So many people on youtube are fighting to maintain there channels. Thanks for passing your experience on to those who need it. I had left a comment also with Brad and Lex to talk to you when they posted that they thought that their channel was done.
This what I mean by using your platform to help others this is why I got Hella respect for you G. You already know you my brother. Imma recommend this video to any content creator going thru this. Respect 🙏🏾 💯
My brother. Thank you. You know we all look out for one another. I just want to do my best to help anyone who may be hesitant to hit one of us up. Much love brother. 🙏 💯
I just want to say, as a fan of reaction channels, thank you. Thank you for being so selfless about this, helping other creators. These companies are so short sighted. I have gotten into so much music because of reaction channels. They have revenue from me because of reaction channels. Apparently no one ever told them not to bite the hand that feeds them, for free! I appreciate all that you and other reactors have to go thru to put out content for us to enjoy. I sincerely thank you.
Wildly helpful - thank you so much, Cliff. This topic is always burned in our brains, and I can't tell you how helpful it is to hear your experience and guidance . There aren't enough resources like this for Reactors. Thanks for being the Pathfinder!
A huge THANK YOU for posting this and helping ALL my other content creators on RUclips!!!! I've been subscribed to you for a long time and was watching you going through all this mess with RUclips last year...you are such a help to everyone who I watch,and im so glad you found a way to get back to doing your reaction videos...and yes,I watch Brad & Lex,Knox Hill,and several other creators you've help beat copyright strikes...so I am a loyal follower always.your a ROCKSTAR for this!!!😃🎶✌
Standing for truth and honesty. You’re the one who has this attitude and I’m sure it will remain being this way. Thanks for your patience and dedication. Whole lotta love to you ❤️🇺🇦
Get 'em Cliff! Get 'em!!! I love how RUclips doesn't "mediate", but they are literally in between the content creator and the artist! Sounds like mediation to me!!! All that RUclips is worried about is making every penny they can off other people's work!!! They don't give a shit about creators or viewers!
Brilliant! Thank you as a fan of reaction videos. I follow Brad & Lex and worried about them being "shut down" but never had any expertise to advise them, but thought there must be fellow reactors out there that have been through this ringer!
You are amazing. I'm so glad you helped Brad and Lex, they are doing a great job with their channel, and don't deserve this kind of stress, especially with a new baby. I always appreciate and enjoy your reactions, you have a lot of knowledge and humor. thank you for being such a great person!
Thanks for this bro. Unfortunately this goes on for any artist who leases beats cause someone out there always does a content id claim. Going through my 1st dispute appeal now where they have 7 days to review. It's crazy how its just the claimants word against your proof and they dont have to provide a reason or proof? They need to fix this. But thanks again for this info. Salute 🙏
I love reaction channels. I appreciate when people escape their comfort zones to experience something different. Music companies and bands cracking down I don't understand. Bands should want to expand their audiences. Guess what? If people like your music, people will pay if they like something enough. We want to support the groups we love. Thank you for trying to help others. A lot of these people whom we have been watching for sometimes years start to feel like family.
Good for you Cliff, if it was not for people like you out there giving help to those who need help, these criminals who are narcissistic sociopaths, and enjoy, scaring people who don't know the laws. You are a true hero. Thank you.
BRO! I needed this! They're hitting Reaction channels like crazy. Especially those '3rd party fake claims'. Thanks for this, I've been trying to fight every single one. I'm a new up and coming reaction channel and it's disheartening to receive so many. I've not had a strike yet but I know it's coming so this is helpful.
I think it's awful how yall go through this, but i find it amazing that you have helped out other reactors. That's awesome. You show love to everyone and that's great
Good lookin' out Brother nl. Like it or not, you're looked up to in this community, and it's an honor to someone every time you're just being you lol. I find it refreshing and awesome to see you stepping up to remind folks of their own power, that it and they are real. I'm overspeaking that but you already know lol.
