Abusing YouTube Copyright Claims (Tutorial)

Great for making your video ad-free. But things have moved on since then, you can now guarantee 50% of the ad revenue. this video

This video blew up a few days ago on Youtube: this video The author shows how to sort of turn the tables on the copyright abusers by producing an original song (if you could call it that), distributing it through a distributor (1) and then using it in your own video to be able to claim your own video for a 50/50 revenue split with the abuser. Seems slightly related to this one as well. In the end stuff like this goes to show that Youtube's systems are a complete and utter joke, but since Youtube has zero competition, it won't change. 1: The creator used CD Baby, if you're going to do this, I recommend DistroKid, it is about a zillion times better than CD Baby. Even the CD Baby creator endorses DistroKid.

> Could you act as your own copyright troll? Yes! this video > That is, what happens when you file copyright claims against your own works from a second account?

If you make more sockpuppets to copystrike yourself, you get proportionally more and deprive the cf, e.g. 4 puppets vs 1 cf splits 80%/20%. > Also, how many TOS and laws would this violate? lolwhocares, I'm with emplemon - no respect for broken tos and laws

The self-claiming thing has at least been done already (through the use of online music labels): < this video > and < link > YouTube doesn't let just anyone make ContentID claims and start trolling. You do need to jump through a few hoops to get an air of legitimacy first.
