There should be serious financial consequences for submitting a bogus copyright claim.
There probably are but only if you pursue it in civil court, which I wouldn’t be surprised to see Nvidia do.
There aren’t any repercussions for submitting a false DMCA claim. There are for pushing the claim after the target files a counterclaim, but it’d require an uphill legal battle that most people aren’t able to fight so they simply give in and pull their video even if it falls under fair use.
Then to add to that, YouTube’s own policy will suspend your account after a few copyright claims regardless of their merits, and getting strikes removed is nearly impossible.
Basically if you’re not a major corporation with a legal team on standby, you’re getting screwed by both sides.
It should be noted that this is illegal. „Abusing Youtube‘s copyright system“ really is just a euphemism for actual theft.
Also, I recently learnt that it forces the other channel to provide their personal details directly to the person that raises the claim (the person who raises the claim doesn’t need to provide their details). I watched a video the other week where some streamer started harassing another streamer, filed a copyright claim to get their personal details, and used that to find out where they go to University etc.
Wasn’t the point of the take down notice to highlight that the dlss tech is based on stolen data?
One bullshit system affecting another.
Real cool.
It doesn’t have to be like this. We could use government to actually break up and regulate these gigantic companies.
This is really less to do with any companies and more to do with poorly written copyright legislation (DMCA).
Who uh … who do you think wrote the DMCA? That is definitely one of the shitty systems I am referrimg to above.
…companies do not write legislation. Politicians do.
Oh boy. Have you heard of this concept calling lobbying?
Your politicians don’t represent you, they represent the highest bidder, which are the wealthy corporations trying to enslave you.
Yes. Lobbyists also don’t write legislation.
That is, unfortunately incorrect. They write it up and their pet legislators introduce it. Yes it has to get voted on and there is more to it, but the actual verbiage? That is all too often written by lobbyists.
It’s not incorrect.
Oh you sweeeeeet summer child you.
Oh, honey, God bless your little heart…
Please inform yourself of the adjacency of lobbyist centers and capital hill.
Politicians don’t write shit, they get given frameworks and proposals from lobbyists and “industry leaders”, sometimes they get made into law directly without edit, especially when it comes to smaller ordinances.
There are designated handlers from the larger lobby groups for designated politicans and congress-critters.
They should wear jumpsuits like nascar, maybe you and the public would understand it better.
Edit: Looking at the rest of your replies you’re getting downvoted to oblivion for denying reality.
I don’t need to inform myself of anything. I already know. The lobbyists do not write legislation.
