Can someone parse this for me?
Edit: A RansomNovaX-account was usually accessed from Pakistan ip. Then it was accessed from Hungarian ip.
I kept trying to read it as "users that had been (uploading clips via IP addresses in Pakistan [while] logged into their YouTube account from a computer) connected to the Internet via an IP address in Hungary"
- vineyardmike 6y agoRansomNova is the pirate and "is in pakistan" Copyright owner is "in hungary", and uses a hungary IP address to file DMCA claim against video uploaded from RansomNova. RansomNova suddenly logs in (to their youtube account) from IP address used by copyright owner, at the same time. Therefore, RansomNova and CopyrightOwner are in same place at same time, using same IP address -> Somehow connected to each other -> Therefore bad faith DMCA claim.
- edmundsauto 6y agoKey context: the content in question was obscure Hungarian-language content being uploaded from Pakistan. There were also a series of accounts (RansomNova11, RansomNova12, etc) doing this. The intent seemed that if Youtube thought they were a "good" agent, they would have access to the automated takedown tools that YT reserves for the big players.
- pajko 6y agoIsn't it interesting that there appears to be somebody named "Ransom Nova" in Pakistan, studying computer science? https://www.linkedin.com/in/ransom-nova-73b214191/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/ransom-nova-73b214191/
