Google blocks video in Brazil after arrest -- but see it anyway

http://j.mp/SoDBsV  (Reuters)

   "The Brazilian unit of Google, the world's No. 1 Internet search
    engine, said on Thursday it had obeyed a court order to remove a video
    attacking a candidate in Brazilian municipal elections from its
    YouTube service after legal appeals were exhausted ... An arrest
    warrant was issued for Coelho earlier this week by a court in Brazil's
    Mato Grosso do Sul state after Google failed to obey an order
    demanding removal of the video attacking a mayoral candidate."

controversy, despite the outrageous action taken against YouTube and
