Quote from: Decimator Omega on January 28, 2016, 08:21:31 PMActually he does have a job. He donates his YouTube money to charity.Fair enough, my mistake. I could've sworn he was one of those idiots like AngryJoe, who quit his job to do YouTube full time.Still, the point stands that YouTube is under no obligation to be "fair" to him or anybody else--and they've made it clear over the past eight years that they simply do not care about our piddly complaints about the shitty system. And they don't have to.
Actually he does have a job. He donates his YouTube money to charity.
Sadly Verbatim is right. As shitty as it is YouTube is a private business that is entitled to run its site however it wishes.
Oh my god. Just realized. This also affects dubtrack when it comes to most music I believe.

Just create original content that's yours and yours alone and you should be fine.
"Any existing fair use laws would only state that people can use portions of video/audio for the sake of review or commentary. There is literally nothing to say that YouTube, as a privately-run business, MUST allow these forms of content on their site. Fair Use does not = first amendment rights, and even if it did, youtube is only as much of a public forum as its owners decide it to be."Reality.
I've not seen this happen to any youtubers.

There's not a week that goes by without some big YouTuber having to deal with some bullshit copyright claim--it's happened at least once to almost everybody I've ever watched.

Meanwhile people like Jynx continue to break the community guidelines and copyright laws in their plank and reaction videos and face absolutely no repercussions whatsoever. Plus there are legitimate business agreements that go into sponsored channels. Your assertions that it's dumb to quit a "legit" job for a youtube channel like Angry Joe's that was already sucessfull are unfounded.

Ever heard of Two Best Friends Play? Best LPers on the Internet, and they don't have to deal with any shit like this? Why?They have their own website. Others should follow suit.
