…starting with my daughter dancing to Nirvana.

Interesting “warning” from Facebook this morning…

We have removed your video entitled “Smells Like A Roll & Sliced Sausage” uploaded at 8:42am November 26th, 2009. We did this because it appears to contain copyrighted material owned by a third party, such as a video clip or background audio. If you believe this material was removed by mistake, you may file a counter notice of alleged infringement by following the link below.

Please note that if you re-upload this video without filing a counter notice, or if you upload another video that infringes on the rights of a third party, we may remove the content. This could cause your access to the Facebook Video application, or your Facebook account itself, to be disabled.

You can judge for yourself whether the clip in question is a threat to the current and/or future financial security of Messrs Love, Grohl and Novoselic…

Considering the clip was originally uploaded to Youtube and I can simply add it to my Facebook profile, it seems a bit futile on Facebook’s part to remove  it.  It limits the effectiveness of their video upload service if it’s so easy to fall foul of copyright laws.  It’s even more futile when different sites operate different policies and Youtube don’t even stick to their terms and conditions of use.

Anyone had any similar experiences?
