Hi @TeamYouTube my entire channel with 183k subscribers had just been demonetized, this channel is my job and only income. I can't just lose the monetization like this, I have rent and bills to pay. What is happening? HELP @grandayy

Using an image of a show falls under fair use.

yes but like i just said, legally 'fair use' doesn't exist, YouTube can be held accountable now and even sued because you used a copyrighted image without permission. Fair use or not, in a court of law it doesn't matter.

It had never happened before and it simply won't happen. People are uploading full movies and parts of shows and they are either blocked worldwide, copyrighted and revenues are claimed by the claimant or deleted from the platform.
