@abrick1house77 They had a design patent because that was their identifying characteristic. There is a big difference between Design patents and Standard Technical patents. Do your homework a bit more and study the two different types of patents that are issued in the US. And agreed most patents are stupid to begin with and are controlled by corporate bullies that drive small business out.
@ cutlerylover: That's factually incorrect. If Roadsideimports had said on his video, "I'm giving this content to Google," THEN they would own it. If he didn't, then he retains copyright in the content he created, Google only have a licence to use it.
since your not a partner you dont own your content, neither does benchmade...actually google/youtube own the content, once you become a partner then you own your own material you post...the problem with this issue is benchmade cant prove they own the video you produced, BUT since gogole gets paid from them via ads youtube rejected your video since benchmade claimed they own it...the bigger guys wins in this case, its not right or fair to you, Im just trying to explain it...
On a side note, good luck with the long on going battle againt benchmade but you wont win...you just cant afford it, period, but at least your letting your voice be heard...thats the american way!
That is not what Sal said, he basically dropped everything because he didn't want to spend the money to litigate the problem. Can't go p against someone who has more money than you. Lets get real this is America, he who has the most money wins even if you have to buy the win. You don't want to spend thousands to get hundreds, that makes no sense.
It has been done, I emailed them twice already and I have filed Better Business Bureau Cases and am contacting the ACLU for a classaction lawsuit against them.
If there was anyone else who had comments on my videos about this your 1st Amendment rights were also violated and you can join in on a class action lawsuit.
I need support from others because once there are multiple complaints to the ACLU about this it will help the cause.
Id be willing to repost videos on this account make others whatever help you need. I use a Colt firefighter rescue knife and will never buy a Benchmade product. It's a shame America is coming down to large corporations attacking people and trying to silence them so they wont get a bad reputation. I use the share option and post these on Facebook. I hope all I can do to help will be used and will help you. Everyone watching these videos should show the same anger towards Benchmade
Son of a bitch, they are cry-baby assholes. Those dirty assholes, that's fascism. Straight up, they are punishing you for thinking differently from them. That is fascism. Benchmade are a bunch of fascist assholes.
There can not be a copy right on a opening hole in the blade because it can not be pattented

How do they have copyrights to my voice, my video, my audio, my creation, and my thoughts?
Tell me if they own the copyrights to my brain?
They simply lied about copyrights to YouTube to get the videos removed, low scumbag tactic.
