    So let me get this straight? You, understandably did that project on your own time and made the video yourself and shared it with RUclips and for the rest of the world. But then CNN uses, makes billions, you reach out and can do absolutely nothing about using it without your permission, you make your parody news station and mythbusters merch, and they get to send the cease and desist?

    • @poipoi300
      @poipoi300 Год назад +1

      Settling says nothing of the legality of an action or which party would win. They would settle because actually fighting and going through the legal process costs much more even if they win. In most cases, it's simply about winning more and losing less. You also can't deduce that a monetary exchange took place because credit is given on a news channel. If anything, it's more likely that no money was involved if credit is given. Do not breed.

    Just a FYI; Established Titles isn’t a real thing. They’re a scam. Scotland has a law that separates owning land and obtaining a title as lord or lady. Along with that they don’t actually plant a tree, they just “donate” to a company, but there is no official public record of any transaction between the two companies.
    The owner of Established Titles runs two other companies Deal Dash, and another company that literally strives to make scam companies. They have some 40+ failed companies and 2 successful ones… Deal Dash and Established Titles.
    I know they may be what pays the bills, but they’re not a legitimate company, they falsely advertise what they do, and the owner thrives off people who don’t do the full research.

    10:54 That about summarizes the video.
    They stole your IP. They did this by publishing your material in totality for purposes other than news reporting. This is apparent because they didn't create anything novel with their publications of your material to the point that all they apparently did was replace your audio with music they undoubtedly paid for license to use after captioning a paraphrase of the content of that audio (whether from the audible portion or the captioning of such being immaterial)... not that there would have been a difference had the text been vocalized because the outcome is the same - they created nothing, they merely republished your material for their commercial gain to the point of using it to direct traffick to their home page and that infringes on your commercial interest especially given the fact that CNN is reknown around the world for being a proverbial dumpster fire.
    Any media source they published that material to should have received a copyright claim from you.

    I'd recommend having a talk with some lawyers.
    Fair use encompasses a bunch of things, such as transformative use, reviewing (like a movie critic making a review of a movie), but also news reporting. So unfortunately they can put the video of the snakes on their social media for the purpose of reporting on the news.
    But you may have noticed that they didn't really report on the news. They posted the video with a small caption of what you'd see in the video, not reported on the fact that someone made the robot contraption for the snakes. It's the equivalent of a news station showing the full music video of Lindsey Stirling's Roundabout Rival without so much as mentioning her name. So claiming that CNN reported on the news in this case is on shaky grounds. The way their posts are made give off the impression that CNN MADE the video, which is not the case.
    Another thing is that they likely earned money off of the video. With these sorts of things, monetization is an important factor. The judge would look at whether or not it substitutes the original market. The original market is in this case this RUclips channel. And CNN posting the video on all their social media without any form of credit is definitely substituting the original market in my opinion.
    So i think you would be in the right to issue DMCA takedown notices here and if it were to go to court, i think it might be in your favor.
    Do keep in mind that I'm not a legal expert, so it is possible I missed something. But I would definitely have a conversation with some lawyers about this.

      CNN would definitely just take the video down rather than go to court, so in pure financial terms, it's probably best to just take the license fee (and maybe haggle it a bit, don't just take the first offer).
      A video of a robot snake is just a drop in the bucket for CNN, they're not gonna fight in court. It would cost them way more than the video ever would get them.

      Also I thought I should note: The Fair Use doctrine isn’t like a big umbrella for news networks to steal other peoples’ work and not credit or get permission - that’s still plagiarism. The dude who said it is wrong (won’t mention how stupid the “you should be grateful for the exposure” bullshit is.) It’s just that currently nobody really has the funds to take it to court and create strong case law prohibiting news networks from directly violating Fair Use. Same reason why RUclips can have such a stupid amount of leeway on what their impression of “Fair Use” is. Just because people do it and get away with it doesn’t mean that it’s okay (or really legal.)
      Reporting is just as viable under Fair Use as Parody and Critique is, and people can’t rip movies and place it on their site and monetize it just because they write an article about how stupid it is.
