what's up everybody today we'll be talking about I show speed and how he just got exposed for being the copyright system abuser that he is basically he has been scamming hundreds if not thousands of YouTubers by falsely content ID claiming their videos even though they are fair use now he was denying this to some extent for quite some time but he finally told the truth and said he is the one behind the false copyright claims now we're going to unpack this there's a lot to digest so let's get right into this so first of all who is I show speed I show speed is one of the largest streamers on the platform he is hitting crazy numbers he blew up in a very very short amount of time as you can see here he makes about 3.4 million dollars per year so he definitely doesn't need to scam anybody that's for damn sure his his content is mostly targeted to young kids I would say because I don't know what adult in their right mind would be able to tolerate a video like this but that's besides the point the real issue here is that being the large streamer that he is a lot of people were going to talk about him make commentary videos some people are going to straight up steal his videos and upload clips and other people are going to make fair use commentary videos now let me get this straight right off the bat if someone were to take his videos and just upload clips of it without any work into it I think that it is a hundred percent fair game that he should copyright claim those videos because they are stealing his work and putting in no effort of their own however this is not the case with the people he has claimed watch this a content creator by the name of omni said I'm getting copyright claim for the I show speed clip in my latest video disputed it and got rejected in 10 minutes by thumb media affiliate who I don't even think exists am I getting screwed over or is this legit puts my Channel at risk of getting a strike Jalen said these F heads claim my video and rejected my appeal and it's not a valid claim whatsoever they even claim parts of my original video they didn't even copyright it properly jabroni said there's a company called thumb media affiliate that's been striking commentary YouTubers who talk about I show speed I'm not sure if this company is actually affiliated with speed or if they're just falsely striking videos I DM speed to see if he can confirm now people were so shocked by what's going on and all the abuse that's happening literally just mentioning I show speed for a couple seconds in your videos can get it copyright claimed and all the money will go to that company people didn't know if it was actually him behind it and also keep in mind it is illegal to file a false dmca takedown or a copyright claim so this is actually very serious accusations so people brought it up to speed and this is what he had to say about it oh and by the way when I use his videos in this current video I will only be putting still shots and just including the audio because obviously I don't want him to steal the revenue from this video as well all right Chad and where's the all right I'll watch the video again and watch the video bro like oh my gosh doc bro that is a company called thumbity is copyright striking Auto foreign how do I stop this from happening like because it's not happening to me like that like how do I like stop this from happening what the [ __ ] like I don't get it bro eggs noobs okay all right bro so his initial reaction was oh how do I stop it this ain't happening to me but he's not outright denying it that he's actually the one that hired this company to copyright claim every single video that mentions him if a video even shows a couple frames of him it will get copyright claimed as I was watching the video that jabroni did exposing this idiot it turns out something clicked and I was like don't I remember actually making an ishow Speed video and it getting a copyright claim that was months ago it was on my main channel so I went into my YouTube studio and I searched under the copyright claims and there it was I actually have a copyright claim from I show speed under cardigan media which is the same company that has been copywriting the content and thumb media has been claiming it now this is just another example of him stealing the revenue from a YouTuber now in my case I didn't make a big deal about it because the video got age restricted anyways so there was no Revenue to steal it's the video where he almost burns his house down by lighting a firework inside his own home like I said this guy's genius is on another level we cannot comprehend it but that's besides the point so this is just an example how no matter how big or small if you make a video on I show speed he will copyright claim your content it doesn't matter how much work you put into it if there's any commentary if it's transformative if it's fair use the company he hired will take that income guaranteed and if you try to fight it you are at risk of getting a copyright strike because yes that's how the YouTube system works it is a broken system you need to give up all your information for the company to be able to sue you but they are not required to give any information whatsoever they are just a mysterious company that probably doesn't exist but yet they are able to reach into your pocket and steal your hard-earned income so yeah pretty despicable system we're working with but it is what it is on another other note when it comes to copyright strikes I fought about 40 on my other channel and unfortunately YouTube is just the way it is and it doesn't look like it's going to get fixed anytime soon but I digress let's move on to the second time that I show speed was actually confronted with this thumb media that he hired back then uh on a lighter note this whole thumb media situation did you hear that speed can you talk about that oh what'd you say you can't talk about that move on you say you can't talk about it oh okay all right no reason no reason so once again he is not admitting or denying that he is the scumbag that is filing hundreds of false copyright claims illegal copyright claims that is so at this point the interviewer decide to change subject because when you have a huge streamer like I show speed on an interview the last thing you want is to piss him off and lose the interview so I totally understand that part now the pressure was Rising people were like if it's not you then who it is you need to call them out that this company is false claiming videos under your name and it got to the point where he just couldn't ignore it anymore so he just decided to admit it that it was him take a look at this YouTube X y'all to stop spamming about these emails about the cardigan and the thumb midi affiliate that is me just wanted to let y'all know everybody know that so vagina guys please stop thank y'all love y'all so there you go he admitted that he is the one behind cardigan media that has been claiming everybody's videos no matter if there is transformative work into it or if it's just an outright steal now let me reiterate if it's someone that is straight up stealing his content and just posting Clips with no commentary then he would be totally in the right to claim these videos I see so many channels that are Clips channels of moist critical and I wonder how these channels are able to survive and monetize because it's obviously not their content but maybe just critical doesn't care but he would be in the right to copyright claim every single one of these videos fair use transformative work however is protected and streamers should not to be claiming videos that are fair use because it literally is illegal now let me show you an example of a fair copyright claim this is a video I did on my other channel it was an music remix of Another Brick in the Wall I rewrote the lyrics recorded my own voice and redid the music it got a copyright claim and it was identified as a cover and therefore we are sharing the revenue with Pink Floyd or whoever owns the rights this is an example of the copyright claim system working as intended however what I show speed is doing is not this whatsoever he is choosing to take all of the money that the videos make even though there is transformative work once again very illegal and a scummy thing to do especially when you're already a millionaire you don't need to be screwing over small YouTubers so I'm not a lawyer obviously I can't speak on the legalities of doing these false copyright claims so I'm not saying that he is a scammer but what it seems like is that he hired a company to do his Dirty Work to file the false copyright claims on his behalf I show speed has put himself in a lot of hot water lately recently he was caught promoting a scam we covered that as well and I think he recovered of that to some extent it's clear that his audience doesn't really care they're just kids like who else would listen to barking and find it entertaining but at least he's getting exposed I think that maybe because he's very young the power got to his head and he decided to go a little bit overboard with the copyright claims hopefully he will Rectify that in the near future so that's pretty much it for the video thanks for watching everybody please like And subscribe it really helps the channel and I'll see you guys on the next video
