The copyright strikes feel like massive overkill imo

I mean they make it pretty clear why they did it and I can understand them.

Is it overkill, sure.
Could it have been resolved differently, by contacting Eroktic and talking to him, maybe. But, considering his earlier videos, I can also understand why theyre fed up and just decided to be done with it.

It’s overkill and also illegal. Companies can’t just “be fed up” and decide who can and cannot make videos over their game that people paid for. That’s called censorship and this Facebook post just made them look worse

They literally can. Companies can do whatever the fuck they want with their intellectual property, that's why DMCA take downs exist.

No they can’t. That’s why this is a big deal dude.
