If its not legitimate I think you can counter sue. I doubt he would hold back either. Could be interesting.

curiously, this one is also banned:
http://www.youtube.com/user/richarddawkinsnet/videos
This account has been terminated due to repeated or severe violations of our Community Guidelines and/or claims of copyright infringement

But this one is valid, but it has no videos:

Is that his own channel or just something created by a fan?

It's official, bro.

The official channel has been infringing copyrights?

It is so easy to infringe copyrights on Youtube... it all depends on whether anyone notices and cares.

I think Dawkins has to come clean about it. Which of his materials included copyrighted works and why/how they made it into his channel.

If it's multiple, then you know it's serious.

Whoever handles his channel must have been seriously incompetent, or just an outright thief.

Yeah, I had an old video of me playing the piano when I was 16 at a little kids recital. YouTube said it "may" be owned by some label so they play ads with it now.

LOL. You know how easy it is to file a false DMCA takedown notice? Or hundreds of them?

I think I'll wait to hear what RD has to say before forming an opinion.
