Short story is that she made a video called "Woke Disney" that used "Song of the Roustabouts" from Dumbo. Universal Music Group put an AdSense claim on it. Having ads on the video is in violation with her contract from her sponsor, Audible. Lindsay argues that her use of the song falls under fair use (which it totally does). YouTube was like "Nah, UMG can claim it."

And the point of this is not to get this specific copyright claim removed by YT, but to really address how YT is shit-tier in regards to handling these kinds of claims, almost always siding with the corporations.

She's actually trying to drum up some serious support for her side on this, and, in her words, is actually making this a legitimate "thing".

Of the "It's on" variety and all.

Should be interesting to watch how this proceeds. Not super optimistic, but we'll see.

If were thinking of the same thing that was none other than Chris Hansen and his new crew after they brought predator chronicles or whatever its called now back.

Lmao, she wasn't even running ads on the video. Why doesn't YT just admit they don't give a fuck? Everyone knows they don't, might as well come clean.

predator chronicles

I believe it's called "Predator Concrete Jungle" now but I could be thinking of something else.

There's no way they can ban Ellis without making an even bigger problem for themselves. She's huge and very well respected.

I remember now. It was actually Family Guy. They put someone's YouTube video in an episode and then did a copyright strike on the original video

She stands a good chance to make it happen. She's obviously smart, but more importantly, a lot of other big youtubers like her.

Lol people mad because someone they watch is bitching about not making money off a video. The cult of personality is true with many YouTubers. I don't really care for one about YouTube and it's policies because they don't affect me, but when they hurt your so or so YouTuber ITS A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY!

YouTube could cut out monetization tomorrow because it's their site ffs. Just keep donating to your favorites paytreon and get them to shut up about their first world problems.

If they did cut off monetization that would help her in this case because it's the other shady company exploiting and monetizing her video.
