This has been YouTube’s stance for nearly two decades.
james (@jamesjhare.com) reply parent
YouTube automatically takes down videos with copyright strikes in most cases.
james (@jamesjhare.com) reply parent
They have zero protections against spurious copyright claims because that’s what the law requires basically. They don’t want to deal with liability for copyright infringement. False claims of infringement are much more of a problem than this one incident.
james (@jamesjhare.com) reply parent
YouTube has specific legal obligations with regard to copyright that are at issue here. Their actions are related to that. To suggest otherwise is inaccurate.

james (@jamesjhare.com) reply parent
Generally the copyright strike is automatic and the poster needs to remediate. The main issue is that this is not censoring original speech but enforcing the copyright regime that exists in the US in 2025. Not a fan of either but accuracy matters.

They follow most copyright claims without much thought. The original post suggests that the problem was content that the author created. Instead the problem is reposting copyrighted material without permission. Is it right? No. Is it within the bounds of the law? Yes.

the difference in likeability between Peyton Manning and Travis Kelce is a chasm that no person can design a method to traverse Peyton is a weird football playing robot without a purpose. Travis seems like a pretty OK dude.
james (@jamesjhare.com) reply parent
Travis' true value to the Chiefs is that he and Patrick Mahomes know each other very well and when Mahomes doesn't know what the hell else to do with the ball he can throw it in Travis' direction and there's a better than average chance it will end in a positive play.

statistically the production of players over 30 (especially in positions like wide receiver and tight end) very quickly regresses to below average level not sure how valid the stats are because you're dealing with much smaller sample sizes of 30+ NFL players

I don't know that I'd even call it a fall-off. He's still an impactful player it's just that the NFL has no time for anyone over 35 for the most part. Pretty sure all the football stuff is meaningless in the end. He met this lady he really loves and they're getting married.

He is helped a great deal by being a reliable option for a QB who specializes in off-schedule plays. He's a great player and probably deserves the HoF but his glory days are mostly behind him. I always thought he was waiting to win the SB to propose.
james (@jamesjhare.com) reply parent
Travis is not at the height of his career. His prime was 6+ years ago. He's useful to the Chiefs but that's probably the only NFL team that can make use of him anymore. He's basically a wide receiver and most of them fall off at 30. Never known as a blocker.
