YouTube has finally taken down the videos that Viacom marked as violating their copyright. I am starting an effort to find the videos at other sites, and this may also be combined with a future update to VidMirror that allows it to determine if a video has gone down.

Equally interesting is to identify the innocent videos that were taken down by Viacom. TopTenSources has a site up for those who have been victimized and want to mobilize. I am definitely in. My totally innocent--in fact, totally nothing--video was taken down, and it has become a real hassle getting it back up. In the meantime, I realized that my chip card containing the only other copy, was currupted... etc. etc. I don't think I'm alone in this problem.
