  • According to the video description, the fake Viacom employee said VIACOM VS. YOU = BOYCOTT is Viacom-owned game material.

    Wow.

  • Ok so they can show nudity on crackle movies but you can't upload a picture of a hot half naked girl wow ok youtube

  • yeah... Viacom International Inc banned me from almost ALL my videos all at once... like wtf how do they OWN everything? my videos started getting big and had millions of views.. now they just can say oh hey your video is big, lets delete it...

  • What IS WMG? I know about Viacom now, but i now not see viacom anymore, but in descriptions like lyrics: "ALL RIGHTS GO TO WMG! I WAS JUST LEARNING LYRICS", now i see comments all about WMG, what is it?

  • NO GOOD REASON: I recently had a video removed for a remix track where the song parts were offered to the public for mixing. I was also asked to remove from my Soundcloud site and "All other sites" while other remixes by other artist using the same content are still posted. I feel I was singled out for "No Good Reason"!

  • Youtube is ruining my channel.Most of my videos are spiritual,about Yeshua or Jesus.And about zionest Jews.In the last 2 months they have taken most of the best channels I have subscribed to.Most of my favorites and playlists are blank.I am about to close my channel because it is impossible to keep honest information,it would be eaiser if I had half nude girls,they would never take those channels off.Since I seek the truth tht seems to be a crime on youtube.

  • Ooops! I just sent a nasty email to Viacom. This video was too late.

  • what is viacom

  • @TitchyHD Alright, Viacom is a entertaiment company than owns some TV channels like MTV and Nick, also they own some movie studios and some game companies. That´s Viacom dude.

  • how much did viacom paid u>?

  • Down with VIACOM,Up with freedom.

  • The only reason youtube took it down because of viacom is being jerks. Pluse viacom uploaded some of those coprighted videos. Viacom made alot of false copright claims. YOU dont see the bigger picture.

  • @Warmsprite1w P.S. Viacom put up videos of independent content creators. One music vieo called Flickr and VIACOM Put it up on spike.com with preroles and ads.

    Acording to the creative commons licence this is against the law. Let me quote vlogbrothers... "wheres jhonaton colont's 37 cents"

  • chuggaaconroy got suspended because of false DCMA claims... but hes back. But i do agree with you completely, I hate youtubes DCMA claim system...

  • here I'm going to speak

    "We are here! What are we? We are a community, a brethren, a force to be reckoned with. We are the youtube community. We are one of the strongest social powers on the internet, way higher than any viacom group. We stand above most other groups. We live, we die, we stand. Most importantly is that we stand for what we think is right and what is true. Not for what we think is incorrect. We are the community. We're half of youtube. We, are the community

  • what the F*** is up with WMG

  • One thing I'd like to ask is what are you planning to do with just having people watch the video and favorite/rate/comment on it? I'm asking this because I know how to gain support of other users. However the question still remains. "How is the support going to be used?"

    Think of it like this metaphor / rhetorical...... What good is an army without weapons?

  • huh wow but therealweeklynews what about wmg

  • @nik10096 This video is almost two years old. WMG was not an issue back then.

  • @therealweeklynews Did you ever make a video on WMG?

  • @therealweeklynews sounds like WMG is the new Viacom nowadays. Or, is it still YouTube just screwing around with us again?

  • @therealweeklynews they are now...

  • @therealweeklynews do u think if they find the guy how did this , he/her wil be in huge trouble , correct ? & they will get sent to prison for life , without parroal ?

  • and in the end youtube won

  • I think the problem with youtube is there is no large competitor equal to it. There's no competition to force youtube to change the way it tackles videos that appear to be copyrighted and thus no incentive to change. Why investigate your video when they can avoid a lawsuit from a major media company? They know there isnt another website like youtube so people are less likely to stop using it. There simply doing the easiest thing.

  • Hey, there are definitely people who appreciate any effort to fight for free speech, TRN. ;)

  • venting frustrations are good and doing nothing about them is ok....if you have the power to do something about it is AWESOME. if you have power to change something that is flawed or wrong more power to you and u should be obligated to prevent problems of the sort from ever happening again, this man is one of those ppl who is trying to prevent restrictions thru a broken system TWO THUMBS UP

  • wow, so ANYONE can take down vids? That's awesome.... *bursts in evil laughter*

  • YouTube is censorship heaven. They're the biggest in the game and thus, they know they can bully people. I hope Viacom sues the shit out of them. Then I hope someone gets that guy his $13,000 dollars (or 37) from Viacom.

