Brazil Court Orders YouTube Shut on Celeb Sex Video

A Brazilian court ordered the popular video sharing service YouTube, a unit of Internet search provider Google Inc., to be shut down until it removes a celebrity sex video from its site, a judicial clerk said Thursday. Daniela Cicarelli, a model and ex-wife of soccer great Ronaldo, sued YouTube after a video of her apparently having sex in shallow water on a beach with her boyfriend was posted to the site.

While I don't agree with shutting YouTube down for an incident like this, I do think they should implement filters so that videos with certain names could not be uploaded once the original has been removed. I think the bigger lesson is to stop leaking your personal porn online.