You’re a genius. I’m going to react to my own tribute and review videos of tv shows. Because they won’t let me use the show. I love this advice. I’ll do one by one and counter appeal. Omg this really opened up my plans. Thanks!!
I’m not even a reactor and I still found this video extremely informational. I do watch a lot of reactions. You are absolutely my favorite reactor and what you do for people is truly wonderful. This video also is great for us who don’t have any content to get a better understanding of what you creators go through and understand why people have to record their content a certain way. You are great. Please keep doing what your doing. 😊 thank you
Thanks for doing this! You should probably reach out to Jamel_aka_Jamal as he posted something just a day ago about music being dead. He is getting the treatment you got right now and it would be sad to see him go. Hopefully, he may see that post as well. Again, it is amazing kindness from you to do this. Kudos to you sir!
@CliffBeatsOfficial hi not sure if u will read n see this, but I've got my own small reactions channel I had 1 strike for 2 months then I just got 2 more in 2 days for babymetal reactions which one is over a month old n I didn't have copyright on and actully got a small amount of revenue from but now I got two strikes out of the blue which say I've now got 3 n my channel is going to be deleted in 7 days, I now submitted a counter notification is there anything else I can do? Thanks
This is why i subbed to you Cliff. . your willingness to help others comes through in your content. i am not a YT but have seen for months now how hard it's getting for creators on this platform, much respect and hope your well.
I feel like I've been gaslit by so many creators about this topic and finally getting validation in your video really meant a lot. The consistent advice was always "its simple - make your own content bro! Be original. Stop stealing work!" and I felt like I was going NUTS getting this 'advice' from people who also rely on fair use to make their content! Specifically video game creators. And its such common knowledge that RUclips is mostly content that relies on fair use! yet... when we seek advice about it we're told fair use only matters in court? seriously? I received my first video removal notification yesterday and I absolutely refuse to back down, but I was so scared of the legal repercussions and the counter claim not even getting to the copyright owner (being blocked on youtube). I am in love with the video I made and the thought of the video being gone on youtube forever is soul crushing. When you talked about how many strikes and claims you've gotten, it just made me feel a lot better about dealing with this. I'm extremely confident in my fair use defense and I'm taking the leap.
@@ExplorewithSarahlouise I know this is a moment of weakness on my part but I ended up removing the video hours before the takedown to avoid the strike, I made changes, and reposted. It is currently only blocked in Canada and Italy and the dispute was already rejected on that one. While its not ideal, its a better alternative than a strike. The video itself didn't perform well so I didn't think it was worth submitting a counter notification before. Its the ONLY video on my channel that is NOT monetized. All of my other videos have been fought and won. I'm simply just avoiding Lionsgate content until I can better prepare myself and my channel to go through a few weeks with no views to fight a copyright strike. I'd like to have a core audience first before I deal with that.
ah I got an immediate take down so I didn’t get the option to do that. Yeah it’s hard being smaller if I was bigger and had a lawyer it would be much easier:
this may have been recorded a while ago but as a reaction channel now that just got a warning about a copyright strike today, one of my mods sent me this video and I just want to say thank you for making this because this helped me out so much just with relief about situations like this as well as knowing how to move forward if this ever happens again! I appreciate you making this! thank you!
Such BS that YT says you can't counter a strike anymore. I wish they were more on our side. I got a strike for one of my reactions and won the counter, I just got another one. Thanks so much for sharing this. We have to stick together!!!
Thanks, Cliff! This has been very helpful. I started a reaction channel about a month ago and it grew quick (approaching 8,000 subs) and I think it pulled some extra attention to it. This is incredible helpful.
Yes thats another thing I hate about companies just because people CAN BE connected to social media 24/7/365 doesnt mean we dont walk away from it for hours at a time to get away from the burn out and do other things FThem all for that assumption!!
I got an under 2 minute Sekiro video taken down for some reason when there are THOUSANDS of others that are way longer and have been up for YEARS. And I'm definitely not monetized.
