hey welcome back and in today's video I've lost weight can you tell if you've
been following me on Twitter you'll know that I along with many other creators
have been false copyright struck by Nissan
in fact on December 7th I've received a full-on strike on my channel which is a
troubling thing this only comes after Nissan sent two false claims in
September one of which specifically claimed the revenue in this video we're
going to talk about what to do if you receive a false strike from an EC on how
to prevent it and why it's important to fight it as well as how to ensure that
he gets none of your hard-earned money but before we get in today's video we
actually have a sponsor that's right we finally have a sponsor you've seen them
before this episode is sponsored by rain shadow legends it's a turn-based RPG
style game that you've most likely seen everywhere but there's a good reason why
raid is one of the top three RPGs in the Google Play Store and it's just been
nominated as a finalist for the Google play's best 2019 users Choice Award this
game is crazy popular with over 15 million downloads in the last six months
alone you can explore over 1 million champion builds enjoy a fully voiced
story campaign rate with friends in a clan and the best part is it's free to
play rate is always adding 16 new champions every month so there's always
new strategies new balance and new warriors to play with
it's even got progression rewards you can get a ton of free Champions
equipment and other cool stuff just for learning how to play once you complete
the missions you'll get one of the best legendary champions in the game the
arbiter this game is growing super fast and they've even got this really cool
road map that shows you the progress and their future plans one of the things
that I like about this game is the PvP aspect player versus player where you
can actually face other actual players in an all-out battle to see who is the
best go to this video description click the special links and get 50,000 silver
and a new epic champion as part of the new prefered player program and that's
let's give a round of applause for rade for sponsoring this video and
allowing us to do this content with without limitations it it's it it makes
let's start this journey together I'm just really grateful that they're giving
me the ability to have to be able to make content like this without having to
worry about these false strikes and in these trying times YouTube's turned
upside down right now as you probably know the YouTube copyright system has
Falls we all know this and there are loopholes that can be exploited by
would-be abusers but there are things that you should know that can prevent
you being taken advantage of by these types of people I originally got this
idea from Edwin's generation where he made a video where he walked you through
the backend process of a false strike that he received from a creator named
poppy that's right and I just felt like it was very relevant to this situation
since so many people 15 more or more have been false strucken by oniisan it's
just it's very relevant so Thank You Edmund for giving me this idea so this
is what it looks like when you receive a false claim it says it's an email from
the YouTube who says hey RevZilla a copyright owner using Content ID claims
some material in your video this is not a copyright strike yet this claim does
not affect your account status there are either ads running on your video with
the revenue going to the copyright owner and as you can see this was claimed by
an EC on now the most interesting part about this is that was the copyright
content claimed it says patreon this was a clip that I used from a YouTube video
as we know patreon kicked him off their platform for daxing and abusing their
system so it's very strange that he says that the copyright content was patreon
now my first thought was he this is just his way of saying you guys got rid of my
patreon so now I'm gonna take any revenue that I can from you so this is
the first step right here and the ads are running on the video all the revenue
goes to him he's literally stealing your revenue so
you've got a view the claim details and then from there you can dispute it which
then they send you another email says the following claim on
video Chris Hansen spells the end of the Nissan and Kai has been disputed and
there's uh at this point they send this information it back to the NEC on to
review I noticed that's the broken part the loophole and he gets to decide
whether or not he agrees with your reason for the dispute and then an EC on
has about thirty days to review and he's going to decide against against your
reasoning and then you're gonna get another email it says hi rep Zilla after
reviewing your dispute and EC on has decided that their copyright claim is
still valid still from patreon and then the next thing that you can do is you
can dispute that so again after you a pill again they send it back to an easy
on where he again gets to decide whether your reasoning is valid or not and then
YouTube sends you another email says after reviewing your appeal an e CN has
confirmed that your video contains copyrighted material that hasn't been
approved for use in your video and these CI wants to give you the opportunity to
cancel your appeal within the next seven days canceling your appeal will return
your video to the state it was before you began this dispute and if says if no
action is is taken by December 7th you're gonna receive a stripe and on
December 7th I did receive that strike that looked like this high rep Zilla due
to a copyright takedown notice that we received we had to take down your video
from YouTube and at this point and this is where everybody gets scared because
no one wants to strike on their channel you have the opportunity to appeal this
and this is the big this is where most people get hung up on because of the
legal talk it says if you believe you're not at fault in one or more of the
instances above you can appeal this takedown by submitting a
counter-notification keep in mind there may be severe legal consequences for
submitting the counter-notification with false information now here's where you
got a you got to be really kind of understanding about this
they're required to use this legal talk that is kind of scary but if you if if
it's under fair use you send this back to the Creator who did the false claim
and they have to literally take it to a courthouse pay all this top kind of
money to take you to court about this if they're really adamant about it and we
know that in DC on will not do this so this is and this is why I think this is
a key importance is to send the message to an easy on that we will not stand for
this type of stuff that we're gonna fight back
