some basic information for any shot video footage of the event:
depanding on your footage cam spec, another perhaps better option for far better quality in sound,vision and filesize.

as well as YouTube, you might also put an AVC encoded copy on the Vuse/Azureus3 torrent network.

for simplicity, just run your edited footage through VLC and use the H.264 transcode mode inside an mpeg container.

AVC, aka(H.264/Mpeg4-part10) being the better option today.

they even have an HiDef user content section , grab a copy and run it in Vuse GUI mode to see a selection of content and its quality, far better than tube...

We in this country (ies - from where I am posting) have the rights and ability to challenge this kind of thing.
Alexander, if you were on the same crusade in China you would have a tin hat on and be waiting for the sounds of black helicopters.
sure, we all get that..., but the simple fact is while its commendable 80/20Thinking and others are giving a % of the take to 3rd world and other related rights projects world wide.

who exactly is looking after the rights we all assume we have that our commonwealth mothers and fathers, grand parents etc have died for in this country and elsewere?

weres the diligence in this country (or upcoming in the US for that matter) making sure we dont sleepwalk into the surveillance society.

we already had the past CCTV, and thats now a money maker were you cant get easy access to the footage even after sending a DPA request, the same might end up being true of the IDcard in whatever form they slip through, and now this DPI interweb connected ISP/Phorm part of the puzzle is nearly upon us.

do you really want this to be yet another hourse+gate+close, situation by not using diligence right now, and for as long as it takes, using any lawful means available.

they even bypassed the usual "we need it to uphold/stop the law breaking" excuses, and went directly to the "its free and good for you" PR.

we all know just like the CCTV, the Govt and other 3rd partys probably think they can cash in on the data gathering later big time...,the UK CRA's for one concreate example looking to use this same DPI layer7 kit for profit.

diligence is required, and right now, IN THIS COUNTRY.

I myself am a BT Broadband user who has become tired of the lack of information and answers on the BT Forums plus the editing and closure of threads that do not appease them along with the suspension of several members for the same reason.

I was one of those BT members that was used in the 2007 BT/Phorm trial without my prior knowledge or consent and I still have the proof with the cookie which I still have as evidence should it be required in the future. In the cookie string it has a date of 1-Jul-2007 17:33:06.

I have signed the E-Petition, written to my local MP twice and have written to the BT Chairman, to which he has failed to respond, surprise surprise.

I await the outcome of this PR stunt on Tuesday before deciding about jumping ship to a NON phorm ISP.

more to the point, rather than jump right now (doesnt that make two BT people posting here now that have proof? i forget) cant he be helped to put his case to scotland yard and have them give him a case No. that can be followed up with the injunction as was talked about.....way back now.


or are we leaving that to another day

im suprised no bobbys,lawyers or QC's have posted to this thread, or at least not publicly announced their job as a sidenote to their personal comments so far...

iv asked a few and pointed them here so there must be some at least reading.

Another tack to take will be to write to an insurance broker and ask for a quote for insurance against the risk of theft of data by someone who has access to our ISPs. I am still pondering this would be grateful for thoughts/ideas.
can you make it available in plain old text format, not everyone has MS products or compatable MS Doc readers.
