Given recent push for Nintendo to release a proper localization of Mother 3 (even if it's just a contractually-approved buy-out of @ClydeMandelin's effort), I'd like to highlight an adjunct issue plaguing the gaming community: The asymmetry of automated content takedowns.
For years, I've introduced people to the Earthbound series by way of the excellent historical deep dives done by Clan of the Gray Wolf on YouTube, namely 16-bit Gems #30 (Rise of the RPG), followed by #10 and #11 (Earthbound-specific), emceed by the excellent @Roo_CotGW.
So, imagine my unwelcome shock when this evening, I went to pull up the same playlist, only to find that the first of the three-part Earthbound history (#10) is unavailable because @Sony have restricted it on copyright grounds.
It's equally hilarious and pathetic. The series of videos uses completely free music for backing. The only remotely questionable thing in the first part is the Mother commercial, which falls *well* within the scope of fair use, due to the series's documentary nature.
But since CotGW has apparently been defunct for 4-5 years, there's nobody there to counter-claim the automated takedown. So, that's where we're at, as far as digital rights go in 2021. If you're a major publisher, just wait long enough and you can fuck up anyone's evening.
It doesn't matter whether you're in the legal right or not. It doesn't matter if someone's there to fight back against your automated bullshit. Just copyright-claim everything and fuck everyone up, because might makes right, right?
Apropos of nothing, I was just reading this back and realized that of all things, I omitted a critical word in the first tweet in the thread: Given *the* recent push.
