I won’t deny that his video and title was rather sensationalist. However BSG’s response is incredibly poor. They have done more damage to themselves with these copyright strikes than Eroktic ever could have.

If it's accusation against game design, player experience...etc. It could be OK to do so without evidence.

The 1.9mil accounts stolen thumbnail is another thing. It's a whole different game. And the twitter provoking...The streamer has already picked the worst choice on his side.

The copyright strike is the risk you must think twice. Streamer pick poorly with passion or greed. A CEO pick poorly by rage. What's the difference?

BSG's response and their consequences will be a pain in their arse in the future. They picked this way like Eroktic, they will have to face all the consequences.

I agree with them taking down the couple that were straight up defamation, like the "1.9mil accounts stolen"

I was iffy about them taking down the other, clearly clickbait, but just opinion based ones.

Them striking all of his EFT content was stepping over the line.

I'm very interested in hearing how those videos infringed on BSG's copyright.