This what i went through..my last channel was banned for copyright restrictions on my music when i put licences down on everything..now im here starting over on new channel..now this one on shadowbanned to release limits..google service is rigged..tiktok ig ect. Got my ass off since pandemic..
honestly, they more or less destroyed my life, i worked so hard and then got a bogus copyright strike, after at my channel got shadow banned and my content was no longer being recommended
I don't have any other social media, so this is the only way I can reach out. I've also had a reaction and analysis channel that's been growing pretty quickly and have been running into failed disputes and claims for copyright material and could use some guidance. Your videos are dope, man
The problem with the system is that there are zero consequences against the claimants for filing frivolous claims, the vast majority of which are done by computer algorithms and not actual humans. There are actually legal repercussions for false claims, but because the system is the way that it is, nobody is 'big enough' to bring a proper suit against the abuse. But that is why the labels never come after reaction channels; because if they go to court over it, not only will they most likely not prevail in the court case, but it just takes one person getting the money for a good lawyer to file a counterclaim of abuse for the floodgates to open and it turns into a class action and it would absolutely cost them more than just ignoring the channel. As an aside, this isn't RUclips's fault. The law is written in such a way that platforms are pretty much screwed. They do handle it in a shitty way, but if they weren't proactive on behalf of copyright holders, they stand to lose their Section 230 protections. It's a truly messed up system that the recording industry abuses simply because they can.
Thank you for sharing that. Most of us are too afraid to dispute or submit a counter notification because no one wants to drag this and take it to the court. But I am so thankful for sharing this piece of information. Like fair use is difficult to understand but you explained it so right. Reactor or compilation channels are just promoting the content or the artist. Lastly I have a question like what about Content ID claims how do we settle that?
What worries me is that YT basically doxes you, as when you issue the counter-notification they send your personal info to whoever the claimant is, which is unsettling when the claimant is somw impersonator.
wow, i just started a reaction channel, and i have to deal with this stuff every single video. other youtubers seem to be very scared of the copyright claims and strikes, but for me, i just have to fight it every single time so i can't be scared of it. i do album reactions, so i have to fight like 10-15 claims on every video. and when they reject and i have to appeal, i have to input all my information for every single song. as of this writing, i have at least two videos now that went through the entire process all the way up to appeal, and now ALL the copyright claims are gone, like it's completely clean and i can even monetize it.
you are so right, i think either fair use should be banned or yt should protect people from strikes as they allow fair use, if any creator does not want to his content to be reused let they put it as not for reuse, and those who don't do it cant claim, i think it is a fair deal,
Great video, even if I 'm not a content creator. You are a harbinger of the copyright mess coming down to the very far reaches of Costa Rica! 😢 Not your fault! Quite the contrary! Thanks for your sound advice that might come in handy some day! However I would need some of the lingo briefly explained, like "cancel the appeal"? or "manually claim a video"? Again thanks and take care 🤗❤🇨🇷
Wow. Thank you for this video. This is just starting to happen to me but maybe it’s a bit different. I have a fitness channel and I am getting claims all the time. I get the music from the editing program I use, thinking they have rights, so I have rights to use the music. I post a video and claims come in immediately. I dispute but they are not releasing the claims (they did at first). Trying to deal with it, understand it, contact RUclips (who does not get involved) and get it resolved is a lot of work and it’s exhausting! Would love some help with this. I subscribed to you. Thank you for this! 😅
I have a guitar tutorial channel. I was hit with copywrite strike. The Eagles got me for singing a little bit of their song while I was teaching the chord changes. I've disputed it twice and done both counter claim and contact claimant...you will not get anywhere with the Eagles material ... a.k.a. their publishing company...I got my 2nd copywrite strike yesterday as I decided to do rock and roll short stories...I did a short story about Bryan Adams...waiting to hear back as I've sent a counter...over 2,000 videos and they're starting to come down on folks...what do you suggest?
