Someone stole one of my videos on YouTube & published it as his own. When I discovered everything, I was furious. A friend filmed me raging and raving at my computer screen. The thief was getting hits at twelve times the rate I was. Instead of "getting even", I decided to turn it into a learning experience. This is the story of a video stolen from me on YouTube which now seems destined to be the most popular one I ever published.

(I may totally redo this video with black-stripe subtitles for easier reading.) Having my video stolen by a "master thief" made me reconsider & rethink several core issues about "personal property rights" and the "real reasons" I put videos on the Internet.
