i like Cory Doctorow, he does good research


For many years, people have toyed with the idea
<https://twitter.com/earthboy__/status/1152959161455566857> of preventing
their ideological opponents' demonstrations and rallies from showing up
online by playing copyrighted music in the background, causing all
video-clips from the event to be filtered away before the message could
spread.

This isn’t a fanciful strategy: footage from US Black Lives Matter
demonstrations is vanishing from the Internet
<https://www.lumendatabase.org/blog_entries/background-audio-takedowns> because
the demonstrators played amplified music during their protests.
