    Good morning, Brad. I see it like this; people who steal your content to make their own, have empty lives. They have absolutely no creativity or willingness to get out, do an honest day's work and create their own content. We live in the era of instant gratification and for some folks, to get up off their lazy backsides is unthinkable. It's much easier for them to sit on their butts all day and take from others. Keep doing what you do, Brother! You can get up in the morning, look in the mirror and see and honest, hard working man. They can't do the same. Have a great day!

    I've been watching you for years and I know the difference between the true Copper Creek and the fake pages. You're the absolute best and I've always appreciated the soothing sounds you give to me. It always brings back memories of lazy summer days and Grandma's backyard. Thank you for what you do dear. I'm a fan that appreciates your content. The grass cutting content. The stuff about different equipment is blah blah blah to me 😂😂😂😂. Thank you friend ❤❤❤

    I feel you brother! If we post any copyrighted music in our videos, we get a notice right away and face possible shut down and loss of revenue. Seems to be very one-sided against the content creator who puts in the work. And you're right, Facebook doesn't care....we get the same emails back.

    That's such a shame, Brad. I totally agree with your frustration and am also disappointed with the lack of support you've received from FB. There really DOES need to be a swift and 100% effective recourse available for you (and others) who're being robbed. This is absolutely stealing and these lowlifes shouldn't be allowed to benefit (monetarily) from your hard work. Best of luck getting this fixed. I'm totally with you. Cheers from Texas

    Well, your good work is still being spread to many locations it may not have gotten to otherwise. I'm not advocating theft, or you not being paid for your work. I'm very sorry you are struggling with stress and your time got absorbed. Glad you are working to let it go. Best wishes and thank you for all the good work you have done over the years, and what you will still do in the future.

    I totally understand the anger and frustration when you see the thieves' pages. I hate Facebook, I pulled the plug on my account there years ago. I have no experience with TikTok. I think it's going to take an act of Congress to force these companies to do something about content thieves. It's so prevalent, it really is infuriating. Sorry you've had to deal with all this.

    what i'd do is just put my logo in the middle of the video so when they "screen record" & crop the video to hide your logo
    they are screwed because its in the middle.

    You could wear a hat that has your RUclips on it or something like that? Just put subtle things in your video that can't be blurred out like your polo shirts you could put the RUclips logo and your RUclips name on the front and back or something like that?
    These are Judy suggestions to try and help. If anything, use it as a mass marketing opportunity?

    I 100% percent agree Brad. Life is way too short to be running down things like this sucking all your time. It will change who you are! change how you approach your content and is simply not healthy for you and family. Not to mention, it is exhausting!. Your continent is great, I love to watch your videos. They are very informative. I have had people copy my content, and I'm just a tiny channel. But spending my time turning in copyright issues is not the way I want to live. Though I cannot stand a thief but if I respond to all of it then not only are they stealing my video content, They are stealing my time as well for me to copyright them. It's a crazy world we live in!. Where squatter's can move into a house and actually end up owning the house. Crazy world man, love the content.

    I make a comment that it is a stolen video. It doesn’t solve the problem, but maybe some people will make a similar comment and they won’t get viewers and thus won’t get money.
    I had one person say that the stolen videos were reaction videos…he explained that it was simply to get people’s reactions. I told him it is still theft and there is no justification for stealing another’s videos.

    I'm always looking out for stolen content from the real creators, I've reported to RUclips multiple times of stolen content on SB Mowing/Pressure washing along with a few others, I hate that some idiots will try to make a fast buck by stealing a known creators video/video footage that they worked hard on to share on their channel being stolen by an idiot and making that footage their y, I have confronted one thief on his own channel for video theft and he said he has the right to do what he does (stealing) because the video footage is on the Internet and he has a degree from some college or another, funny thing is, I haven't seen anything else from that channel that I have found to be stolen, and I haven't seen the channel doing any stealing on line

    I thought once you upload it becomes fair use. Plus when you upload a video and then you make money from it, then if someone re up loads it their views it gets has nothing to do with you.

    • @whatchyagonnado
      @whatchyagonnado 4 месяца назад

      It's part of the legal concept "copyright", defined as the exclusive legal right, given to an originator or an assignee to print, publish, perform, film, or record literary, artistic, or musical material, and to authorize others to do the same.
      Since the other channels have not been authorized, it is illegal. For anything made since 1978, copyright lasts for the lifetime of the creator plus 70 years.
      They would also be unlikely to fall under the Fair Use category, since they are being used for commercial content, they are not a work inspired by the original, they use the entire video almost exactly as it was originally posted, and the reposting could be considered as displacing "sales" (views) from the original.
      (from www.copyright.gov/fair-use/ )

    • @CopperCreekCuts
      @CopperCreekCuts  4 месяца назад +2

      Fair use requires you to transform it in some way, usually by adding commentary. It doesn't give you license you just steal the video and reupload it.
