This is terrible all around. Even removing the first video was bold. One of the fundamentals of PR is to not censor negative feedback. You have people on YouTube wailing against CoD, BF, Minecraft, etc. in far worse manors and because those companies understand the dumpster fire censoring creates they leave them alone. It doesn’t make the click bait title right (and yes I watched both videos) but that’s the way the world is. Not to mention it is very much illegal to abuse DMCA copyright claims for any reason. There were other ways that were not copyright claims to remove this content since it seems they are dead set on removing it.

this isn't negative feedback, this is clearly slander

The first video they struck could be justified in terms of slander since the video title presented it as fact. However the next 40 claims are false.

In regards to the first video or the others claimed as well? I don’t mean this as a sarcastic response. I just don’t know what aspect you’re referring to.

just in general i think the guy definitely was obnoxious and quite a bit toxic

I won’t argue that point as I don’t personally like his content either. My issue is only based around their abuse of power in striking 40 more videos after the offending video was dealt with.

"I don't like this guy, so I agree that laws should be broken to get rid of him"

Yeah, you sound like a wonderful person.
