Why, YouTube, why!?
It's only Thursday, but for some reason, YouTube pulled Rebecca Black's ridiculously popular video for her song "Friday."
According to TechCrunch, the video had collected over 167,000,000 views.
A spokesperson for YouTube said, ”YouTube takes copyright infringement very seriously. When we receive a complaint alleging that a video infringes another person or company’s copyrights, we remove that video. Users who believe that a video was removed in error can appeal the copyright takedown.”
Vague.
Clearly Ark Music Factory, who are the geniuses behind the viral video, are up to something. Whatever it is, we'll have to wait and see. Until then, we'll just have to settle for Keyboard Cat doing his rendition of the awful song.
