Kiwi Farms

You know what this is. Every time a Youtuber whines about the e-career they make by using someone else's copyrighted content, a Kiwi gets his stubs replaced with real wings.


You hear a lot about how much it regrets the Youtube author to announce that their vidya playthroughs were striked for copyright infringement and even though they get to keep their video up, which is a privilege most people do not get when this happens anywhere else on the internet, they will take to the podium cry about it to their subscribers as if they could do anything about it. They'll usually save face by telling their fans that they don't want them to take action on the author's part just to get them to do that very thing by way of reverse psychology.

They'll front that they're totally, completely neutral about everything in an attempt to vainly veil their actual intentions. But this is just the appetizer my lovelies.


This is the video that gave me the idea to make this thread. How dare a vidya company rip down an illegally distributed copy of their game. How dare they protect their IPs, it's as much ours as it is theirs. We should retaliate by pirating all their games because they wouldn't let us pirate their games.


And finally the crème de la crème of this e-whining, the Nostalgia Critic's very own "where's the fair use?" where he complains that he can't just stream the entirety of a movie for profit on the most mainstream website on the entirety of the internet and dodge consequences by splicing in his reactions.

Prior to this Doug enjoyed a cushy career that went unchallenged in reviewing movies on Blip, but one day, he reviewed the room and the owners of the movie retaliated. When that happened, Doug resorted to doing the following.


As you can imagine, screeing his entitlement on Youtube probably wouldn't draw much sympathy in the way it did for him on Blip.


Of course, as much as I don't think it belongs here, it'll end up here anyway. Youtube's limited state program which is not designed to protect the rights of copyright holders but to punish wrong thinking proles.
