I wonder where the line is for "fair use" or not?
Going a step further: even "public domain" music often gets taken down because there are commercial remixes of it. So even if Disney gets mad, somebody wanting to prevent videos from being uploaded could do that too.
- aurizon 5y agoThere is a huge ecology of theft of monetisation with false takedown notices etc. youtube cares not, 'The ads must flow'
- bcrl 5y agoMaybe Google should pay the copyright usage fee rather than just accept the takedown. I would imagine that a lot of these videos uploaded to YouTube are one-offs put up by people for the public good who don't have channels and are below the threshold for being able to monetize their uploads.
