- frastolator, on 09/05/2008, -0/+30Just another example of Scientology and their continual efforts to hide the truth. I'm so sick of this crap!
- bgodley, on 09/05/2008, -0/+29Being a former scientologist myself I can vouch that these tactics were in fact used. I remember one time we were ordered by the head of our org to make fraudulent phone calls to someone's place of work in order to get them fired all because they had written a letter to a newspaper criticizing scientology.
Can you imagine a rabbi or a priest ordering their congregation to do similar? And scientology has the nerve to call itself a religion - inactive, on 09/05/2008, -0/+25Scientology rails against the same abuses it perpetrates.... This is so disgusting and such a blatant attack on free speech. Long live WBM and http://www.XenuTV.com
Some other boards talking about this attack on free speech by Scientology:

Scientology Rulz!
http://www.scientologyrulz.com - clamxbaker, on 09/05/2008, -0/+25Oh well, nothing gets the troops riled up like a classic Co$ foot bullet. The cult never learns.
- clamxbaker, on 09/05/2008, -0/+24Whoa, I was wondering about that yesterday. I saw one of the videos that were taken done by them, and I Goggled their name and couldn't find anything.
- PMansell, on 09/05/2008, -0/+19^^ you fail Tom Newton.
The world knows of your cult's lies now - FreddyO, on 09/05/2008, -0/+19They got some of my videos taken down :(
But I reuploaded them several times over, and on other sites, and now youtube has put them all back up >:D - Delanon, on 09/05/2008, -0/+18Every move $cientology makes is the wrong move.
This will not end well. - js572, on 09/05/2008, -0/+18Thanks for the additional links. I was reading about this on a few forums this morning (after getting my own video deleted) and just picked what seemed like the most common one for the digg.
- cshard, on 09/05/2008, -0/+17Now hold on a moment. Wasnt removing YouTube videos and forced net censorship what caused internet denizens to protest Scientology in the first place? Isnt that what triggered an online and old-media PR disaster which promped the online group 'Anonymous' to start protesting Scientology and generally make their lives a whole lot harder, and increase that PR disaster into massive proportions?
So their solution is to try and censor the web using a *different company name*?
These guys just never learn, do they.
Dugg for net justice. Get your popcorn people. - Anonynamefag, on 09/05/2008, -0/+16^ fail troll is fail

- ANonHubbard, on 09/05/2008, -0/+15I recieved a notice that one of my videos was removed by a DCMA claim by this phony organization. I clicked through and it was up - it seems Youtube has restored all fraudlently-removed material. The last paragraph is most interesting.

- DMudkips, on 09/05/2008, -0/+13Scientology has a long history of suppressing criticism, free speech and the truth.
http://www.xenu.net
http://www.enturb.org - Wonnabiee, on 09/05/2008, -0/+13Such a shame! Trying too remove such nice educational video's. Bitches should feel Xenu's wrath and anger.
- babalonanon, on 09/05/2008, -0/+12Scientology tries to suppress free internet speech. Again
It will not end well.
Got me fired up all over again.
Germany knows... - CuriousNIndy, on 09/06/2008, -0/+11This is outrageous abuse of the YT reporting system! This is not the actions of a bonafide religion! This is exactly how a dangerous cult behaves who doesn't want the world to know about their crimes!
Keep doing what you are doing Anonymous! - SgtAl, on 09/06/2008, -1/+12You are wrong. If you are a scientologist you are a member of a cult that is among other things a hate group. Why else would they refer to non-members with the derogatory word "Wogs"?
- Terreyo, on 09/06/2008, -0/+11As a former scientologist myself I can attest to the crimes perpetrated by the church. I left Scientology earlier this year following the anonymous protests. During the period prior to the march 15th protest we were called into the org and asked to think up reasons to call the police on the protesters, FAKE reasons! I started to realize then that the protesters were right and Scientology is full of lies and *****.
Thanks Anonymous, Mark Bunker, Tory Magoo, and all critics! You have shown me the light!
-Terryeo - Anonymous678, on 09/06/2008, -0/+10Hope someone goes to jail for abusing the DMCA
- XenuXenuXenu, on 09/06/2008, -0/+9As a former Scientology staff member, I can vouch for them too. The first assignment given to GO/OSA staff (Scientology's "dirty tricks" division) is to go into the local public libraries and steal all of the anti-scientology books. They've routinely ordered this done for over 30 years, because they don't want the public to find out the truth about them.
This is no different, just another blatantly dishonest act to try to suppress the flow of accurate information. - ANonHubbard, on 09/05/2008, -0/+9All their tech is obsolete. :)
- cshard, on 09/05/2008, -0/+9And that makes removing their videos using a fraudulent company name and illegal fraudulent DMCA takedown orders legit... how?
- Deltanonymous, on 09/06/2008, -0/+9Coming up on your right, you'll see what we like to call "the idiots who don't learn", also known as "$cientologists". Notice how they do stupid things, things no sane person would do, to provoke an infinitely furious group of people until they are attacked. Then, instead of changing their ways, they continue to do the same stupid things to provoke the people.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is why the cult must fall. Purposefully creating false DMCA notices is the work of idiots, morons, and criminals, not "church" people. - orry486, on 09/06/2008, -0/+9More flagrant abuse of the legal system by scientology. Sending out waves of fake copyright claims should not be called "religious activity"! Scientologists are TOLD TO LIE.
scientology is a dangerous criminal syndicate. Investigate the cult!

- Deltanonymous, on 09/06/2008, -0/+8All their tech was obsolete when it was brand new.
- KlogereEndGrim, on 09/06/2008, -0/+8This raises the question if google has gone too far in their pleasing of (apparent) copyright holders, if anyone can remove the opinions he disagrees with, simply by lying a bit, and the poster has to give up his or her identity to his or hers sworn enemy, then it doesnt take too much thinking to see that that is an unfair situation.

It's The Psyches' Fault I Molest Children
Tom Newton is a ***** ***** retard who spams on alt.religion.scientology and is one of the ONLY people in the world who actually DOES have a CS3 (no really, he does!). When "Tom" (real name Alan Connor) isn't busy spamming alt.religion.scientology, or editing his blog of unbiased "facts", he is buying tantric sex novels online from Amazon about how to maintain a long male orgasm while being hung from meat hooks.
Pasted from " - AnonShawi, on 09/06/2008, -0/+8One of my vids was a newsclip from the CBC and was taken down! It'a PUBLIC corporation lol, all my vids are back though, let's at least thank youtube for fixing it quick ;) Major footbullet for scientology imo
- inactive, on 09/05/2008, -0/+7I think you picked the best one. Both ARS and Xenu were pretty much just referencing Enturb's posting. The only, well, great thing about the postings on Xenu and ARS, is that they were started by Mark Bunker/WBM from XenuTV.com. His sites were removed just as they were once before.
Though with enough complaints, they were put back up again. Hopefully this messed is fixed and never repeats itself. This was a fraudulent act by Scientology/Scientologist to get these videos representing "free speech" removed. Hopefully Youtube learns from this and doesn't make the same mistake again. HOPEFULLY, this story make news headlines like it should. This is fraud committed by a "religion".
Anyway....
Scientology Rulz!

- anawnymoose, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3So, my understanding here is that all I need to do is make a name like "United Society for Religious Freedom" and Google/Youtube will remove videos and accounts at my very whim!
