What is the point of viral marketing, if the minute somebody talks about it YOU FREAKING BLOCK IT.
Yesterday we were doing our podcast and we talked about the Colonel doing his DJ set at Ultra and the minute
that we put it up after the livestream ended, they blocked it worldwide!
This speaks to a bigger problem that I think a lot of creators are having right now and it's really grinding my gears
because
we all make fun of YouTube, like we all give YouTube shit for it's broken copyright system
but I think that it's time that we turn our attention to the people who are the biggest offenders right now;
These companies that think that they can do the most aggressive bad-faith copyright enforcement
possible and just get away with it. You hear my price tag jiggling. That's how you know, I'm frickin pissed, dude *just end my suffering*
Yeah, you know why I'm wearing this menorah, it's Passover. I'm supposed to be passed over and here I am, pissed off!
Thanks Colonel Douchebag. *lol, you make me realize how my life has been, you douchebag*
It started when businesses started specifically building automated systems to match Content ID
outside of YouTube's automated system and they started approaching huge brands huge media companies and saying "Hey come to us!
We're gonna make you a million dollars a month. We're gonna claim all your videos. You don't have to do anything!
We'll do everything and we get 50%." So it pretty much
absolves the big media company of any responsibility and these other guys these third parties go out and they get bounties on claims and
such things so they go out there. They have no obligation,
no desire, no incentive even to consider fair use, and they'll claim anything for any reason.
So right now you're saying it's just field days worse than it's ever been for monetization for creators!
I mean, I have seen some really egregious stuff.
But I'm talking five second clips on a two-hour podcast and they're gonna claim the whole thing and earn our money.
Mr. Beast once, he literally hummed the tune of a song and got claimed by UMG
for a 20 minute video that had 20 million views for humming a song for 5 seconds.
Singing: "Hes a maniac, maniac!"
This is one of the clips that Mr.Beast's entire video with 20 million views got claimed for.
These companies care about their image and they care about their bottom line, and
when KFC, when Colonel Douchebag is out here trying to do his viral marketing and his partners over at Ultra are
blocking worldwide anytime somebody tries to talk about it,
I think KFC should know about it, you know, maybe all the sudden those chicken tenders aren't sounding that bomb,
maybe all of the sudden that gravy and those mashed potatoes. Give me
TERRIBLE DIARRHEA!
TERRIBLE! We gotta start shaming,
We gotta start calling out
these
people that think they're untouchable the guys who go oh when anything goes down on YouTube. I'm pulling my ads. Well, you know what?
I'M PULLING MY ADS!
KFC, you pulled your- I pull MY ads!
This- I'm going on official boycott on Colonel Douchebag right now. Get a load of this guy. He doesn't eat chicken!
KFC Why don't you start making *incoherent* balls *incoherent*
ACIQI Whatever that is
Thats what he eats
Let's start selling that, start being honest with your advertising
Colonel D-
Like get a load of this guy!
Have you ever seen more of a douche in your life?
Trying to sell me chicken
Are you serious?
And I mean get a load of this DJ setup
I wish I could show it to you without being afraid of getting blocked
But just Ill show you a screenshot
This guy goes out Ultra with Colonel's head.
Colonel Sander's head and starts talking about... uhh...
...Hey everybody,
This is Colonel Sanders. Everybody up for some chicken nuggets?
I pull my ads.
You don't pull your ads.
We've got the power.
So when all these douchebag companies start coming out here and claiming all our sh*t, guess who has got the power.
I PULL MY ADS!
Here's this little Twitter... uh, we announced on Twitter.
*The tweet*
Then Ultra wanted to get involved and wanted to be the hero.
They say...
*The tweet*
Okay first of all. When companies do this, this is such a bs.
You do not need me to follow you to fix it. JUST DROP THE BLOCK!
Like what kinda spin is this?!
They just want to get you hooked in the DM and butter you up or I don't know.
Try to spin you around.
JUST PULL... JUST RELEASE THE BLOCK!
I don't wanna talk to Ultra Music Festival's social media guy!
So he goes...
*The tweet*
He says...
*The tweet*
Ok, stop there. I actually know what I'm talking about.
Ok. There's no such thing as Youtube's system auto-blocking
You set the settings. You set everything.
You set how much of your original video people used, to block.
You set what to happen when you match it.
So you clearly had it set.
Because this was 2 minutes of a 2-hour episode.
You clearly had it set for 1% or less for anything.
And you had it set to automatically block.
Youtube does not do that without you putting it in the parameters.
UNLIKE THE TURNTABLES AND DJS UP THERE WITH THE KNOBS.
YOU CANNOT TURN AND SPIN ME!
The only thing getting turned is my stomach when I eat KFC's chicken nuggs because it makes me have diarrhea.
That's the only thing that makes me spin.
*The tweet*
He says...
*The tweet*
Bro, you got one option.
Well, it's already too late. That's the point, really.
But what are you...
Drop the block.
That's it that all you do! Drop the claim!
Why do I need to talk to you?!
Trying to spin me, dude.
Get the F*ck out of my mentions, B*tch!
*Sigh*. The thesis of this if I can draw a conclusion,
Is that we YouTubers are under fire, recently.
Copyright is such a b*tch everywhere.
From Article 13 in Europe and now with these bots.
And these companies running amuck in youtube.
They think they can do whatever they want.
And can get away with everything they want!
And we need to remember that, you do not drop ads from youtube. We drop you!
So all the gamers who want to raise up with me, type #KFD in the future.
Or KFDuchebag, KFDiarrhea.
KFD. That's what I'll re-dub that.
Ultra? more like #Lamela
I gotta work on that one admittedly, that wasn't that good
And by the way, KFC, chill out
Have a bucket of chicken and relax, dude
This viral marketing thing is stupid
It's too much. From douchebag sanders to colonel bobblehead here
GIVE IT A REST
ITS JUST CHICKEN, MAN
