Okay I could see them temporarily putting the squuze on YouTube and such. No more Sunday Night Football streamed online, with 4 cameras unique to the web...
But that is as far as I think they should take it.
But then again, swine flu hasn’t come close to being the problem that seasonal flu is.
36,000 a year die from regular flu.
I don’t even think it’s YouTube stuff. I think it is those sites that allow people to download entire movies and television series. I have trouble with the idea that millions of people sick with the flu will stay home and download movies when they’re not throwing up and coughing and writhing in pain. As the report pointed out, the social networking sites are used by various government agencies to get the word out on all kinds of things, and I believe YouTube falls in that category. They are not going to shut down the sites that they use. I have no opinion about the critical necessity of football games, because I don’t want to get flamed!
