  1. Nah. They're some kid in a developing country with English as their second or third language, getting paid $5/hr to handle complaints to a script.

  2. You are going to find that there is no claimant so your clause is irrelevant. You are going to find that this is an auto match by contentID and no human was involved in the claims process. As no human was involved, there is also no one to sue.

  3. @flatfingertuning727  You do not understand what this video is about and how youtube works if that's what you think. There is no take down notice. It isn't a channel strike. It's a copyright strike. They might sound similar but they're very different. A copyright strike CAN be manual, however most often including in this instance, they are AUTOMATIC through youtubes contentID system. The system uses software to identify audio and/or video works that match works loaded into contentID automatically, and where a match is found it issues a copyright strike on the channel. A channel can have an unlimited number of copyright strikes. All they do is take the channels share of revenue generated by the video and give it to the entity whose work matched in contentID. Where as a channel strike takes away features and after 3, your channel is deleted. Very different. Esoterica didn't get one of these. Only the former. What will have happened is another music track will be in contentID that has the same clip of choppin and thus it's matching. ContentID can't distinguish parts of a work that are public domain vs the rest of the work. So if a copyrighted work uses clips of public domain works, or third party licenced works, contentID will match those works. It's particularly annoying when people use clips from commercial packs in their works, copyright them and then those packs and anyone else using them get a copyright strike. But the whole process is automatic, software. There's 600 videos uploaded to YouTube per second, it's impossible to manage copyright without automation at that scale.

  4. @Z.E.92  Google won't be broken up anymore than Microsoft was when people were making the same arguments about them in 1999/2000, or IBM in 1987. Eventually a new start up will come along with something new and everyone will shift to that until that new start up becomes the new monopoly on the block. Rinse and repeat.
