YouTube removes EAV's "God Bless America" due to copyright claim
Breaking News
Summary
Early this morning, YouTube removed a video of the Erste Allgemeine Verunsicherung (EAV) song "God Bless America" due to a copyright claim by Sony Music Entertainment. The video had been posted on YouTube since 2005 and had over 1 million views.
The removal of the video is a blow to fans of EAV, who are known for their satirical and politically charged songs. "God Bless America" is one of the band's most popular songs, and it has been used in many political protests and demonstrations.
It is unclear why Sony Music Entertainment decided to file a copyright claim against the video. The song was written by EAV and released on their album "100 Jahre EAV" in 2005. Sony Music Entertainment does not own the rights to the song.
The removal of the video has sparked outrage among EAV fans, who are calling for YouTube to reinstate it. A petition has been started on Change.org, and it has already gathered over 10,000 signatures.
YouTube has not yet commented on the removal of the video. However, it is likely that the video will be reinstated if EAV can prove that they own the rights to the song.