  • The best part is that any "famous" youtuber cannot get their videos deleted.

  • @iTzEvrywhere They Could YouTube Deleted 3 ShaneDawsonTV Videos

  • @superemmanuel4 while he was "famous"?

  • You are so very right! Especially with all the Madonna channels, other users make false copyright claims to others uploading other Madonna videos and it comes down to one thing! COMPETITION! people want to have the most popular channel. i keep in close contact youtube and when someone tries to take me down, which has happened to me many of times. If you truly believe in what you do, send me a PM, and i will give you email addresses to contact youtube. Legitimate people only please.

  • i just want to say *FUCK VIACOM* there... ^^

  • This issue has become public once again! One of YouTube's partners, JeepersMedia, is doing a short video series on Viacom's actions against YouTube. Check out his channel for the latest news regarding this issue. NOTE: Because of the channel's partner status, some videos may exceed 10 minutes in length.

  • yahoo does that!

  • Let's fix the system! Support! HULU (tube) needs to learn what we feel.

  • From the recent news I've heard regarding Viacom and YouTube, I'm willing to bet Viacom really did take the video down.

  • SUE VIACOM

  • Support

  • Maybe why viacom is a piece of crap is becuz a reatard old fart that has a girlfriend that's 40 yr's younger than him is taking control!

  • Fuck Viacom! Fuck Viacom! Fuck Viacom! Fuck Viacom! Fuck Viacom!Fuck Viacom!Fuck Viacom!Fuck Viacom!Fuck Viacom!Fuck Viacom!Fuck Viacom!Fuck Viacom! Fuck Viacom! Fuck Viacom! Fuck Viacom!

    Showing some support! ^^

  • There is so much wrong with what Viacom is doing. It just makes me sick

  • F.U.C.K viacom. This is the gayest thing that I have ever her of. THEY HAVE NO RIGHTS TO DO THIS!

  • i swear if viacom comes after me my freinds or family that have a youtube account i wint touch a single product of viacom with a 50 foot pole how you like me now viacom you just tight in the bridges they need to think before they act

  • ugh. this stuff is horrible. im so sick of this political shit. i need some comedic relief, and sleep. that was a little off topic...

  • You didn't even say "um.."

  • let's get strong through the internet, but, man, when u do a video, please finish it, don't leave me hanging for more man.

  • Viacom, F--- YOU.

  • True... Let's stop this.

  • OMG.

  • I see?

  • Apparently the guys who are in charge of YouTube right now are lawyers who graduated too early.

  • Youtube is turning into a communist website! KEEP THE YOU IN YOUTUBE!

  • free speech, yet we cant vote on comments?

  • @eArtrash

    The comment voting is only meant to be used for spammers and insulting comments but has gotten used more as a way to show someone how much they don't like someone else's own opinion by thumbing them down.

  • Help Support YouTube

  • I got one simple question but it is more likely impossible to answer...

    Why are they doing this to us?

    My best answer...

    Viacom and WMG were losing money because people on youtube were posting music and people just watch that instead of buying it and WMG/Viacom were running out of business so they decided to file a million dollar lawsuit on youtube and google so now WMG/Viacom Now owns youtube

    Im not sure about it but thats my best answer

  • Heres my answer there just damn greedy.

  • * * * * *

  • they will not let me post second comment i will post it in your home page of via email. Thanks for what you are doing.

  • Dear friend this is sad that they can shut me down any time i lost many friends and subscribers that are good people but now they are all gone their accounts are finished...I wonder who i have almost 50% of the people white out...also every time if they miss my video because of the new topic and not related with Ron Paul after they let the normal hits generate they catch good activity and stop it !

  • Keep the You in Youtube!

  • I'm willing to bet that that email really was from Viacom, and Youtube was somehow colluding with them to conceal the true source of the email.

    The reason people don't wanna do anything about it is that they don't know what the eff to do. Even if everyone on the internet comes together and sees this video, if they do not work together and no one cares enough, nothing will happen.

    And I agree that the system is completely broken.

  • Stuff like this really sends shivers down my spine,as if it was a conspiricy theory.VERY scary.

  • It kind if makes me wonder whether the letter of complaint was sent by an angry artist who is also pro-Viacom. Though I'm quite impress that they come up with such authenticity in their letter.

  • This is not America, and as long as this fascist company exists we are not living in a free society.

  • support

  • fucking support!

  • Blame:

    Hulu

    Disney

    Wmg

  • super RIGHT

    5 man,

    5 stars

    *****

  • I support you man. 5 stars.

