@TeamYouTube @YTCreators US Copyright Act of 1976, allowance is made for “fair use” for purposes such as news reporting. If i use 14.5 seconds from a live webcam stream of the start of a Hurricane, that is included in a 15 minute+ video with original commentary

during a national emergency, clearly this was nothing to do with copyright but everything to do with making money from those facing danger and peril. As proven by the fact that the Hotels webcam remained monetized throughout, while people were loosing their lives
