• [OT] Abuse of copyright strikes

    From Rhino@21:1/5 to All on Wed Aug 20 13:59:02 2025
    Rick Beato is sick of copyright strikes and he's not taking it any more.

    Beato has a popular YouTube channel that he's been operating for 9
    years. He's been getting told to take down his videos for years and he's
    just about had enough. He's hired a lawyer who has successfully fought
    EVERY SINGLE COPYRIGHT CLAIM but the claims keep coming, sometimes
    numbering a dozen in a single HOUR.

    Some of the comments suggest that he should sue either YouTube or UMG (Universal Music Group, the main complainant) for these spurious claims.
    Beato insists that he follows the "fair use" provisions of the existing
    laws on copyright.