  • support

  • notice all of this is after we found rokefellers adress trust me the government is watching everyone

  • Nope, they aren't, but they are trying.

  • the thumds up & down was removed so you cant tell how quick people agree with you good call

  • i told you yougoogle sucks

  • It is just me or has the "Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down" system next to the comments been taken from YouTube?

  • When you upload a video, you have the option to allow or disable rating comments. The author of this video probably decided that peoples opinions on this shouldn't be rated as good or bad.

  • hello??????

    this is the internet, the biggest place for free speech!!!!

    where funny stuff, pr0n and flash games exists!

  • you r soo right

  • it's worrying how easily it can happen.

    Do you know who really did it yet?

  • no one cares until it happens to them

  • supported

  • atleast 20 of my videos have been disabled by viacom

  • Google and Viacom fucked up YouTube

  • I post up songs and lyrics so of course me video's are always freaking flagged. I mean i only do this so people can see my drawing vid's and to get my name out. I am not fred, i only have 16 subscribers so am i really a threat. My highest vid has 24 thousand views or something like that. They just took down my second highest video out of nowhere and now as soon as i post a vid it's at the risk of never being seen with sound. All that work for nothing!

  • This has to be stopped its disgusting that youtube would even take this seriously

  • support

  • support

  • dude, your so right it's scary. i don't know anyone who ever got banned, but i know people who got suspended for no known reason... 0_0

  • I think a large Buzz Word in the e-mail that they glanced at and just overlooked was the sentence "I am an authorized representative of the Viacom International Inc.". I think at this point they would have known that this was an obvious fake and just deleted the message right there and then.

  • GO! Someone has to tell them!

    I cant stand it when someone tells me I am NOT allowed to say what I want to.

    FREE SPEECH!

    DUE PROCESS!

    It is this right, that allows us to have so many others.

    What good is being able to have what you want, if you cant say that you want it.

    Cutting off the nose to spite the face.

  • world hunger, genocide, womans rights NOTHING COMPARED TO FUCKING YOUTUBE VIDEOS NOTHING MAN THIS SI THE NEWS THAT MATTERS NOT THOSE THINGS

  • Listen child, If you dont get why freedom of speech is so important then I cant help you. The reason why freedom of speech is the most important is so we can talk about world hunger, genocide and womans rights. You are a simple minded angry child. Grow up and learn something.

  • Subbed

  • @therealweeklynews you have put the hammer down i understand the anger and that the recent vids have been focused on more personal issues but yes they may be able to be applied to everything that has to be associated with real life and most ppl do not use their heads or logic two thumbs up ....for real news real issues whether personal or international..good job full support on my behalf i love your methodology

  • @Zipo214 Thanks for the good words and support.

  • @therealweeklynews I think you are really an awesome person for being able to stand up to Viacom like that. Most of us just sit here and do nothing but try to mess up their wikipedia page. WMG is now becoming an even bigger issue. If you even try to post a song with a video and give all rights to WMG in the video and description, they won't even bother to look at it. The second they hear their song, they'll remove it. This is a problem.

  • @therealweeklynews You do understand that Freedom of Speech is only to meat allow you the right to speak out against your government, right?

  • @circutracer150 Actually I do understand this. It is nice to see that other people do too. You also need to know that youtube touts its business as being for free speech so they need to be exposed as the liars they are. Watch my hulu tube video. I go into detail how my videos have been censored twice and they have done nothing about it. Also I have more detailed info on my blog. A link to my blog is on my youtube channel page.

  • @therealweeklynews Well then, as a company touting that you can post whatever you whenever you want, YouTube should be held completely responsible for this fiasco with Viacom.

    However, the bigger issue here seems to be getting ignored. How is all this going to affect the YouTube we know and love? Is it going to be taken down all together at some point?!

    And of course, if this is to be the case, how can we stop that from happening?

  • afew things: 1) we're in a first world country, supporting alot of third world countries can make it worse and womans rights are getting alot better. 2)genocide is old news, we're no longer commiting it. 3) this is the internet, who care?

  • @flowingsolder THE FREAKING NEWS NEVER COVERS IMPORTANT STUFF! ALL THAT THEY TELL YOU ABOUT IS DISASTERS, EPIDEMICS AND CELEBRITY DIVORCES!

  • my opinion about this maybe its because its harming there company? IDFK? or something about conspiracy

  • My thoughts exactly!

  • I agree with you ... completely!

  • they took down half the vids on one of my playlists!!

