      Good. It’s trash content. Remove all AI content as well. Creativity is for the humans. Make the bots do data entry.

      This has far more implications then reaction content. This would effectively be the end of fair use if DMCA technological circumvention claims can override fair use. It means anything that protected by a technological copying prevention can’t be copied even for the purposes of fair use.

      This is not a good thing and would be ground breaking in a bad way, expanding the scope and scale of DMCA and ending lots of fair use examples of content.

      Meanwhile, AI companies continue to rip and illegally download the Internet wholesale, technology prevention or not.

      I personally love reaction videos i love re-experiencing something i love again for the first *time but through someone else’s first time reaction to it. However I’ve seen some reaction channels ripping whole movies and reacting to the whole thing into full. Might as well just illegally distribute the movie at that point.

      I mean if that is what it takes to end the cheap videos assmongold makes, i’ll take it.

      “I’m a 37 year old athlete who has attended endless sporting events and here’s my reaction to hearing Queen – We Will Rock You for the first time ever”

      I block any channel that YT recommends to me that’s full of reaction videos.

      This would hurt review channels and many other channels that use clips for fair use purposes. For reaction vids I have split feelings. There are some fun reactors, especially in music like Drumroll Tony or Tim the music coach ect; they add tons of in depth reactions and breakdowns of what they’re watching and listening too.

      Or even films/tv shows there are fun reactors like microwave society, sorta stupid, Not so average fan girl, corridor crew, wired having professionals react to their profession in films and more. Tons of funny or insightful reactions and breakdowns which are really fun to watch.

      At the same time you have complete nothing reactors, who just don’t say anything and just make faces at they’re webcam, and repeat what was said back at um like Sniperwolf and that ilk of reactors. Regardless of how they bring the medium down so hard, the way this is worded is way more negative then positive for Youtube in general.

      For those who refuse to click into the article and even read the top 4 lines: these potential lawsuits are based on a technicality because of *how* they were ripped. Meaning 3rd party ripping software specifically. Screen recording is supposedly *not* considered 3rd party screen ripping software

      I guess this is time for a guilty confession that if I’ve started something late or unpopular and there’s no one to really talk about it with I’ll go watch reactions.

      Personally, I like react videos. At least some of them, where the user is making in depth commentary on either filmmaking or music and so on. There are not a lot out there, but the ones that do are interesting. The ones that are a tiny little head in the corner of a video that say nothing other than the odd monosyllabic grunt, but still rake in the money from ads somehow are the ones that I block. Also, why not just take away the ad revenue? Then the user may stop posting them perhaps if it’s not worth their time.

      I always feel like it’s a waste of time to watch a video of somebody reacting to another reaction video.

    18. aliamokeee on

      If we remove reaction videos, does that mean that people can no longer share *any* clip or react to *anything*?

      I get that nobody likes the long ass, sitting and insulting while the original video plays. But I just dont watch it.

      There are creators who use clips to critique and analyze. Would this affect them too?

    19. dewman45 on

      While there are some good react/review channels, I’m tired of these *insert title* REACTS TO *THING* channels.

      But Google can use stolen data in its LLMs and that’s fine. I think not. Screw these monopolies

    22. josgriffin on

      I don’t see what these distributors gain by taking down reaction videos. I watch reaction videos all the time but I only do so if I have already seen the original video myself.

      I understand taking someone else’s content but I kinda think if you are watching a reaction streamers who adds nothing to the video they are watching, its an issue with that streamer, not all reaction streamers as a whole.

      Can we make the videos with one motherfucker smugly pointing at another video over their shoulder illegal?

      please?

    25. OreoSpeedwaggon on

      Commentary, criticism, and analysis of films and TV shows are transformative works covered under the fair use clause of US Copyright law (17 USC §107), and the method of ripping material from one medium for placement in an entirely different video should be completely irrelevant. I don’t care what any court says. I will die on this hill.

      So difficult to prove how access was obtained. And if this is Google is going to proceed, then YouTubers will just screen record relevant sections and move on from this. The only thing the download file accomplishes is higher quality and time saved during editing.

      Classic. A right-wing First Amendment guy wants rights until someone wants to criticize him. The jokes really do write themselves lately.

    29. SleepyBoy- on

      Could? They should have long ago, like years ago. Way too many of them have just a face of a guy pasted on, without any commentary or even reaction. It’s the go-to way people steal content from each other.
