Youtube Issues
Added 2021-01-11 11:08:59 +0000 UTCHi everyone,
I am back to work today after a week off and I was hoping to be able to share some more positive content with you, but unfortunately, that will have to wait a few days, as I am dealing with some issues on my Youtube channel.
A company is claiming I am using their content in a way that infringes on their copyright, and have filed 2 copyright strikes on my channel (on older videos from a couple years ago), despite me contacting them after the first one and offering to co-operate and remove any content they didn't approve of provided they retracted their claim and didn't file any further ones.
Despite my best efforts, the company has been extremely hostile and aggressive, and is now threatening my livelihood and my channel. One more strike and my channel gets shut down and I lose all my content.
So for now, I am privating most of my videos while I review all the them for any mention of them (they don't even want their name used without a paid license).
I am going through all my videos, which is taking some time, and just wanted to warn you that I might be a little quiet in the next few days because of this.
I am so sorry, thank you for your support.
Love, M
PS : These strikes are not in relation to my artwork, they are regarding footage I used featuring content from a third party in some of my older videos.
