Trouble on YouTube

It is really disturbing to think that it is so easy for someone to create and post a video on YouTube. Any video can be shown to millions of people. The article about a "Teacher's Nightmare" is a perfect example. She was inappropriately taped at a public graduation ceremony, and her image was set to the tune of a Van Halen song. Anyone searching YouTube for "Van Halen" would come across this video. In fact, nearly 200,000 people viewed it. That's scary. Even though it was eventually removed from the site, anyone could have downloaded it. This means that once a video is posted, it might be impossible to make it go away.
