I Need Help!
Hello! I hope you all are looking forward to your upcoming weekend π I don't have many plans other than gaming, but that sounds like a good one to me!
I would absolutely love some help, if I may ask. I've been trying to deal with this myself for a while but nothing has happened. Someone has been re-uploading my reaction videos to YouTube, with no changes other than sometimes it being sped up. I've reported the channel multiple times, but maybe because the reports only come from one person (me), they get ignored.
If a few of you would be able to please report the channel as well, maybe we'd have more luck! I've usually been using the spam or impersonation option.
The channel is here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaBDM2xibmqlzPYnskJvYFQ
Thank you SO MUCH ππ

Reported for impersonating you. As Jerry the King Lawler once said, Imitation is the sincerest form of theft.
Also reported! Hope it gets resolved quick.
Done!! Let's hope it gets recognised by and removed by YouTube.
Seems pretty unsuccessful, I don't think you should be calling attention/traffic to it
As holder of the copyright to your reactions, don't you have the direct possibility to claim it? Or is this already the reporting you refer to? Sorry, if the question is redundant, I don't have any experience with that and I am not sure on the right vocabulary.
And done btw π
What... And indeed... The fck? Why on earth would they do that?
Done seemsto be a thing on youtube these days

Reported. Will do all I can to make sure they get shut down Jules!
Done. What a weird thing to do

Reported the channel for impersonation. Hope that helps :)
Okay **reports for impersonation**
I've added my report. You work hard on your videos! I hope this gets sorted out soon.

I recently found another channel (Reuploading another reactor Cinema with Steph I think it was) and I got the fake one removed by pushing a bunch of reports to it with links to the original uploader
They didn't even bother changing some of the titles, you can see that they used 9convert.com to download your videos. I've reported the channel for you!
How do you report? I tried and it only gave me the option to "hide this user".
If you click on their About section there should be an option to report, or you can report it via the video itself π
Reported. It might not help but have you considered adding a watermark to your videos?
I've started adding them to my Doctor Who videos! I'm still trying to figure out a watermark thing that I like π I guess protecting the videos is more important than it looking pretty though hahaha
Done. Enjoy your weekend of gaming :D

Reported The content you have taken time out of your day to create and edit shouldn't be used without your permission
Thank you, Dave! I don't mind being used in reaction compilations and the like as they usually have my name there or in the description. But to straight up upload the same video is not okay π§
done! I hope this gets resolved :)

How do we know YOU'RE not the impersonator? π Seriously though, this really sucks! Sorry you're having to deal with this Juliette. I have three Gmail/Google accounts so I reported it three times. Hopefully with all of us reporting it YouTube will finally do something! Edit: How did you come to know that someone has been stealing your videos?
Maybe I'M the fake one and Katie is the REAL ME π± it showed up in a tab in my Youtube Studio under copyright as their content matched mine. Thank you, Neil! I hope it gets actually looked at now by Youtube π I might look into getting legal advice if it continues! I don't think they mean any harm by it - but it's just annoying.

Thank you, Rhi xx
I tried to report under impersonation but when I put in that they're impersonating Jules Reacts, it says channel not found. Anyone run into this issue?
Ooh that's strange! it comes up for me when I try it that way. Thank you for trying π
Done and done. Reported as Impresonation. Hope you can get this resolved Jules, GL.
Thank you π₯°
It of course can sound strange, but this definitely is worth a copyright claim, no?
Yes, ideally! But that is a big process and I'd like to try with some help form people here first.
For the report reason, wouldn't this fall under Legal:Copyright? edit: I just tried it and it sent me to https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2807622?hl=en where there is a process. I didn't continue since it states "The copyright owner, or an agent authorized to act on the ownerβs behalf, should submit the removal request.", but a copyright complaint feel right since they're ripping off your whole video.
Yes, ideally! But that is a big process and I'd like to try with some help form people here first.
Reported. Hope it helps. Let me know if there is anything else I can do
Thank you so much!! I really hope it works!
Jules, Happy to help! What should I choose as the reason? Scam? Impersonation? But when I look at their description, impersonation doesn't really fit. He's stealing your content, not your name. So...scam right? Grrrrrr. Makes me angry that people would steal your hard work. So sorry this is happening. We'll get 'em tho! We got your back!
I selected Impersonation; you can say they are impersonating someone else. They're using a different name but still presenting themselves as Jules, so I think that falls under impersonation. :-)
