They're not weaponizing copyright, they're weaponizing Instagram's copyright-infringement-avoidance filter. HN really should look into their headline editing policy, because it really does change the context of the conversation in this instance.
- PragmaticPulp 6y agoThe videos are still up on the person’s Instagram account, from which he sells anti-cop merchandise. As far as I can tell, there hasn’t been a copyright removal. It appears the police were tired of being followed by this guy trying to provoke them to promote his Instagram and associated merch.

It's perfectly okay for citizens to record the state depriving citizens of their right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, you brown-nosing piece of shit. It's already been established that the state can lie to citizens. You brown-nosing piece of shit. The problem is when the state interferes with citizens exercising their rights, you brown-nosing piece of shit. Citizens can say whatever they want, whenever they want. Full stop. They have to face the consequences of their actions afterwards. You brown-nosing piece of shit. The problem, you brown-nosing piece of shit, is that the cops know there is no way for their actions to be held against them. So they abuse the rules the corporations have created to make sure citizens can't exercise their God-given rights. You brown-nosing piece of shit. I'm not even sorry about my language, you brown-nosing piece of shit. You, and the people excusing the bad apples in the police barrel, are the problem. You brown-nosing piece of shit.