any idea is scary receiving a strike on a channel but I believe that these it's
very worth it for the whole community so at this point I'm gonna walk you through
the counter notification process and you'll know what it looks like this is
by filing a counter notification you're beginning a legal process very scary
wording counter-notification is a legal request for YouTube to reinstate the
video that has been removed for alleged copyright infringement your personal
information may be shared with the claimant which is probably the worst
part about this is I had to send my personal information to nice yawn so
heads-up if if my information gets dogs just send me a lot of Pizza you know
only other options is that you can wait 90 days for the strike to expire you can
also contact the claimant and ask them to retract their takedown request in
this case I did not contact a DC on because I have in the past and I know
that he's not going to restore the video he wants to get the money from from this
because he's it's a thing you go ahead and click the check and it says I
understand the implications finally counter-notification and proceed and
then you click continue the next part this is what it looks like where you
have to fill out all of your information of course I'm not gonna show that in the
next part you got to provide a rationale of why you're doing this I said because
it was my video an original work criticizing and reporting on nice sound
completely transformed it under fair use I have original raw file and I can prove
I own the video this person is known to abuse the copyright system and is only
doing so to stop people from talking about things he does not agree with I
could have also put the fact that he said it was
claimed from patron when he was deleted from patreon so that is a big indicator
right there I didn't think about it at the time then you got to check the other
checkboxes there that you agree that you you're for going into a formal legal
proceeding and then you submit it you also have to take a copyright school
class it's got four very easy questions that I totally missed one on and then
once you do that in a couple days you'll get another email
dear RevZilla they owe this dear epsilon oh thank you for your counter
notification it has been forwarded to the party that sent the takedown
notification keep in mind by submitting the counter notification you've
initiated a formal legal dispute process as such YouTube will handle this process
in accordance with the law this process can take some time we kindly ask for
your patience it says upon forwarding your counter notification to the to
claim it we will allow them 10 to 14 business days from this date to respond
with evidence that they have taken court legal action now this is the part that
is scary and this is also the part that a Nissan will not do because he knows
he's violating fair use and will lose very easily in a court of law they say
if we receive no response after that time period your videos will be restored
and this is uh this is how you take care of business now I would say the most
unfortunate part of this process is that you do have to give your mailing address
you do have to give your telephone number you do have to give all your
information to this person that you don't trust that's that's probably the
worst part about it other than that there is another thing that you can do
to ensure that you're making sure you're not given any money to an easy on and
that's by installing a plug-in web browser ad blocker so you just search ad
blocker and then the first result here seems like a good one and then one of
the thing is watching ad for YouTube video so you can watch and you can
toggle this on and off and I'll show you in a second but you can watch any videos
that you want without ads being played without giving revenue to a creator that
maybe you do you don't want to support so now we have ad blocker so you just
click it here and then you can turn it off and on
now 100% there are many different kinds of ad blockers do a little bit of
research to figure out which one works best for you but it's also a good way
and there are other people that mirror the videos to Vimeo if you want to watch
any NEC on videos lastly I want to talk about the new YouTube update that came
out today twelve eleven twenty nineteen it's why YouTube is over party is
trending right now and essentially let me go to the ribs let's whitter and I'll
read you my tweet I said read over the new YouTube update it's very concerning
and really just seems like a big umbrella for a lot of reasons to remove
creators and content they don't see fit the vagueness seems to imply that
pre-existing videos like uh dubs content cop could be removed and called targeted
harassment the looseness of what we were reading feels like a loophole that could
be exploited by the likes of anis on and just another way to silence criticism
that he doesn't like and limits our ability to raise awareness about
would-be abusers it was creators raising awareness about
Austin Jones that protected any other children from being hurt this worries me
for a lot of reasons and I think this needs much more detail than YouTube has
put out this absence of transparency creates anxiety and then my fears are
realized when I when I found out that in fact I dubs content cop on leafy was
among the first big bigger videos to be flagged and taken down it's just a
really really scary feeling I've been tweeted now wait a second if
they're gonna remove Adams content caught videos are they gonna hold the
same accountability to big celebrities like Eminem and others who release diss
tracks saying and doing much worse I doubt it this feels like an attack on
the creators that me said I do want to know what you guys think about this and
hopefully this video did help you and also thanks again for our sponsor in
today's video I really appreciate it it takes a lot of anxiety as you guys know
most all my videos are pretty much demonetised so to have support like that
on a good message it just feels really good let me know what you think and as
interesting as this is since there's more interest to me that's right you
guess - I wonder - thanks March guys leave a creative ender interest
responses in the comment box below thumbs up for those likes it's always
brothers and sisters I will see you in the next video dark tom's dark tom's
indeed i don't like this new update that ok that's came out I wasn't sure I was
gonna talk about it but I do feel like awareness needs to be talked about I
feel like this video is pretty helpful video I haven't uploaded in seven days
I've been doing family stuff I do apologize for that but uh if you guys
need me you know how to get a hold of me don't forget to get your where's the net
rep squad membership sweaters because they smell like awesome like Greg the
