This is the original video:

https://youtu.be/k5xf40KrK3I?feature=shared

I don't understand why people illegally steal and reupload videos elsewhere on the internet. Just post the original video...

You can't just do that! If someone here is dedicated enough, then this will get you in big trouble!

I agree, it's super scummy. If you think somebody's video is important enough that it should be shared and spread, then just post the original video.

Also, a surefire way to ensure that PeerTube doesn't succeed is by associating it as a viable freebooting platform. No content creator will want to put their material on such a platform. It hurts both the video creator and PeerTube. It also puts the Lemm.ee admins at risk for facilitating this thread, if the video creator were litigiously-minded.

Hey! I'm not really sure about this at the moment. I can tell you that if the authors (or any legal entity) would contact me about this and ask for links to be removed, then I would comply, rather than try to fight it.

I say pirate from companies. I don't like stealing from people

I say pirate everything. I don’t like denying from society.

[-] doodledup@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

You'll lose your job in such a society. Anarchy isn't fun, believe me.

When does people become company? I hear that argument a lot from people that pirate movies. But they always forget that there are thousands of people working directly or indirectly on a single movie.

Piracy won't change the content for the better. First, it'll make content worse (which is already happening) and people get payed less before companies change their service. Piracy won't help. Period.

Find a better way to pay for movies directly and selectively, like phyiscal media. Don't subscribe to ever worsening streaming services. Go to the cinema. That is how movies will get back to what they were in the past because that is what people did in the past.

Same goes for every other medium. Piracy always sucks and all arguments you're giving is just a justification.

You just copy data, you know. They still have the thing

Besides YouTube is google, should have picked better platform

It’s in the name you know, COPYright. And who I am to refuse if someone would want to copy my copy

[-] doodledup@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

What you're saying is illogical. You can copy everything. Almost everything. You can copy software secrets, machine secrets, copy research and development. But where are we going to go if everyone started doing that? Anarchy? You'll probably lose your job in such a world. I don't know what you're working but there is a high probability you would be affected. There is no moral ground for piracy. Piracy and theft has never produced anything good. It will only make things worse, believe me.

Hack the planet!

3 reasons I uploaded the video to PeerTube:

  1. @DogPack404 had received a “cease and desist” at the time, thinking his video might be taken down.
  2. The video is not monetised.
  3. YouTube.

I’ve changed the URL to YouTube now though.
