IANAL, but wouldn't this form some kind of tortious interference? Any lawyers care to provide some insight?

- timwiseman 15y agoI also am not a lawyer, but it would be a big stretch for this to constitute tortious interference. Tortious interference requires that someone force (or at least strongly persuade) one of the parties involved to breach a contract. Here it is hard to argue that Google has breached a contract with anyone. Its use agreements tend to give it the right to remove a video for any reason or no reason at all.
- tankenmate 15y agoI should have been more clear, I meant tortious interference of the business relationship variety (a la restraint of / interference with trade) rather than the contractual variety.
