Why do we have so many copyright issues compared to the past ?

511 views

We used to be able to see all sorts of videos on YouTube with official music and other stuff. I saw a woman get copyright claimed for playing Moonlight Sonata which belongs to the people. Streamers could also play music all they want and not get banned for it. But in the last years, everything has changed. How and why?

I do support and want the artists to either get credit or payment for their work, but the current state is kind of ridiculous.

there is no regulation or consequence for false reports. DMCA inverts the justice system by assuming you’re guilty until you prove otherwise, and sites like youtube take the easy way out by removing everything they’re asked to because it’s easier than protecting their users. the only thing slowing copyright trolls used was that they had to report everything manually, but now you can get a bot to detect everything vaguely similar to whatever you’re trying to protect and have it taken down
