I mean that’s what these people are trying to do and claiming to do, but under most jurisdictions this doesn’t hold in court
Comment on What is with these videos where it's just someone reaction to shit someone else is doing?

Because if you show the original video, thats copyright infringement, and pirating of content.
Show the “reaction”, and it falls within fair use. Even if the reactor doesn’t DO anything.

And that’s exactly why YouTube channel H3H3productions is suing some Twitch streamers that just reposted his content with no commentary whatsoever (some of the those streamers even went to the bathroom during their “reaction”).

It’s funny how they won a lawsuit over the same thing back in the day and we were all on their side, but now they’re rabid Zionists who lie about everyone else and their critiques of them and standing the last of their money to mount lawsuits against small, often women, creators who they know don’t have money to fight back.
Fuck H3.

i doubt that, but it would probably depend no jurisdiction.
i think it is just really lazy way how to become a youtuber. you only need to be attractive person with no other skill.

Copyright circumvention is the lie YouTubers tell themselves as they shamelessly feed their ego. They’re imagining all their followers laughing because they thought something was funny. Copyright circumvention is the useful product distilled by human ingenuity out of the toxic cesspool this market created as it feeds upon the attention capacity of the youth of the world.
