@Synackaon: Not sure whose side you are on from your post. You realise it was Mr Hanauer who went and hired the PR firm right?

I honestly don't see the problem with what TED did. Chris explained it in his blog; they post one video per day, out of literally thousands that they record. This talk didn't go down well with the crowd at TED, so they decided not to post it. The speaker did not want to "work with them". He hired a PR firm and charged TED with "censorship", and then sent private correspondance with Chris to a journalist. Mr Hanauer started this conspiracy himself, and I'm sure he loved the amount of attention he got from it.