  • thanks for the video. i completely agree with you

  • Ok. THis is pissing me off. I clearly said " I DO NOT OWN REN AND STIMPY"! and they still DELETED MY VIDEO!!! IAM FORMING A CAMPAIGN TO FIGHT VIACOM! DO NOT WATCH ANY VIACOM OWNED CHANNELS!

  • informative, thanks

  • Viacom and Youtube deserves to be blamed. First, Youtube's crappy change, then Viacom's false copyright claim.

  • it's clearly messed up!

    i had an account "DarkSoul816" i had about 11 videos, non copyrighted, then one day when i signed inm after 1 minute my account was suspended and it said that i had a copyrighted video, when all i did was create my own videos, YouTube is removing videos and accounts for no reason, because they think it's just for fun, when alot of youtubers already left youtube because of this.

  • both should be blamed

  • youtube should really check the email before they take down a video

  • GO TO HELL VIACOM!!!

  • hmm my channel got disabled 3 days ago, I uploaded so many music videos to promote the artists, and one video hit over 1,000,000+ views and I got my account disabled..

    What really pisses me off, is when you try to contact them, they don't listen to you, they don't want anything to do with you. So for the whole "Your freedom of speech" thing on youtube...it's bullshit.

  • we should do something about it.if this bullsh*** continues then what will happen

    .i hate youtube after this i mean these copyright system and wmg,umg,riaaa and every other companies should never be allowed here.

  • support

  • supported

  • Actually I think this is all a set-up plan!

    Google, being another NWO puppet, has been 'used' to buy YouTube to get rid of all those people that freely speak their mind on this site.

    The demagogues at Google are a threat to our freedom of speech and opinion!

    :)))

  • Supported.

  • my friend said he was goimg to flag charlie the unicorn 3 because he thought bleh bleh bleh was copyright of him but he didnt at first i thought what the f*** was wrong with him

  • Damn, man.

    Youz raizin some hell brotha'.

    Keep it real.

  • therealweeklynews, all your videos are about you, videos, YouTube and the government. Isn't anything else newsworthy? It's like you make videos about videos. I hope this isn't your only channel, and that somewhere else you're being more than a digital Don Quixote--or Chicken Licken.

  • What a weak troll you are. These concepts must be to large for your small mind. Also, Chicken licken? What the hell is that? I am pretty sure after reading this comment that you are to thick headed to even rationalize with. All you do is nit pick and miss even the most basic premise of the video itself. Why dont you watch my video called favorites. That will tell you how this channel works as well as reading my channel description. That is what it is there for.

  • Wow your the REAL face of ignorance.

  • Anon?

  • I think we should all pay a fee of .20 a video to ensure our rights, that way you tube can employee enough people to visually check each claim as soon as their made. Google is going to lose 470million dollars on youtube this year, are you going to work for free for you tube, yourself? Maybe a better solution would be organizing a group of youtubers that are informed and willing to do such volunteer work. Now that would be real progress.

  • so u say that i can email youtube to close this vid and theil close it ? what a shame then >(

  • Some asshole... Flagged a video of mine. all it was was talking about the "Wagner virus" and it said the source of the script. and to look in the description. only 9 seconds. In the description i had a disclaimer. i state who the code belongs to i state the source. i was suspended for no fucking reason fuck Flaggers. and i never got the video back.

  • yeah MAYBE

    shit all youtube wants is money. its like the Washington Global in State of Play

  • Dude, you opened my eyes.

  • yep

  • Agree

  • Support

  • viacom and youtube are the same....shit

  • I am in the mood to make a video like this now!

  • this is............WAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!

  • Stock up on ammo and grab your sidearm, its about to get a lil hairy...*M16 Boltpull*

  • wmg is just as bad

  • support

  • agree

  • agreed

  • check

  • this has been around for VERY long.. VERY VERY VERY long and VERY VERY VERY much used, I've seen it a LOT, one guy doesn't like a video, so he just puts a copyright claim like that, even if it doesn't break ANY copyright

  • nice

  • i took 5 h to make a video about css and cod4 with no extra music than what it came with the game (game sound ) and then : viacom copyright , omg

  • who is viacom

  • Is Youtube listening to these.. I wonder...

  • Everybody needs to stand up to them. They think the can walk all over us but there business will fail. They have no right looking through our private browsing history.

  • So true... if you have a piece of music... in your videos...we really thought the person who wrote the song..watched our video's.... wtf its not them its ..... they other's.

  • I agree, YT has not done a good job at all when it comes to warranted flagging and video removal. Keep it up!
