Piracy never can be, but Willful Copyright Infringement certainly can.

Back in 2005 there was a p2p civil disobedience with the distribution of the civil rights documentaries "Eyes on the Prize" which hadn't been aired for many years because of a few copyright issues.

The same thing is happening with Martin Luther King Jr.'s 'I Have a Dream' speech:

Like the Zapruder film, when does something become so important that the copyright owner gets out of the way so people can see and understand.

Similarly Archive.org is attempting to create a public archive of 9/11 video:

Problem is were dealing with an entertainment item, but the wave is starting that certain pieces of video are beyond the control of anyone. But more importantly shouldn't be controlled by anyone.
