1
00:00:00,010 --> 00:00:04,710
all right well I've been sitting at my
2
00:00:04,710 --> 00:00:08,790
desk kind of putting off starting this
3
00:00:08,790 --> 00:00:10,679
stream for about the last 15 minutes but
4
00:00:10,679 --> 00:00:13,820
I guess I'm just gonna get on with it so
5
00:00:13,820 --> 00:00:16,770
we kind of talked about this on land
6
00:00:16,770 --> 00:00:19,039
show but there's been a little bit of
7
00:00:19,039 --> 00:00:22,109
drama and then as of today there's been
8
00:00:22,109 --> 00:00:26,010
more drama around Linus Media Group -
9
00:00:26,010 --> 00:00:28,439
tech tips me personally whatever sort of
10
00:00:28,439 --> 00:00:30,510
whatever entity you want to focus your
11
00:00:30,510 --> 00:00:35,340
Ire at running out and copyright striking
12
00:00:35,340 --> 00:00:39,840
other content creators and so I typed
13
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,840
myself up some notes here to hopefully
14
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:47,930
address this and lay it to rest once and
15
00:00:47,930 --> 00:00:53,370
for all so when it comes to I guess the
16
00:00:53,370 --> 00:00:56,789
first thing I want to do is sort of ask
17
00:00:56,789 --> 00:01:00,629
our community the broader YouTube
18
00:01:00,629 --> 00:01:04,199
community in general just people ask
19
00:01:04,199 --> 00:01:08,880
them to try to think critically anytime
20
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,640
they run up against some kind of
21
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,390
accusation like I'm not saying that you
22
00:01:15,390 --> 00:01:17,070
know all accusations should be dismissed
23
00:01:17,070 --> 00:01:18,600
I'm just also not saying that all
24
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,810
accusations should be taken entirely at
25
00:01:21,810 --> 00:01:25,310
face value and then just run with so
26
00:01:25,310 --> 00:01:27,420
here are some of the questions that I
27
00:01:27,420 --> 00:01:29,610
would probably ask myself if I were to
28
00:01:29,610 --> 00:01:31,710
encounter any sort of any sort of drama
29
00:01:31,710 --> 00:01:34,350
not just YouTube drama who are the
30
00:01:34,350 --> 00:01:36,570
stakeholders here what do they
31
00:01:36,570 --> 00:01:40,590
individually stand to lose or gain what
32
00:01:40,590 --> 00:01:43,490
is the actual solution to this problem
33
00:01:43,490 --> 00:01:46,920
who has the power to enact that solution
34
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:48,840
where could I find more information
35
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,560
about what's going on
36
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,560
is it worth the time that I'm investing
37
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,840
to find that information in the case of
38
00:01:57,840 --> 00:01:59,189
the particular thing that's going on
39
00:01:59,189 --> 00:02:02,899
where people are receiving content ID
40
00:02:02,899 --> 00:02:05,759
notifications not to be confused with a
41
00:02:05,759 --> 00:02:07,500
copyright strike I'll talk about that
42
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:09,289
later
43
00:02:09,289 --> 00:02:11,670
but in the case of people receiving
44
00:02:11,670 --> 00:02:13,450
these Content ID notification
45
00:02:13,450 --> 00:02:15,209
has anyone have these people actually
46
00:02:15,209 --> 00:02:17,920
contacted - Media Group about it
47
00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:20,530
directly we actually have a contact us
48
00:02:20,530 --> 00:02:22,510
email on our corporate website we also
49
00:02:22,510 --> 00:02:24,760
have a contact us email for a Linus tech tips
50
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,650

stuff does get monitored on business
52
00:02:28,750 --> 00:02:30,340
days mind you like this is my long
53
00:02:30,340 --> 00:02:32,349
weekend it's family day here in British
54
00:02:32,349 --> 00:02:35,650
Columbia but I'm dealing with this
55
00:02:35,650 --> 00:02:37,330
instead of doing what I would really
56
00:02:37,330 --> 00:02:39,760
much rather be doing um here are some
57
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,170
here are some other questions we can ask
58
00:02:41,170 --> 00:02:43,150
ourselves whenever we encounter drama
59
00:02:43,150 --> 00:02:45,819
what else is already posted in the
60
00:02:45,819 --> 00:02:49,269
comments on the video is there something
61
00:02:49,269 --> 00:02:50,799
with a ton of upvotes that sort of
62
00:02:50,799 --> 00:02:52,870
answers my question am I being
63
00:02:52,870 --> 00:02:55,480
manipulated to join a crusade is the is
64
