Blaming TAM2 almost sounds like a cop-out. Compare it with the Global Voices story. Seems a difference between reporting from inside China and outside of China. Though, to be fair, I've had YouTube reset when I search TAM2, often after it loads. The page will suddenly reload and reset before I can choose a video. I’m curious about that, too.

But that doesn't make sense. If you go to youtube and search for ti@ananmen, you can watch a ton of videos, none of which seem to be blocked. But they have blocked a bunch of the Xiamen videos. If it was Tiananmen photos, they'd have blocked youtube as well. Yahoo released a statement saying the block came down due to pictures of Ti@ananmen being posted on flickr.
