pretty sure TOS stops being enforcable when you start stealing things actually worth money.
we would need someone to reach almost 1k in a superchat
or be missing 1k to get into court
small claims wouldnt be worth the time
Like steams tos works only because you don't actually pay for the game, you pay for rights to play it.
ya
same with EULAs. unenforcabke.but going to court is too mjcb troubke for avergae joe/jane
access to the service
which is what youtube will claim as well, we give out free access to the service
we can do what we want
You need to go to court for principle, not money.
ya i get that, but there is a monitary ammount before it gets taken seriously, if someone could claim other things other than the loss of money then other stipulations can be added
Given the right of crowd funding for some legal stuff, like Danks stuff, there is a possibility for a few people to go to bat on behalf of us, the viewer. And the person getting their money stolen.
ya that is what it would really take
given how the left tried to eat pewdepie, i wonder if hey will try to gank his cash, but i think he is still mostly on their good side
honestly any lawsuit would need someone with his clout to even get noticed
(hate saying that he has clout, but 65million subs is a hell of a number)
Pewds isn't on their good side, YouTube just knows they can't piss him off so much he jumped to bitchute and helps make them popular
ya that is a good point
does he do live streams on youtube? im betting he is a twitch guy right? (i dont keep up with too many live streams)
You don't need his clout, just the money. So, take a few of these people floating around, like Sargon, Tim, dank, bearing, etc. And get all their supporters to donate to the cause.
I wonder if they could refund some of the money easily if the won. Like make the goal to get YouTube to change their practice, set a precedent, and cover the legal fees.
Imagine the standard that could set, sueing the large cooperations to change their practices and get you donation refunded out of the corporations pockets
We'd no longer need the government to police things like twitter
suing people doesnt really work like that
you dont sue someone then get to dictate things to them
you sue them get money and hope that changes them
but they dont have to change
and likely will just pay to have the thing go away
Depends on what the judge decides really
not in civil court
the judge can say stuff but there is not really any guarentee in civil court that anything will change legally speaking
True, there is not guarantee they will change, but why keep doing something people can successful keep sueing you for?
payout vs profit
Particularly something as simple to change as "just refund the money"
if the payout is lower than the profit
they will pay out till they are blue in the face
just look at the auto industry
they literally made that their jobs
lol
They are not profiting from this tho, according to the YouTube rep, YouTube donates all the money.
