Daizex YouTube account suspended?

[El Diabeetus]

I went to go check a few old commercials you guys had posted up there and it said your account got suspended. I doubt you care since it's well YouTube, but still found it regardless.

If this doesn't go here then my bad. But, it seems like it's website discussion. Sorry, if it's old news too...

[JulieYBM]

Yeah, Mike commented on such on his Twitter. It sucks quite a bit. Maybe he can throw the commericlas and stuff up for download?

I suppose, I was just looking for them for entertainment, nothing serious. But, still sucks the account is down. I know the feeling though, on No. 3. Wait, YBM aren't you on like account 8? I didn't know about the Twitter post, but than again I don't check twitter all that much.

[Kiyza]

You know, I think I remember Mr. EX saying something about reporting it if his account got suspended after Team Four Star's was. Is he still planning on doing that, or would it not do any good?

Blog post later tonight. It's essentially done, but I wanted to fact-check a couple things from my files at home... and I wrote it all at work today .

Wheeeeee! You plugged my Star Trek/DBZ video!!!

On the other hand, hope that doesn't draw the attention of the authorities and get me suspended...

But in response to your blog, hmm... I know it's not me who would have to do the work, but I can't help but feel you should fight it. Like you said, while the DMCA protects copyrighted works, it can (and does) serve as a legitimate hurdle to free speech, and it's a bit creepy that they can just come along and do something like that. Corporations looking to silence people depend on the apathy of the general public.

Hey VegettoEX mind uploading that one AMV that was done by many people and editors somewher? Or is it on the main site already? It's too awesome not have somewhere

It's on the site.

[dragondyle]

I just ended up deleting almost every video I have due to YouTube and third party companies being so strict these days. I already has one account disabled and I don't want that happening again.

[Zionist]

It's on the site.

You seem to misunderstand. It was on the site via Youtube embed. Which means it's unwatchable to those who do not have it downloaded. I meant like another way to get it up somehow also the download link for it does not work

Other people have uploaded it. Just search for it and you will find it. It's a shame that they aren't the original creators of the video, though.

[SylentEcho]

I just uploaded all the Ocean dub recaps and episode previews narrated by Doc Harris yesterday , but took them down right now after reading this. I thought TOEI cooled down for a while.

[Bussani]

also the download link for it does not work

Oh. I guess I should have checked that first.

((Just to let you know, this is a long post))

This sucks!

Nowadays, everybody is afraid of uploading a video they've put their effort in making it as good as possible on Youtube, only to end up taking it down or their whole channel because of ((the usually false)) DMCA claims.

This is why BigAl2k6 has moved to http://www.blip.tv and left his constantly deleted youtube accounts.

If they don't want their materials to be broadcasted on Youtube, why not taking down everything available instead of what I like to call "Dart-board System". Or better yet, shut down the whole site and nobody will watch illegally uploaded videos anymore! You find videos with a certain type of content deleted, and others remain as they are! Why?! I don't know.

In my Youtube account, I have three Dragon ball-related videos. My Zeyad Errafae'ie tribute ((12,728 views BTW)) video received this "Copyright Info":

Your video, غوكو العربي , may include content that is owned or licensed by these content owners:

* Content owner: Funimation Entertainment Type: Visual content

What should I do?

No action is required on your part. Your video is still available worldwide.

The video is still available... The broadcast is labeled as "Matched third party content.". Why do I get a copyright info from FUNimation about a video that is not from their dub?! I'm not even from America for crying out loud! I have no idea why. It doesn't even look like a warning to me.

Another one is a lame-assed poor attempt of an AMV, but it received no notices, no copyright info, nothing.

The third one is a clip show about the Arabic dub voices and I made it private to avoid any "potential" trouble. I had more videos in the past, but I deleted them all not noticing the ability to make them private. Most of them are in my Metacafe account.

I'll give you another example. I have two Gintama videos. Both of them are from fan-subbed episodes. One, is a stupid funny scene with 2,889 views, and nobody bitched about it. But the other, is an ordinary moment, and it got this:

Copyright Info: Kagura finds Sadaharu
Your video, Kagura finds Sadaharu , may include content that is owned or licensed by these content owners:

* Content owner: TV Tokyo Type: Audiovisual content

As a result, your video is blocked worldwide.

