Judge Denies Ron Paul's YouTube Lawsuit

That's good, I don't know what Paul was thinking. He was just setting a bad precedent.

Yeah, how dare he stand up to an orchestrated smear from an opposing campaign.

Every day Media turns over information on IP, Names, Addresses of internet entities that have posted; comments, videos, and communications content avenues to government and/or corporations.

Yes, but that's their decision. Google usually goes to the line defending their users from people that want to reveal them.

Well there's no solid proof over that. I was referring to the fact he wants to force Google/Youtube via courts to hand over the identity (IP Address etc) of the Youtube user account who created a video. Doesn't sound like him at all.

I thought that this only denied expedited discovery, as we came to this conclusion when it came out a week ago.

Correct on both counts. Mods should lock as this is a dupli/tripli/quadrupicate thread

Its politics. It happens all the time. If he would have just swept it under the rug and denounced the video then it would be a dead issue right now. Pick your battles and this is not one.
