The New York Southern District Court has ruled that Google must divulge the viewing habits of every user who has ever watched any video on YouTube. See Viacom International, Inc. et al v. Youtube, Inc. et al for all the gory details.
The ruling comes as part of Google's legal battle with Viacom over allegations of copyright infringement. The viewing log, which will be handed to Viacom, contains the log-in ID of users, the computer IP address (online identifier) and video clip details. BBC article available here.
Digital rights group the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has called the ruling a "set-back to privacy rights". EFF staff attorney Kurt Opshal has posted a good overview of the case.
