This is not one of them. 3:59 Filing the DMCA takedown notices. 4:32 I did not file the DMCA due to ChudLogic's criticisms. 5:55 I only care that he reuploaded my video in full. 6:22 I was surprised that YouTube didn't accept the DMCA claim. 7:30 While trying to contact a law firm, a deranged shitstorm was unfolding on YouTube and Twitter. 8:00 ChudLogic is still mad about this, and even my lawyers think this situation is stupid. 9:13 Some people were confused why I didn't say anything publicly. 9:58 My lawyers agreed I had a case, but received the same automated responses from YouTube. 10:29 It took a long time to get through to a real person. 11:18 What can be learned from all of this? 11:35 Despite having a valid reason to file a takedown, you still risk backlash for doing so. 12:14 TurkeyTom / TomDark's video covering these events. 13:22 I have a problem with the market impact of react videos. My issue is not about how much they "add" to the video. 14:06 Reactors take value from creators far more than they ever give back. 14:40 Tom was confused why I struck such a small channel. 14:57 Addition is not the same as transformation. 16:13 A fair use case made it to the Supreme Court in 2022. 16:55 People seem to believe that adding something to someone else's work immediately makes it fair use. 17:22 Right now, there is no legal support for 'watch parties' being fair use. 17:45 No one actually cares about how fair use is written in law. 18:26 I fundamentally disagree with Tom's opinion of reuploading entire videos. 18:55 If copying has no cost, then creating will always be worse off. 19:19 Reviewing songs / albums is different, because you can listen to the same song for years. 20:11 The idea that three paragraphs of text is 'massive' is depressing. 21:11 It is fine to use clips of me for context in a larger work or memes. 22:22 I am still the rights holder to these original clips. Uploading a clip and doing nothing else doesn't transform it. 22:44 Again, I see using this clip for context in a larger body of work as fair. 23:15 Bowblax's "Twitter vs." video. 23:31 The negative response Bowblax received was enough to be convinced to make a second part. 24:06 The difference between Bowblax and Tom's coverage is immediately apparent. 26:36 Bowblax claims that I DMCA clip usage if it's negative, but I never filed anything against him. 27:48 The amount of old drama these people tried to dig up is insane. 29:49 WillyMacShow's tweet shows that these people aren't interested in my viewpoints. 30:43 They don't think the copyright system works, but when it agrees with them, YouTube must be correct. 31:23 Bowblax never actually argues why my claims would be false. 32:02 Bowblax's second video. 32:28 When filing a DMCA claim, you must affirm that you are willing to go to court. 34:26 Bowblax actively ignored people defending me in his first video. 34:49 Optimus' video. 35:11 My DMCA takedown was specifically for copyright-related issues. 36:29 Optimus says that I struck the video for being negative while making a negative video. 37:11 Optimus says he watches my stuff but also believes I would use the DMCA system maliciously. 38:21 Explaining why I made the SA analogy in my original essay. 38:48 Hasan Piker's statements about consent are disgusting and fucked up, which is why I made the analogy. 39:36 Mocking people ignoring consent is not the same as calling reactors rapists. 40:13 When people make a video critiquing me, I respond to their arguments. I don't strike them. 40:42 ChudLogic would've been fine if he watched the video in his own time and then discussed it on stream. 41:12 Optimus' reasons for believing ChudLogic's video was fair use contradict fair use guidelines. 43:18 The amount of work used does affect fair use guidelines. It's one of the main factors. 44:24 Ethan (H3H3)'s court ruling specifically states that a watch party would have lost. 44:56 Conclusion
