... at the time the company that held the IP dmca'd the video, and it takes a while to make a 4 hour video? Also when the video was taken down by legal action, other people uploaded it and found out what was really happening that way. Even when the video was struck, IH didn't come clean about his transgressions. What is your argument here really?

And if copyright infringement like this doesn't concern you, that's fine it doesn't have to. But there are certain rules that content creators are deemed to follow, lest they run into this exact criticism. You can scoff and scowl at that fact, but that won't make that simple reality disappear.

And for what it's worth, lifting the entire article near verbatim in a video you then make money off of without so much as crediting it is, at best, shitty, and at worst a crime. Do with that what you will, but it certainly isn't a fly.

You strike me as someone who will not engage with this in good faith and who will instead just root for Internet Historian come hell or DMCA. You could prove me wrong but I mostly wrote the above for other passers-by.
