The Jimquisition 21: Skate Man Intense Rescue - A Steam Spite Story
🕑 Added 2015-04-06 12:59:26 +0000 UTC Another developer (if we stretch the meaning of the word) initiates a copyright takedown strike, then doubles down on stupid with an astounding confession of spite. If there was any doubt that these takedowns came from a place other than petty attempted vengeance, let the story of Digpex Games put it to bed. Wow, these people.

I thank God after every Jimquisition.
Frickin' awesome Jim :D
we'll never know what could have been. do game devs ever just coherently berate you and leave it at that?
Glorious!
hahaha this is one of the reasons I support you. Fucking glorious.
My liege....

I feel like "shots fired" doesn't really cover this video. lol
I know that you can't sue YouTube/Google, but isn't it still possible to sue the developer for loss of potential revenue? I mean, you can show (based upon average revenue from similar videos) that your videos make a certain amount of money within their first 2 weeks of release. You can show that the developer flagrantly abused the YouTube copyright strike system to get your video taken down. So I would assume that you can make a claim that the dev caused deliberate financial loss and that they should be liable for compensating you.Maybe if a precedent is set in case law, it may put a stop to the abuse of the YouTube copyright strike system. Just a thought.

This silly garbage is probably going to continue to happen until some cranky studio attempts to fuck with a channel big enough to have lawyers, and the subsequent litigation involves the possibility of youtube being financially responsibly for unfounded copyright claims that impact the channels revenue. Until it is a risk to cost youtube money, I don't see them acting on it.
Best Jimquisition yet! All Hail King Jim.