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,310
it based on ignorance or is there some
65
00:02:57,310 --> 00:03:00,519
kind of agenda so those are all the just
66
00:03:00,519 --> 00:03:02,380
general questions that I'd really like
67
00:03:02,380 --> 00:03:04,480
people to ask themselves whenever they
68
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,480
are sort of called to join a cause with
69
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:08,950
the most important ones I think being
70
00:03:08,950 --> 00:03:11,170
who are the stakeholders what do they
71
00:03:11,170 --> 00:03:13,569
stand to lose and gain what is the
72
00:03:13,569 --> 00:03:16,000
actual solution and what could or has
73
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,400
already been done about it and then for
74
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,590
for myself personally this has been
75
00:03:20,590 --> 00:03:24,790
there's been kind of frustrating
76
00:03:24,790 --> 00:03:29,319
offensive hurtful I'm you know there's a
77
00:03:29,319 --> 00:03:30,579
bunch of different words for it because
78
00:03:30,579 --> 00:03:32,200
the the questions that I'd like you guys
79
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,079
to ask yourselves about me and and my
80
00:03:35,079 --> 00:03:37,870
company specifically is is Linus Media
81
00:03:37,870 --> 00:03:41,260
Group some kind of monster that's not
82
00:03:41,260 --> 00:03:43,959
still run by real people who give a
83
00:03:43,959 --> 00:03:47,410
as opposed to you know some nameless
84
00:03:47,410 --> 00:03:49,299
faceless corporation like yeah we're
85
00:03:49,299 --> 00:03:52,120
we're on the bigger side especially of
86
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,920
tech YouTube channels but that doesn't
87
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,530
mean that like we've worked hard to get
88
00:03:56,530 --> 00:03:59,470
here it's not like it we got there by
89
00:03:59,470 --> 00:04:01,299
being you know jerks or anything we
90
00:04:01,299 --> 00:04:03,310
haven't you know engaged in market
91
00:04:03,310 --> 00:04:05,079
manipulation or any other unfair
92
00:04:05,079 --> 00:04:07,420
competitive practice you know another
93
00:04:07,420 --> 00:04:09,880
question to ask yourself is is the
94
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,040
behavior that Linus media groups being
95
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:13,810
accused of or - personally is being
96
00:04:13,810 --> 00:04:17,530
accused of is that in character is Linus
97
00:04:17,530 --> 00:04:21,579
Pro censorship does he silence criticism
98
00:04:21,579 --> 00:04:25,450
is there is that behavior that anyone
99
00:04:25,450 --> 00:04:27,040
has actually encountered
100
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,830
from us in the past and if we haven't
101
00:04:29,830 --> 00:04:32,650
then you know is it may be worthwhile to
102
00:04:32,650 --> 00:04:34,290
give the benefit of the doubt
103
00:04:34,290 --> 00:04:37,900
so all right now we're we're past sort
104
00:04:37,900 --> 00:04:40,840
of the the preface to the stream so
105
00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:43,000
let's get into some of the points that
106
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,730
I've more completely prepared I was like
107
00:04:45,730 --> 00:04:47,530
sitting inside my car having sort of
108
00:04:47,530 --> 00:04:49,330
scrolled soot scroll through some
109
00:04:49,330 --> 00:04:50,890
comments on the forum some comments on
110
00:04:50,890 --> 00:04:52,840
YouTube I'm trying to figure out sort of
111
00:04:52,840 --> 00:04:54,520
what I need to address so I wrote myself
112
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,370
up kind of a little script here but of
113
00:04:57,370 --> 00:04:59,760
course it's all in it's all my own words
114
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,140
just a few guys see me kind of looking
115
00:05:02,140 --> 00:05:03,760
down it's because I'm looking at this at
116
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:04,990
the screen I'm just dreaming this awful
117
00:05:04,990 --> 00:05:08,050
webcam at my house so here's the deal
118
00:05:08,050 --> 00:05:09,730
look I think I just shook the camera
119
00:05:09,730 --> 00:05:12,550
sorry about that guys so I'm not gonna
120
00:05:12,550 --> 00:05:15,220
be naming any of the individuals that
121
00:05:15,220 --> 00:05:17,530
are stirring the pot here because my
122
00:05:17,530 --> 00:05:19,570
general policy when it comes to public
123
00:05:19,570 --> 00:05:22,510
drama is one of zero acknowledgement
