrighted material. Google is a $158 Billion company with arguably the most advanced search technology in the world. The argument that Google cannot block pirated content because of technological or financial reasons is laughable.

NLPC has also uploaded a pdf file with screen shots of those movies.
