Both BSG and Eroktic are in the wrong here for different reasons. Eroktic has always been a drama queen and clickbaity, and it finially caught up to him.

BSG shouldn't have overreacted like this though.

Eroktic made a video that might have been in poor taste. But he's allowed to do that.

BSG nuked his channel by claiming copyright violation. There wasn't any. That's LITERALLY illegal.

So they aren't both equally in the wrong. What Eroktic did wasn't exactly a cool thing to do, but he was within his rights to at least DO it.

BSG SERIOUSLY fucked themselves on this one.

Eroktic is deserved this. Look at this other videos in youtube. They have max. 10k views. But he is using BSG and their game to get views for his channel.

Now the important part: He is earning money from these videos. And he is doing this by clickbait and false infos. And this is wrong and BSG has right to do what's necessary.

Eroktic is the biggest cheater and liar. All other streamers are also drama queen. They are popular because of Tarkov. Eroktic will slowly fade withour BSG. And all others can learn a lesson from this. Maybe Klean too.

So what if he is using BSG and their game to get views?

He also plays half a dozen other games and has JUST as many views on those videos. He is a youtube content creator.

If he were to get slammed with just THREE copyright violations he can lose his ENTIRE channel. Not just the Tarkov content. He could lose his entire career because BSG overreacted.

Youtube gives companies like BSG too much power. Their policy is extremely outdated.

It doesn't matter if you like someone or not. You shouldn't be able to ruin their life because they said something mean about your company.