124
00:05:22,510 --> 00:05:25,500
like if there's a legitimate grievance
125
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:29,320
no problem get in touch we'll do our
126
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,940
best to solve it I think we have a
127
00:05:33,940 --> 00:05:36,460
pretty good reputation not just among
128
00:05:36,460 --> 00:05:38,710
viewers but within the creator community
129
00:05:38,710 --> 00:05:41,620
as being an organization like not just
130
00:05:41,620 --> 00:05:44,530
me of course it's there's 20 plus people
131
00:05:44,530 --> 00:05:46,570
that work at Linus Media Group but being
132
00:05:46,570 --> 00:05:47,890
an organization that just generally
133
00:05:47,890 --> 00:05:50,260
cares about fixing problems and doing
134
00:05:50,260 --> 00:05:55,540
the right thing I mean an example of
135
00:05:55,540 --> 00:05:57,100
sort of our zero acknowledgement like
136
00:05:57,100 --> 00:05:59,830
you you just you won't you won't hear
137
00:05:59,830 --> 00:06:01,660
from us about this stuff I feel like I
138
00:06:01,660 --> 00:06:03,760
can bring up this one now because it's
139
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,240
sort of not relevant anymore but we had
140
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,240
an issue with totalbiscuit at one point
141
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,420
where after having a relationship in the
142
00:06:13,420 --> 00:06:14,800
past we had him on the way on show at
143
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,320
one point he put me and Luc personally
144
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,080
on blast publicly over something that
145
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,920
was posted by a user on our forum and
146
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,080
that was instead of contacting either me
147
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,320
or Luc directly and the really bizarre
148
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,720
thing about that was that I know a
149
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,420
hundred percent that he had my email
150
00:06:34,420 --> 00:06:37,630
since he had no problem asking for and
151
00:06:37,630 --> 00:06:40,780
even receiving multiple times text
152
00:06:40,780 --> 00:06:43,420
or from me and then like when I reached
153
00:06:43,420 --> 00:06:45,670
out directly rather than replying on
154
00:06:45,670 --> 00:06:46,810
Twitter because I'm not going to do that
155
00:06:46,810 --> 00:06:50,100
when I reached out directly like yo WTF
156
00:06:50,100 --> 00:06:53,889
can you retract your comments publicly
157
00:06:53,889 --> 00:06:56,830
cuz that's really unfair like this this
158
00:06:56,830 --> 00:06:58,510
is a user comment on our forum you
159
00:06:58,510 --> 00:07:00,610
didn't even you didn't even contact us
160
00:07:00,610 --> 00:07:03,280
and asked us to have it dealt with he
161
00:07:03,280 --> 00:07:05,290
basically said and I'm paraphrasing here
162
00:07:05,290 --> 00:07:06,760
I didn't feel like pulling up the email
163
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,190
cuz it was really annoying he basically
164
00:07:09,190 --> 00:07:12,070
said like I don't get why you expect me
165
00:07:12,070 --> 00:07:13,390
to reach out to you directly we're not
166
00:07:13,390 --> 00:07:15,100
friends and you need to moderate your
167
00:07:15,100 --> 00:07:17,110
forum better our subreddit is moderated
168
00:07:17,110 --> 00:07:18,669
you're responsible for the content on
169
00:07:18,669 --> 00:07:21,190
your forum I'm kind of sitting here
170
00:07:21,190 --> 00:07:22,450
going what are you even talking about
171
00:07:22,450 --> 00:07:26,350
like at its peak your subreddit was a
172
00:07:26,350 --> 00:07:28,360
small fraction of our forum we have like
173
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,220
a really really debt it like massive
174
00:07:30,220 --> 00:07:31,960
shout-out to our forum moderators we
175
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,870
have a dedicated community over there
176
00:07:34,870 --> 00:07:37,720
and it's a lot of work what they do to
177
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,600
keep the Linus tech tips forum running
178
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,280
they're amazing they do a great job and
179
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:43,810
you go after my moderators who tell me
180
00:07:43,810 --> 00:07:46,419
they're you know they're subpar just
181
00:07:46,419 --> 00:07:48,280
because someone posted something that
182
