Google must divulge YouTube logs

“Google must divulge the viewing habits of every user who has ever watched any video on YouTube, a US court has ruled.
The ruling comes as part of Google’s legal battle with Viacom over allegations of copyright infringement.
Digital rights group the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) called the ruling a ‘set-back to privacy rights’.”
Viacom has no right to this personally identifiable information, and I hope Google countersues Viacom on behalf of YouTube users once this case is thrown out of court.