I feel ya on the guilty till proven innocent crap. That seems to be the norm on a ton of things. I cant really tell my story on here due to where i work and the profession itself but i wanted to put it out there how much i understand how this feels even though some of us are just content watchers and not creators
That was my experience within a day I got 2 strikes this wk, I reached out to the organization appealing to them, this guys went on to strike my channel the second time. That spoiled my mood instantly, I went on to delete all their contents on my channel.
Hi Cliff, I have recently started a reaction channel, It has been incredible. The love & support I have received is heart warming. I am loving this journey. But I am afraid of copyright bans and strikes. All I have had so far is blocked videos? I'm not really sure what that means, but I removed them to be safe. Is there any info or advice you can offer me to help with copyright. Is there any way of knowing what video's I should avoid reacting to because they will get blocked? Or is pure hit n miss? Thank you very much for sharing this video and all of your info. That has lifted the load a lot. I feel a lot more confident about counter claiming now. Big thanks and big respect for any advice you can offer. Cheers. Paz.
Thank you Cliff i got my first strike yesterday as i upload my singing video's from smule to my channel and out of 314 songs ive sung only 1 song got removed so now im abit nervous to sing as i font know what is copyrighted or not any tips please let me know. Thank you again Cliff
I have a question, my channel is mainly for movie reviews and I sent a counter notification which they are now looking over and I was wondering if there's any chance they wouldn't forward it to the copyright owner.
@GhostofBadDad has been dealing with the issue you've had, with getting claims from fake email addresses and RUclips not responding to the scam. He's been swinging from super stressed to angry and back again. A few of us have been reassuring him that you and a few others have been facing the same impossible isht. Will link him to this if it comes up again. I'm so sorry that you've been through the wringer so frequently with all this. Is there anything we as viewers/subscribers can do to help?
Ugh! I have so many great videos blocked - all with the artists consent. Lol - now you can’t advocate for yourself for abusing their system? Some things I do not miss. Great info!
Man, I can't even build up a large enough platform where I recreate tracks, post original songs. I have some decent views on a few videos but I am still at like 160 subs. Any advice for that? I am chronically ill, and I hate to even put it this way but it is terminal. Not sure how long I will still be on this planet... I just want to leave some kind of legacy of myself behind. I have music out on every other platforms, I have like 140k plays on Spotify... but I can't get it to pop off here. Could totally use some help growing!
My brother had a channel with Ai cover songs that had copyright claims and randomly 3 became strikes and his channel got terminated… one of the strikes was for an ai voice cover of a parody of the claimants work, and the other 2 strikes were just Ai voices rapping a claimants songs in a different voice but same song… does anybody have any ideas on how to fight these to get the channel back? He had like 1300 subs and worked hard on it and his favorites and playlists was like an extension of his brain he used for reference a lot, and he feels hopeless now with his channel terminated 😢
Happens to most of us as far as I can tell. Some of the music/videos we cover will get the 24-48 hour block on random occasions, but we can cover another piece by the same author/artist/band a week later and it goes right through and doesn't get blocked lol it definitely doesn't show much of a pattern to us, we just figured it boils down to the rights holders and what they initially choose to have done with the initial auto claim if their stuff gets picked up by the auto claim bots... some of them I think have their stuff set to BLOCK ON SITE. We aren't 100% that this info is absolute but as far as we can tell that is what makes sense to us. We have seen another channel release a commentary on the exact same BRAND NEW video that we put out content on and theirs will go Live an hour after ours gets blocked for two days lol so yeah, there's that.
Thanks for the advice. I received a copyright strike because I used a small portion of "East bound and down" by Jerry Reed for a video I did on the origin of the film Smokey and the Bandit. I'm working on a video now where I want to take the theme song from one film and pair it to clips from another for comedic effect. Is that allowable under fair use?
Cliff I want to thank you for doing this. I have been talking to many other reactors about this problem. This helps more than you know.

But that is why the labels never come after reaction channels; because if they go to court over it, not only will they most likely not prevail in the court case, but it just takes one person getting the money for a good lawyer to file a counterclaim of abuse for the floodgates to open and it turns into a class action and it would absolutely cost them more than just ignoring the channel.
