1) It's the freakin' internet, once they removed all the hitler rant videos from yt, they came back swinging

2) The above doesn't hurt them nearly as much as: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWSIFh8ICaA

I would be interested i seeing Microsoft try to remove THAT video from Youtube.

Yeah, but they got nothing there. If they did, it's getting hit in the face with another wagon of bad pr.

I was joking here.  It is a video by Sony and I have a hard time seeing Microsoft try to remove it.

They're gonna end up looking even worse if they appear desperate to negate bad PR this way. I say leave it, especially nerds will rage at these tactics.

That's like trying to stop terrorism, that will never work. You close someone down and that opinion will just go to someone else and still spread around. I almost feel sorry for Microsoft but the damage is already done

Oh wow.. so you're the kind of dude who thinks money can bring you everything huh? I'll assume you're joking ;P


I never said that. Money makes things easy. Especially some geek-talk on youtube.
