Where's The
Fair Use.
Used because YouTube can't seem to get their shit together and unjustly removes or blocks content that is protected under
fair use while leaving reaction videos that include the entire uninterrupted video in the corner with the
reactor in the background silently nodding or some dumb shit like that.
Right now, a video can be blocked for copyright without the person making the complaint showing any evidence or proving his/her case and without having to worry about any repercussions for making
false accusations so they can just spam copyright claims left and right. On the other hand, the creator of the video has his/her video or even channel blocked, loses money, and has to go through the headache of filing appeals that can take months to resolve and of which they can only file 3 at a time even though infinite claims can be filed against them.
I criticized a movie and showed clips of it that I was clearly using to prove a point and am clearly protected under
fair use but I'm still losing money right now because my video was taken down since the makers of the movie didn't like my video and are using and abusing
copyright claims as a form of
censorship. #wtfu