As an aside, this isn't RUclips's fault. The law is written in such a way that platforms are pretty much screwed. They do handle it in a shitty way, but if they weren't proactive on behalf of copyright holders, they stand to lose their Section 230 protections. It's a truly messed up system that the recording industry abuses simply because they can.
Your a legend bro this my second channel my main is currently on a appeal strike rt now thank you for your help subscribed with both channels
Thank you for sharing that. Most of us are too afraid to dispute or submit a counter notification because no one wants to drag this and take it to the court. But I am so thankful for sharing this piece of information. Like fair use is difficult to understand but you explained it so right. Reactor or compilation channels are just promoting the content or the artist. Lastly I have a question like what about Content ID claims how do we settle that?
What worries me is that YT basically doxes you, as when you issue the counter-notification they send your personal info to whoever the claimant is, which is unsettling when the claimant is somw impersonator.
INSANE 🤯 THANK YOU
wow, i just started a reaction channel, and i have to deal with this stuff every single video. other youtubers seem to be very scared of the copyright claims and strikes, but for me, i just have to fight it every single time so i can't be scared of it. i do album reactions, so i have to fight like 10-15 claims on every video. and when they reject and i have to appeal, i have to input all my information for every single song. as of this writing, i have at least two videos now that went through the entire process all the way up to appeal, and now ALL the copyright claims are gone, like it's completely clean and i can even monetize it.
you are so right, i think either fair use should be banned or yt should protect people from strikes as they allow fair use, if any creator does not want to his content to be reused let they put it as not for reuse, and those who don't do it cant claim, i think it is a fair deal,
Great video, even if I 'm not a content creator. You are a harbinger of the copyright mess coming down to the very far reaches of Costa Rica! 😢 Not your fault! Quite the contrary! Thanks for your sound advice that might come in handy some day! However I would need some of the lingo briefly explained, like "cancel the appeal"? or "manually claim a video"? Again thanks and take care 🤗❤🇨🇷
Thank you for such good information!!

Thank you bro I was Nervous clicking on it 🤣😭
Hey, am glad I found this channel. My videos were pulled down and gave me a strike because i used a photo on my thumbnail.
Wow. Thank you for this video. This is just starting to happen to me but maybe it’s a bit different. I have a fitness channel and I am getting claims all the time. I get the music from the editing program I use, thinking they have rights, so I have rights to use the music. I post a video and claims come in immediately. I dispute but they are not releasing the claims (they did at first). Trying to deal with it, understand it, contact RUclips (who does not get involved) and get it resolved is a lot of work and it’s exhausting! Would love some help with this. I subscribed to you. Thank you for this! 😅
I have a guitar tutorial channel. I was hit with copywrite strike. The Eagles got me for singing a little bit of their song while I was teaching the chord changes. I've disputed it twice and done both counter claim and contact claimant...you will not get anywhere with the Eagles material ... a.k.a. their publishing company...I got my 2nd copywrite strike yesterday as I decided to do rock and roll short stories...I did a short story about Bryan Adams...waiting to hear back as I've sent a counter...over 2,000 videos and they're starting to come down on folks...what do you suggest?
Hey man, I do tutorials as well, got strikes on several videos. I’m thinking about a solution. Wanna exchange ideas?
Thankyou!
I feel ya on the guilty till proven innocent crap. That seems to be the norm on a ton of things. I cant really tell my story on here due to where i work and the profession itself but i wanted to put it out there how much i understand how this feels even though some of us are just content watchers and not creators
oh shit brad and lex i love them i hope your advice helped i miss them..they just had a baby also
Hell yea man I subscribed
THANK YOU FOR THIS. I have 700 subs, someone with 74k subs has striked me. I am not even monetized
I got 2 strikes in one week. First time ever. I am trying to battle them as we speak
That was my experience within a day I got 2 strikes this wk, I reached out to the organization appealing to them, this guys went on to strike my channel the second time. That spoiled my mood instantly, I went on to delete all their contents on my channel.
