The Jimquisition: Where's The Fair Use?
The Jimquisition joins the throng of YouTube content makers asking a very simple question - where's the fair use?
YouTube has been going into takedown overdrive this year, and there's a palpable fear among video makers as they wonder who's next.
It's gotten beyond ridiculous.

So this may be a bit out there, but maybe youtube content creators could band together and form something like a union? Or invest in a group of lawyers? I know the for a lot of people in the Music industry (i.e., musicians who don't have other jobs but aren't big super stars) have organizations that helps their members (people like the previously mentioned musicians) get health care and legal help. I know this is poorly worded, but maybe if enough content creators got together to form an organization like that, it could help combat these types of ridiculous and arbitrary road blocks.
How many times have you danced in the mirror to that song Jim... After that I'd guess at least 6-7 times. Ps. Awesome
Is Youtube really the only/best game in town today for what most creator's do?
Given your previous praise of the changes happening at YouTube, I was wondering when your address this. I wonder what made them backslide so hard, as it seemed so hopeful not too long ago...
Excellent song cover :-D
Thanks Very Much Lance :-D
So what happens if two (or more!) companies feel they have equal claim? Some kind of thunder dome? Do they repeatedly keep content-id-ing each other? Is it simply the first one across the gate wins? My thinking is- wouldn't this suggest the whole system is simply flawed?
I had Monday and Tuesday off this week and thought it was Monday again when I saw this. Thanks for confusing me, Jim. :P Meanwhile, #fucknintendo
This is your best video so far Jim, congrats for an amazing work. This is a shameful and I hope You Tubs steps up. Maybe we should all go to Vimeo??? Any other platform available?
I am liking the 1990s British police procedural theme song.
