Time for my periodic public callout of @UMG, who claimed this video, specifically the song starting at 13:43, an extremely clear-cut example of fair use, as the discussion is the lyrics of the claimed song. There's subtitles and everything.https://youtu.be/xU1ffHa47YY?t=823 …

See here's the thing - this video has sponsored content, meaning there should not be ads running on the thing at all. Because
@UMG has claimed the video and refused to release the claim, I am in violation with my contract with@Audible_com15 replies 129 retweets 4,042 likesShow this thread -
Technically, isn’t YouTube in violoation of that contract, since you and Audible both had good faith reasons to believe YouTube would never put ads on this video per their own policies regarding sponsored content? Might be time to get your sponsor involved...

That's a good question - since the video is marked as having sponsored content in the metadata, it's not like YouTube was unaware. What's the deal

Copyfraud under the DMCA is illegal. The fact that it's rarely prosecuted in court, and rarely enforced by YouTube, doesn't change that. And if you want to get in the weeds with YouTube's policy, shit policy doesn't exactly justify itself, especially when it encourages fraud.

You would have to prove that the company knew for a fact that it was fair use, something that is arguable, have fun convincing a judge or a jury of that. The policy is to protect youtube from the litany of actual copyright infringement that goes on on their site.
