Under the tongue-in-cheek pretense of combating copyright violations, Monty Python now has its very own channel on YouTube.

"For three years you YouTubers have been ripping us off, taking tens of thousands of our videos and putting them on YouTube," the group explains on the site. "Now the tables are turned. It's time for us to take matters into our own hands."

"We know who you are, we know where you live and we could come after you in ways too horrible to tell," the group's note continues. "But being the extraordinarily nice chaps we are, we've figured a better way to get our own back: We've launched our own Monty Python channel on YouTube."

In the video version of the note, a scene of someone being stoned in Monty Python's Life of Brian accompanies the hyperbolic threat of copyright enforcement action.