I’m passing through this situation right now, my counter notification is already accepted and I’m waiting for 10 days
You’re golden ✅
@@CliffBeatsOfficial I’m scared hope it will went well after 10 days sir?
@@mrprofnuggets it will fall off after 15 regular days. 10 business days.
@ ok thanks
Hey bro,how did you construct your counter notification?Mine has been rejected twice by youtube
💖🙏
Hi Cliff, I have recently started a reaction channel, It has been incredible. The love & support I have received is heart warming. I am loving this journey. But I am afraid of copyright bans and strikes. All I have had so far is blocked videos? I'm not really sure what that means, but I removed them to be safe. Is there any info or advice you can offer me to help with copyright. Is there any way of knowing what video's I should avoid reacting to because they will get blocked? Or is pure hit n miss?
Thank you very much for sharing this video and all of your info. That has lifted the load a lot. I feel a lot more confident about counter claiming now. Big thanks and big respect for any advice you can offer. Cheers. Paz.
You are a great guy! ❤
Thanks for the info.

I have a question, my channel is mainly for movie reviews and I sent a counter notification which they are now looking over and I was wondering if there's any chance they wouldn't forward it to the copyright owner.
@GhostofBadDad has been dealing with the issue you've had, with getting claims from fake email addresses and RUclips not responding to the scam. He's been swinging from super stressed to angry and back again. A few of us have been reassuring him that you and a few others have been facing the same impossible isht. Will link him to this if it comes up again. I'm so sorry that you've been through the wringer so frequently with all this.
Is there anything we as viewers/subscribers can do to help?
Ugh! I have so many great videos blocked - all with the artists consent. Lol - now you can’t advocate for yourself for abusing their system? Some things I do not miss. Great info!
Man, I can't even build up a large enough platform where I recreate tracks, post original songs. I have some decent views on a few videos but I am still at like 160 subs. Any advice for that? I am chronically ill, and I hate to even put it this way but it is terminal. Not sure how long I will still be on this planet... I just want to leave some kind of legacy of myself behind. I have music out on every other platforms, I have like 140k plays on Spotify... but I can't get it to pop off here. Could totally use some help growing!
man this just happened to me today, i have two copyright strikes from bviral and storyful
My brother had a channel with Ai cover songs that had copyright claims and randomly 3 became strikes and his channel got terminated… one of the strikes was for an ai voice cover of a parody of the claimants work, and the other 2 strikes were just Ai voices rapping a claimants songs in a different voice but same song… does anybody have any ideas on how to fight these to get the channel back? He had like 1300 subs and worked hard on it and his favorites and playlists was like an extension of his brain he used for reference a lot, and he feels hopeless now with his channel terminated 😢
I’m trying to figure out why some of my reaction videos get blocked and other reactors have them up what am I doing wrong ?
Happens to most of us as far as I can tell. Some of the music/videos we cover will get the 24-48 hour block on random occasions, but we can cover another piece by the same author/artist/band a week later and it goes right through and doesn't get blocked lol it definitely doesn't show much of a pattern to us, we just figured it boils down to the rights holders and what they initially choose to have done with the initial auto claim if their stuff gets picked up by the auto claim bots... some of them I think have their stuff set to BLOCK ON SITE. We aren't 100% that this info is absolute but as far as we can tell that is what makes sense to us. We have seen another channel release a commentary on the exact same BRAND NEW video that we put out content on and theirs will go Live an hour after ours gets blocked for two days lol so yeah, there's that.
Thanks for the advice. I received a copyright strike because I used a small portion of "East bound and down" by Jerry Reed for a video I did on the origin of the film Smokey and the Bandit.
I'm working on a video now where I want to take the theme song from one film and pair it to clips from another for comedic effect. Is that allowable under fair use?
How do I fight a copyright strike? I’ve just had my first one!! Please help!
