Seriously, IEG? Didn't they get booted out during the whole Kespa/Blizzard war, when it was determined that Kespa didn't have the right to sell broadcasting rights to IEG in the first place, resulting in IEG pulling sponsorship from their proleague team?

Hope this gets sorted out fast. If those fuckers still have the rights somehow... hope they don't start shutting down streams.

This is very possible, and it wouldnt be the first time.


Also a new message from Nevake on his channel:

nevake (7 minutes ago)

A few VODs have been blocked worldwide today as they "may include content that is owned or administered by International E-sports Group", I'm disputing it at the moment, I've never heard of this group but they definitely have nothing to do with these VODs.

Seems like the CJ vs. ACE VODs on nevake are unblocked now. Sayle's still aren't though.

Oh Youtube. why are you like this :|

Maybe his copyright dispute was successful? I haven't tried disputing for mine yet. It's interesting though. If IEG really does have the rights, why would they only block CJ vs ACE? All the other matches were left untouched, at least on my channel.

What I meant was, if the dispute was already deemed successful on the basis that the claim was fraudulent, then all of these IEG copyright claims should therefore be withdrawn as well. And yes, it was only CJ vs. ACE for both channels. Maybe "IEG" is just a CJ/ACE whore. "Go ahead and watch your other crappy teams, but you don't get CJ and ACE. They're MINE!" lol

I believe there's someone archiving Nevake offline.

I wonder if IEG decided to have some guy go flag latest VODs or something. Funimation sometimes just youtube searches (if you can call it that) their properties and Copyright requests them down.

This reminds of a rant by Shamus Young on the Problem of Youtube
The Problem of Youtube

Basically because of the way liability is set up (youtube can get sued for any of it's millions of videos), the entire system is guilty until proven Innocent. The problem is absolutely anyone can claim copyright infringement, but there's no penalty for falsely accusing. But it's a huge hassle to prove your innocence. But once you do, it can be immediately flagged for copyright infringement again.

In any event, it's stupid stupid stupid.

Are you suggesting that it might not have even been IEG that complained, but a random vigilante who thinks they know what is copyrighted? Or do you have to own the video to make the complaint?

Yeah, from Shamus's writing, he's gotten videos flagged from... and I quote:

YouTube starts off by notifying you that their content-sniffer has detected that you have used “Third Party Content”. It tells you what kind (audio or video) and who the owner is, but that’s it. It doesn’t name the original work, give a timestamp for where it was detected, or even provide a link to the alleged owner. There’s no contact info and you can’t ask for clarification. In the past, I’ve had people assert “ownership” over segments of freely-available game trailers. (They did not own, produce, market, or publish the game, the trailer, or the footage. It was just some asshat who put up a trailer and said, “I own this”.)

There has been a spate of Russian companies that file complaints on Youtube videos neither party holds the copyright to and then uploads their own version. I wonder if this is related?

Youtube gas gone down the drain. At least in germany it is totally unuseable because every second video is blocked due to copyright. Thank god there are already countless eastern european, russian and chinese sites waiting to fill it's shoes

From what I can find, IEG was listed as the "strategic partner" for the Cyberathlete Professional League.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberathlete_Professional_League

There's also some stuff floating around from a few years ago that says IEG purchased the rights to broadcast BW from kespa, like others have mentioned in this post already.

Sucks though because youtube is better for picking up casuals at random. It might be changing, but most people are going to youtube something before they bliptv it.
