Anti-Islamic video actress suing just about everybody
http://j.mp/NS5zfV (Hollywood Reporter)
"On top of fraud, unfair business practices and libel - among other
causes of action - she's now asserting copyright claims. In doing so,
Garcia aims to make some history. She wants to prove that actors are
entitled to a piece of the copyright when "authoring" their
performances on film. Further, she continues to fight YouTube -- this
time asserting that the video-sharing giant cannot lean on the safe
harbor provision of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act because it
failed to expeditiously remove the video at the behest of a copyright
owner. Namely, her. And if all that isn't sufficiently compelling,
Garcia also is suing the hundreds of individuals who have re-posted
the video on YouTube."
