Well said about youtubes’ dilema, they really screwed themselves on this one by being slackers and inconsistent on enforcement of their rules.
I still can’t understand the CoS move here. Don’t they realize that trying to stop and delaying the release of the full Beghe video is only ramping up the press coverage and interest in the interview.

Co$ is a dangerous cult. I feel very sorry for the brainwashed members! It ruins lives. The government must step in soon to stop this evil cult.

Dave2–they’ll welcome you back, naturally.

IF you publicly repudiate your previous statements,
IF you undergo rigorous sec-checks and other auditing,
IF you do a bunch more grovelling and demeaning procedures/lowered conditions.

Its FAR worse for Sea Org who blow, since they’ll probably just be RPF for lyfe, yo. Public who leave and become critics will probably just have the above very expensive courses/auditing levied on them.

So, thats the crack: be willing to be a slave, or pay out your ass.

Terryeo,

You’re a Scientologist, so maybe you can shed light on this for me. You write: “The Churchâ€™s policy is to keep the door open, at least a crack, for people who denounce it.”

But I was under the impression that if you manage to leave the Church, you get declared SP and are therefore fair game. And I was also under the impression that it is very difficult to leave and that people who try often get sent to the RPF. And that if you try to leave the RPF and get caught, you might get put in the RPF’s RPF.

Anyway, I’m obviously no insider, so I’d like to hear what it’s really like, but everything I’ve seen suggests that trying to leave Scientology is a nightmare.

Viacom will not pull the DCMA suit and YouTube should not attempt to use Anonymous as their personal army.
Viacom -The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, contends that nearly 160,000 unauthorized clips of Viacom’s entertainment programming have been available on YouTube and that these clips have been viewed more than 1.5 billion times.

I don’t buy YouTube’s lame excuse to single out Mark Bunker. Snippets are fair use.
I hope Mark posts the video somewhere else and Scientology stiffs Google for the Adsense bill.

AF — Well said. A very blunt and direct statement, without being preachy or pushy. I wish I had such such good and subtle debate skills.

I think this is just creating more interest in the Beghe interview. I know I can hardly wait.
