If you have your own stories to tell about how you beat false DMCAs without compromising your privacy, please let me know. Post a video response. I plan to put them all together on CensorTubeDOTEu as a repository of ideas.

My own idea is to build a YouTube Network of Trust, people who will help the vulnerable amongst us to fight this abuse.

If you have had enough of DMCA abuse and you want to DO something about it.
If you have already been the target of DMCA abuse and your docs have already been dropped, you have nothing more to lose. Why not help prevent it happening to others?
If you know someone OUTSIDE youtube who is willing to help, a police officer, teacher, professor, rabbi, priest, anybody in a position of authority, a free speech activist, journalists, anyone who values freedom of speech, make them aware of what is going on on YouTube and ask for their help.

But if you're looking for help from the Network, remember you are asking someone to take a risk for your sake. Don't be offended if they ask you to show them your video so they can judge for themselves whether you are right that your vid is NOT in breach of the DMCA. And accept that if they consider the risk to be too high they may not be able to help. They're helping out of their own volition, but they can't be expected to take unacceptable risks for you.

Contact me if you want to help out.

  • I just viewed this video and while I realize I am coming a little late to this issue, I would like to volunteer my services. There have been too many videos from channels that I enjoy watching that have had false DCMA claims filed against them simply because the person disagreed with what they were saying. This has got to stop. If you don't agree with what the person has to say, then feel free to comment on the video or simply avoid watching the video completely

  • @mrquiet2009 Thanks. You WILL get your docs dropped - just look at what happened to FelidaTheGeek

  • Logic -and- courage. You ask for logic -and- courage. Jeez. SIGH! oooooh alllllright.

  • @LokiFreign :-)

  • This is a brilliant idea. How do I take part?

  • @Katfellow Whatever way you like. I'll add you to the list anyway, so that's a start, but if you see someone being DMCAed and you want to help, just contact them and tell them you want to help them. If necessary point them to this vid for clarification.

  • @rozeboosje I'm willing to do that. If that's what it takes to stop this nonsense.

  • mirrored and favorited

  • @TogetherForPeace Wow! That is excellent news.

  • @rozeboosje YouTube accepted the po box which I wasn't sure about either since the counter-notification form says 'street address.'
