What happened when Vietnam's national broadcaster was caught pinching YouTube videos
Vietnam's national broadcaster has been suspended from YouTube after it beamed out videos from an amateur photographer without his permission.
Bui Minh Tuan runs a motorbike business, and he also has a keen interest in drones and aerial photography. His shots of stunning Vietnamese scenery - such as the the one above - have been watched hundreds of thousands of times on his YouTube channel.
They also caught the attention of producers at Vietnam Television (VTV) - who apparently used Tuan's videos without his permission on at least five different occasions, both on air and on their own YouTube page. Tuan says he was not consulted or properly credited and that VTV producers only called him to apologise after each segment had aired on television. VTV sometimes even blurred out the logo of Tuan's channel before broadcast.