What should I do?

Please refrain from uploading someone else's copyrighted content to YouTube without authorization. Note that simply purchasing the CD or DVD does not give you this authorization.

Again... I don't get this!! Why one video gets a copyright info when a similar one does not get one?! It's from the same material, uploaded for same purpose of entertaining other Youtubers! Shouldn't they get treated the same way?!

---

I might go a bit longer with this... bear with me...

I have a separate channel devoted only for a censored version of certain licnesed anime. A full series! And yet, got no DMCA claims, no copyright infos, nothing! Is it because it's a "censored" version?! That might explain it... but don't you think I should get one for it?!

Another thing that intrigues me, is this... a video is deleted by Youtube from the uploader's channel. But, other users who uploaded the exact same video remains as it is! I say it again... "Why?!!" What's with this differentiation between the users?!! They deleted a video... why don't they delete the other copies available on other channels?!

---

Youtube has gone downhill with everything gets deleted in the name of "Copyright Infringements" and the "DMCA". People can't even do video reviews of anything without a getting a DMCA claim unless they are a big-named website. Nobody can share his thoughts or opinions in video format anymore the same way is used to be in the past!

The only way left to stay on Youtube is by doing stupid, meaningless things full of crappy retarded contents. Because that's what they like, as seen on the front page and the Videos Being Watched Now page.

There is no place left for any intelligent people on that site. End of story.

You know, this post would've been a good topic for a rant on Youtube, but screw that... it'll be flagged by trolls and then will get deleted. Why should I bother?!

[SilverPlaqueVII]

SHINOBI-03's right, I have a video and I did keep it without taken it down:

Your video, Dragon Ball: Cell: The Perfect Ultimate Android is Born Remastered (HQ) , may include content that is owned or licensed by these content owners:

* Content owner: Funimation Entertainment Type: Visual content

What should I do?

No action is required on your part. Your video is still available worldwide.

See, still fine and running strong.

You can override copyright with a legal passage. I always do.

What's with this differentiation between the users?!! They deleted a video... why don't they delete the other copies available on other channels?!

There's no difference, they just haven't gotten to those videos yet. They can't pull what isn't reported. Once the other videos are noticed and reported they'll be removed as well. It's like asking why one bank robber got arrested when the other didn't. They just haven't found the other one yet.

Also, the different response to content are not YouTube's doing. Things like muting audio, removing the video, blocking it in certain locations, etc. That's all determined by the copyright owner. WMG and Sony Music, for instance, will have ads placed on the video page, linking to places you can buy the song, if there's an audio content match. Some others will have audio muted preferring not to let it be heard for free.

Some video content owners will allow clips without issue, some will have their distribution limited so as not to step on other copyright toes, others will have them pulled completely not wanting any free distribution of their content, even in a limited fashion. I've not yet seen any video content matches that have ads for purchasing of the product, but I wouldn't be surprised if those exist as well. (In fact, that's probably what keeps FUNi content matches on YT, like the one SilverPlaque mentioned.)

You can override copyright with a legal passage. I always do.

A Fair Use disclaimer is not 'get out of jail free card' for posting whatever you want. If it's legitimate Fair Use (such as the inconsistency videos DaizEX had up) then it might have an effect. But just throwing it up on random videos that do not fall under Fair Use wont work (such as random clips of shows and such).

And putting up a "such-and-such is the copyright of so-and-so and no infringement was intended, nor do I claim this as my own work, yada-yada" disclaimer? Utter waste of time. They do absolutely nothing except make you feel better. It's like those old disclaimers you'd find on ROM sites that said you could legally download things you didn't own so long as you deleted them in 24 hours. Or the current ones that say you can legally download games you do own. You can't, in either case. Both instances are still considered theft because even in the latter the ROM or ISO you are downloading did not come from the product you have.

And even if it did, that's still a gray area, because companies claim making digital copies of their stuff is a breech of copyright while it could technically fall under Fair Use and, as far as I can remember, no official court ruling has yet settled the matter.
