A couple of things that I didn’t get around to since I wrote the script for this up in fifteen minutes on Notepad:
First off, please do not attack or threaten XiaoDao for this. You do not own the copyright to the video, you as a viewer do not possess that much power. Nic is the only one who can actually do something about it, so if you do do something, do something to support Nic. Any sort of threat that you level against XiaoDao will only serve to make you look like a fucking idiot and give his victim angle more leverage.
Secondly, do not go over to XiaoDao’s channel and give him any more views on “his” video. Negative attention is still attention--something that JayStation learned--and there might be a point where he’ll turn around and say “well, thanks for the views”.
Third, I never mentioned how XiaoDao also has a point about how Lillia is mostly human and Yuumi’s just a cat, nor did I mention how in the intro of his video he talks about iconic champions that are fundamental to the design of League of Legends, which include Ahri and Teemo. If he wasn’t plagiarising Nic’s video, surely he would have chosen other champions or aspects to talk about? Heck, even the delivery of those lines between Nic and XiaoDao is somewhat similar.
Point number three and a half, he claims in the DM he sent to Nic that they’re both reporting on news and that this isn’t Nic’s “secret formula”. If it was news with one’s own original twist, Nic’s clips wouldn’t have been in the original video and the points made in the newer one wouldn’t have been as eerily similar. I’m personally not one to believe in coincidence here.
Fourth, he claims that his edits and jokes are different from Nic’s and that his different jokes are what makes his video transformative enough to not be struck with a copyright claim. He even goes as far as to say that he spent three days editing the video, as if the time he spent making Nic’s video but his own slight variation should be sympathized with. This is a commonly regarded myth about copyright that I do talk about but I’m repeating myself here as well because holy shit is it frustrating to run into this mentality this frequently on RUclips.
Fifth, translating a video does not automatically make it transcend copyright. Copyright is meant to be in place to protect a creator’s original content and only through transformative uses (ie. telling a different narrative than the source material, like using clips from a movie to critique it or run an educational course on its filmmaking) is it ever okay to use those clips. Translating it is just telling the same story, but in a different language.
Sixth, I recognise that I made this video out of a want to defend Nic and that it was mostly driven by spite for such disgusting behaviour. I want to make it clear to anyone who might take this criticism as offensive that I am not here to insult XiaoDao. I am here to pick apart the deception and raise awareness for this horrible situation.
I do call XiaoDao a thief and a manipulator, which are both very harsh terms to use, but if someone physically stole something from a store or was attempting to use psychological warfare to convince someone else of their wrongdoing, we wouldn’t call them anything less. It’s not an insult if it’s been made overtly clear that it’s the truth.
XiaoDao stole clips from Nic’s video and plagiarised it to make it look like his own. When he was caught, he manipulated his audience by playing victim to them, he attempted to manipulate Nic by saying that he should feel bad for picking on a fellow small RUclipsr, and he attempted to manipulate the rest of us by patting us on the head and saying that “it’s all good now because I’ve linked Nic’s video too.”
Him removing the original video is enough of an admission of guilt for me, but every word that this guy says at this point paints its own narrative.
This video is meant to be a civilised rant where I can hopefully be an example of how you can argue with people on the internet without it devolving into a screaming match. If I’ve done that today, then I’ve done my part successfully.
"First, you're legally wrong. Second, you're morally wrong."
Possibly the most egregious offence is how the videos are structured near identically.
I'm also impressed by how easily you're able to completely dissect all of the arguments too, like wow.
This was actually really concise and super well put together, not that that's surprising. Nice job Kai!
2:29 was you basically saying: "You can't sue me but nice try"
Its a smart move to put the "do not harass this person" at the beginning of the video bcs they can always say "oh u only put it in the description of the video, do u even know how many people even read the description" Overall very nice
I also put it as the first point in my pinned comment and mentioned it again towards the end of the video. If anyone does do something, they're either deaf or illiterate. Thanks, Kazi :)
Almost unsubscribbed because I didn’t realize this was foxlikespancakes
It is! Channel's just undergone some renovations in the last year
