YouTube Back in Brazil, Sans Steamy Video
By: Priyanka Pradhan   |   Jan 10,2007
Brazil has lifted the ban on video sharing site, YouTube.com, after a Brazilian court reversed its decision to block the site in the country. The Brazilian court had previously asked all internet service providers to block YouTube, after famous Brazilian model Daniela Cicarelli's sex video was posted on the site . The judge had demanded that the site be blocked off until the objectionable video was pulled down.

Judge Enio Santarelli Zulianio has now revised his ruling and allow internet service providers to reestablish access to the site, but only on the condition that YouTube permanently removes the particular sex video, which was the most viewed video in Brazil for days last year. However, technology experts say that getting rid of the video entirely, is difficult because users can repost it under different titles, which may be tough to track down.

Cicarelli and boyfriend Renato Malzoni, had filed a lawsuit last year, to force YouTube to take the video down and demanded $116,000 in damages for each day the video remained. The case dragged on for several months so Malzoni filed a third suit in December requesting that YouTube be shut down as long as the video is available to users.
