Yeah, exactly. I don't think I have the answer to that. I mean, I am not even saying it was the wrong way. I just don't feel good about the way taken and I am wondering if there was a better way. That said, something needed to be done and the result is good it seems but it's important to remember everyone is human. Everyone has a soul. Everyone's soul is immeasurably valuable.
I think the better ways of resolving it were impossible without more involvement from the platform itself. Because it seems that this is just the last of the plagiarism accusations, and just so happened to stick more than the other accusations. It's very likely that had a prominent YouTuber not made a take down video, nobody would have known that this guy and others were plagiarizing anything. And I mean, imagine how the people whom work was stolen for profit are feeling?
