You can easily get three strikes in a few moments with frivolous takedown

So what you're basically saying is that any YouTube channel since the dawn of the DMCA has been permanently in the status of "Our Channel Could Be Deleted". That's... not exactly news is it? What makes the GamersNexus case special?

Why is this being downvoted?

You angered the tech jesus fanbois

It’s explained very clearly in the video, that it takes 10 days from filing the complaint. If Bloomberg persist on the issue, the take down stands.

I addressed this. Bloomberg must press actual legal charges for the takedown to stand, and provide proof to Youtube. This is mentioned very around 7:32 in the video. Here's a screenshot:

YouTube is basically saying to Bloomberg: yeah, we are ruling that this is not infringement, but if you still disagree and really want to press the issue... put your money where your mouth is and provide proof that you filed actual legal charges. They're only doing what is legally required of them by the DMCA.

And, as you conveniently keep ignoring, even if alllll this ends up with Bloomberg suing GamersNexus in a court of law and winning (a highly unlikely outcome) and the video being permanently delisted... that is still only 1 copyright strike, and not enough for "The Channel To Be Deleted!!!!". It basically takes 3 strikes within the same 90 days for a channel to be subject to deletion. Ergo: it is fucking click bait. Their channel is not and never was in danger of being deleted.

Just because it's being normalized by the Linuses and Tech Jesuses on youtube doesn't mean we shouldn't call it what it is.

This video is click bait and the content is rather mid. We're clearly supposed to feel some kind of outrage over a freedom of press kinda thing, but in reality the video is more like: waaah our ad revenue took a hit on this one video because of Big Evil Company abusing the copyright claim system, NOT FAIR! (Ignoring that this has been happening hundreds if not thousands of times per day for over a decade to much smaller channels than GamersNexus, without a peep from Tech Jesus on the issue).

How the fuck are you so dense?

Read my whole comment. It is demonstrably NOT true.

But very clearly it isn’t here

How the hell isn't it?

Title: "Our Channel Could Be Deleted" <insert dramatic thumbnail featuring the word "SILENCED" in big capital letters>

Yet even in the video itself they explain that :

  1. Youtube sided with them, the copyright strike got reverted and the video wil be restored. The only recourse Bloomberg has is to press actual charges in a court of law.
  2. It takes three copyright strikes to delete a channel, not one.

And I will add my own 3: YouTube will never just outright delete a cashcow channel like GamersNexus.

I get that they're pissed because the claim was bogus and it cost them good ad revenue on that video, and they will probably not recoup the cost of making it, but the channel is not and never was in danger of being deleted. So the title is clickbait intended to generate outrage for some, let's be honest, rather mid content.

the amount of downvotes

LOL "I'm right because I got more upvotes".

Sane take.

I'm also very much a "car guy", but I fucking love that since covid and work-from-home I don't have to do day-to-day driving anymore. I do less than 20% of the mileage that I used to do.

So yeah don't get mad at car owners, get mad at return-to-office mandates and such.

Maybe there are simply enough places, and people can park in front of their own houses, so there's no need to park in front of your house?

So why does that need a whole new clock app? That would just be an update to tzdata on a Linux system.

you might have to soon move away to something much better. Let me know if you find it.

Great "counter" argument 👍

I find it rather disturbing that all these governments are trying to sneak this kind of legislation through in the calm between election cycles, without public debate whatsoever. There is almost no reporting about it in mainstream news, until it is a "fait accompli", and it is completely absent from the various parties' programs upon which they got elected. It's almost as if they fear public opinion.
