I won't say that this Youtube channel isn't a parasite, but it's doing something 100% legally and the one you talk about is not.
- NonNefarious 4y agoThe posted explanation doesn't mention copyright, though. It complains that the channel was delivering the content without "adding significant value," but meanwhile Google allows this asshole to perpetrate the same offense MILLIONS of times.
- helsinkiandrew 4y agoI haven't watched any of these videos, but to get away with using a copyright poem or other content as part of a video (to be fair use) the video would need to add something enough that they would stand if they didn't include the copyright content (artistic, discussion, criticism, humour etc) - I'm guessing in this case that YouTube has decided the poems are too large a part of the videos (Probably one or more of the poem copyright holders has lodged a copyright violation against some of them) and the content creator isn't added significant value to content owned by others.
