      It’s clickbait.

      That is an absolute bullshit ignorant knee jerk claim.

      As I wrote in a previous response:
      Bloomberg has 10 days to file for lawsuit against Gamers Nexus. If they do, the take down stands, and it’s a strike until Gamers Nexus may win the case. Which will be expensive. 3 strikes and YouTube closes the channel with near zero option for appeal.

      Gamers Nexus cannot manage if a big company like Bloomberg goes all in. They can easily bankrupt a small channel like Gamers Nexus with frivolous lawsuits. And if you are bankrupt, you can’t defend yourself.

      The US judicial system is heavily tilted towards those that have more money.

        Oh please get over yourself, you silly self righteous fan boy. Don’t act as if your beloved “Tech Jesus” is above tactics like click baiting to get clicks and views. Almost every single one of his videos has a click bait or otherwise “algorithm optimized” title and thumbnail.

        And I get it, it’s their livelihood, they rely on getting views, but that doesn’t make it not click bait and this one in particular is a gross exageration: they got a single bogus copyright strike and it was reverted. The channel was never going to be deleted.

        Hey and it worked too, because I got it in my youtube feed, clicked on it and watched the video, and I probably wouldn’t have if I had known it was such a nothing burger.

          Where did I claim Gamers Nexus is above using click bait!
          But very clearly it isn’t here, and the amount of downvotes you received for claiming it, hints that most don’t agree with you.
          So maybe it’s not so much me, as it is you making an unreasonable and unfounded claim.

          And no the take down is not reverted, it is in a process where it MAY be reverted.

          Also I don’t see you provide a single valid argument for your statement, while I actually explain how it is not click bait, because the threat is real.

            But very clearly it isn’t here

            How the hell isn’t it?

            Title: “Our Channel Could Be Deleted” <insert dramatic thumbnail featuring the word “SILENCED” in big capital letters>

            Yet even in the video itself they explain that :

            1. Youtube sided with them, the copyright strike got reverted and the video restored. The only recourse Bloomberg has is to press actual charges in a court of law.
            2. It takes three copyright strikes to delete a channel.

            And I will add my own 3: YouTube will never just outright delete a cashcow channel like GamersNexus.

            I get that they’re pissed because the claim was bogus and it cost them good ad revenue on that video, and they will probably not recoup the cost of making it, but the channel is not and never was in danger of being deleted. So the title is clickbait for some, let’s be honest, rather mid content.

            the amount of downvotes

            LOL “I’m right because I got more upvotes”.

              How the hell isn’t it?

              Because it is true, the channel could be deleted, and it was an obvious attempt by Bloomberg to silence him, which he shows many reason for why they may want to do in the video.

              When it is true it is not clickbait.

                  I did and edited my comment, adding more false claims doesn’t make you right.
                  Also it’s rich calling me dense, when you repeatedly make the same false claim that the take down is reverted when it is not. It’s explained very clearly in the video, that it takes 10 days from filing the complaint. If Bloomberg persist on the issue, the take down stands.

                  You are very dense to not accept that when it’s explained to you at least three times!!!

                    I addressed this. Bloomberg must press actual legal charges for the takedown to stand, and provide proof to Youtube. This is mentioned very around 7:32 in the video. Here’s a screenshot:

                    YouTube is basically saying to Bloomberg: yeah, we are ruling that this is not infringement, but if you still disagree and really want to press the issue… put your money where your mouth is and provide proof that you filed actual legal charges. They’re only doing what is legally required of them by the DMCA.

                    And, as you conveniently keep ignoring, even if alllll this ends up with Bloomberg suing GamersNexus in a court of law and winning (a highly unlikely outcome) and the video being permanently delisted… that is still only 1 copyright strike, and not enough for “The Channel To Be Deleted!!!”. It basically takes 3 strikes within the same 90 days for a channel to be subject to deletion. Ergo: it is fucking click bait. Their channel is not and never was in danger of being deleted.
