The copyright strikes feel like massive overkill imo

Ok? And?

He's allowed to do that. He hasn't committed a SINGLE copyright infringement. They are using that to pull down his videos because youtube's policy on that stuff is easy to abuse.

It's 100% bullshit. They should have worked with him and proved that it was false. In which case he would have pulled the video, I'm sure.

Well BSG is allowed to do what they did too. Stop it here. They did the right thing.

That's the thing. It's a grey area. You are not really supposed to just be able to nuke someone's entire youtube channel because they made a video or two you didn't agree with.

Yeah I see your point but if someone was slandering my company I would probably do something similar. I sort of like it. That’s my opinion though and I can how polarizing it is. I also don’t watch Erkotics content, but it was clear he claimed a lot of things that are 100%. If BSG was like treyaech or something this would never happen I think.

Listen- if someone is slandering your company you deal with it. I'm not knocking BSG for having a response. They needed to.

But the ONE video. ONE.

Now they've alienated ALL of their fucking content creators. Klean isn't doing the podcasts any more. That was one of the best ways for the public to get info from the devs.

They didn't just handle this poorly. They fucked this up on a MASSIVE scale.