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,650
was offensive to you but not necessarily
183
00:07:50,650 --> 00:07:51,850
even against our Community Guidelines
184
00:07:51,850 --> 00:07:53,830
actually don't remember exactly what the
185
00:07:53,830 --> 00:07:59,800
post was but like yeah he went on the
186
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,410
list you never saw another
187
00:08:02,410 --> 00:08:04,690
acknowledgement from Linus media group
188
00:08:04,690 --> 00:08:07,840
because that's that's the way that's the
189
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,620
way to me things should work that's the
190
00:08:11,620 --> 00:08:13,570
way my engagement with people on the
191
00:08:13,570 --> 00:08:15,850
internet works because that's how my
192
00:08:15,850 --> 00:08:18,160
human relationships works so whether
193
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,350
it's my household my friends my family
194
00:08:20,350 --> 00:08:21,550
my company
195
00:08:21,550 --> 00:08:24,250
these are drama-free zones and if you
196
00:08:24,250 --> 00:08:26,050
can't abide by those rules if you can't
197
00:08:26,050 --> 00:08:28,419
stay drama-free then I am well within my
198
00:08:28,419 --> 00:08:31,270
rights to completely ignore you and the
199
00:08:31,270 --> 00:08:36,820
funny thing is like like we've we try to
200
00:08:36,820 --> 00:08:40,690
like we do that in an effort to try and
201
00:08:40,690 --> 00:08:42,729
take the high road and a lot of the time
202
00:08:42,729 --> 00:08:44,770
I feel like we end up looking bad
203
00:08:44,770 --> 00:08:47,680
because other people get their shots in
204
00:08:47,680 --> 00:08:51,459
at us and we just we just never return
205
00:08:51,459 --> 00:08:54,370
fire like it's not like I've never had
206
00:08:54,370 --> 00:08:57,430
personal you know beef to use the lingo
207
00:08:57,430 --> 00:08:59,980
I suppose with other content creators
208
00:08:59,980 --> 00:09:03,340
but here's the thing I guarantee you
209
00:09:03,340 --> 00:09:06,190
don't know who they are because anyone
210
00:09:06,190 --> 00:09:08,340
that I have actually feuded with
211
00:09:08,340 --> 00:09:11,920
publicly like Jays two cents or Steve
212
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,870
from gamers Nexus trying to beat their
213
00:09:13,870 --> 00:09:15,880
benchmark scores or Paul and Kyle
214
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,710
ripping their award away from them at
215
00:09:17,710 --> 00:09:19,630
the end of scrapyard Wars or Louis
216
00:09:19,630 --> 00:09:22,360
Rossman with the whole you know baking a
217
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,310
GPU and oh wow you really shouldn't do
218
00:09:24,310 --> 00:09:26,620
that Linus he said it a little more
219
00:09:26,620 --> 00:09:27,940
colorfully than that but the point is
220
00:09:27,940 --> 00:09:30,630
the point is anyone that I have publicly
221
00:09:30,630 --> 00:09:33,940
feuded with or beefed with I both like
222
00:09:33,940 --> 00:09:36,370
and respect in private like these are
223
00:09:36,370 --> 00:09:39,130
people that I would sit down and have a
224
00:09:39,130 --> 00:09:40,780
drink without a trade show not that I
225
00:09:40,780 --> 00:09:42,550
drink but yeah I can have water they can
226
00:09:42,550 --> 00:09:43,780
have something stronger whatever works
227
00:09:43,780 --> 00:09:48,220
for them I'm not actually monitoring
228
00:09:48,220 --> 00:09:50,140
chat right now cuz I'm reading my thing
229
00:09:50,140 --> 00:09:53,380
but hopefully the stream is like working
230
00:09:53,380 --> 00:09:54,550
properly and stuff you know it seems
231
00:09:54,550 --> 00:09:56,950
like it's fine so back to the question
232
00:09:56,950 --> 00:10:00,340
of agendas this is the most important
233
00:10:00,340 --> 00:10:02,620
thing to think about again I'm not gonna
234
00:10:02,620 --> 00:10:04,810
be naming any names for reasons that
235
00:10:04,810 --> 00:10:06,760
I've explained already but I will say
236
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,800
that at least one individual out there
237
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,620
who has drawn attention to the matter of
238
00:10:11,620 --> 00:10:19,920
these Linus tech tips Content ID flags
239
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:25,210

00:10:32,380 --> 00:10:34,330
I'll get into why there's a bunch of
245

people complaining about these Content
246
00:10:35,770 --> 00:10:37,660
ID flags and why that's happening in a

little bit but there's so many people
248
00:10:39,630 --> 00:10:41,860
you're probably not going to guess the
249
00:10:41,860 --> 00:10:43,180
