I took a shortcut in this paragraph. And, I was wrong. What I meant is that if there's copyright infringement - which can be claimed if this is a video of a professor or anybody else without his/her consent - and the video is offensive, then it's definitely a good idea to contact the website and claim copyright infringement. Obviously, if a very good video of one of your professors at Los Rios Community College District goes viral, you should try to get his consent to leave it up on the Internet. Thanks for your insightful feedback. Anonymous, you’re right.

This is not what copyright is for, and most especially not if the video is, for example, a valid critique of the institution.
