This is an online article i came across a couple of days ago in regards to copyright infringement. A facebook user uploaded a video on facebook, and the video has been reported(by facebook) as breaking the copyright law because it contains audio owned by a third party.
The video in question is a demo reel of the user performing martial arts and acrobatics; and the audio is one (1) minute sample of Disco Connection by Isaac Hayes.
Facebook wants the user to either remove the video or get permission by the copyright holders to use the audio.
Will facebook, a private company in this case is only providing a vessel for the user to upload the video be in trouble for copyright infringement?
