As many of you are probably aware of one of my favorite skeptics and debunkers, Myles Power, is being harassed by the creators of the HIV/AIDS denialist film, House of Numbers, by filing false DMCA takedown notices on Youtube concerning a set of five videos that Myles has made criticizing and debunking that film and showing the world just how deceptive it is.
Now, the creators of House of Numbers have made the killing blow and filed a forth DMCA takedown notice that will get his channel deleted in about a week from now.
This is wrong on so many levels. It is censorship of the worst kind. The makers of this film are trying to suppress the truth about their film and this can not be allowed!
Fortunately one of his friends, Science of Sarcasm, has uploaded all five videos on another video sharing website.
Now you can go to SoS's website and watch the videos there, or you can watch all five videos right below:
Debunking House of Numbers Part 1 by scienceofsarcasm
Debunking House of Numbers Part 2 by scienceofsarcasm
Debunking House of Numbers Part 3 by scienceofsarcasm
Debunking House of Numbers Part 4 by scienceofsarcasm
Debunking House of Numbers Part 5 by scienceofsarcasm
You if have a program that will allow you to download these videos (I'm using YTD Downloader myself, just incase you don't have a program that will let you download from Dailymotion, I recommend this one) please do so and reupload these videos on ANY of the popular video sites.
Do not let these people get away with this! Let them find out what the Streisand effect is, and let them find out just what happen when you try to silence free speech on the internet, or anywhere.
I hope that Myles fights this, and that he continues making more videos debunking House of Numbers, and Myles if you are reading this on behalf of the skeptics community we are with you!
Update: Petition asking Youtube to lift the DMCA takedown notices against Myles Power
A petition has been started on Change.org asking Youtube to lift the DMCA takedown notices. I ask everyone here to please it and tell Youtube to lift these notices against Myles and to stop these false DMCA takedown notices being brought against him!

Update: Parts 1, 2, & 3 are back up
I just check out Myles's Youtube page and parts one, two, & three are back up. Part five is still down, but you can still find that everywhere on Youtube, just search for "debunking House of Numbers" and you should easily find it.
Hopefully part five will be back up soon and that Myles will be able to finish what he started, but atleast his page is no longer in danger of being taken down.
Update: Part 5 is back up
Part Five of Debunking House of Numbers is finally back. All five videos are back up for all to view.
