The Corbett Report is a investigative news website ran by journalist and researcher James Corbett. He has produced excellent articles and videos covering a broad range of topics for two decades.
The majority of news articles, videos and other content produced by Corbett are, in the context of this particular website, completely irrelevant. They are interesting and worth watching, they are just not even remotely related to GNU/Linux, free software, Korean pop music or any other topic this particular website covers.
The following videos are just the rare technology-related video James Corbett has made that are relevant to our readers. You should visit www.corbettreport.com, where you can find a complete archive of all his videos, podcasts and articles, if you are interested in his non-tech related work.

Mozilla has launched a new campaign against YouTube called "YouTube Regrets". Investigative journalist James Corbett reports that their motives may be a bit questionable and points out some moral issues with Mozilla's desire to control and dictate what you can and can't see on the Internet. It seems a bit odd than an organization that claims to be for a free and open Internet would be in favor of something like that.
