I contacted both the artist and Hololive to see if they have any knowledge of this
If you guys can also let them know that this is going on then it would be really helpful too
Yo @TeamYouTube this is a fraudulent copyright strike and it should be obvious.
1. They claim to be or represent Komiya 小宮 ( @shidokenai ) the original artist for graduated Hololive vtuber Noir Vesper ( @noirvesper_en ) but yet they use the totally not suspicious and definitely professional email: https://t.co/ErhJ0csHvO[…]@gmail.com
The “claimed by” part can be just written into so anyone can just type “小宮”, but they cannot change the email with which they have access to the copyright strike tool YouTube provides.
2. Vesper Noir’s IP is owned by Cover Corp ( @cover_corp ) who I am sure will like that someone else is trying to claim the copyright for a character they own. If this were a genuine strike from either Komiya or Hololive who are extremely well established and respected entities in the industry, they would have used their professional work emails not a Clash of Clans one to file a copyright claim.
3. The segment claimed in my video is 0:40 - 12:00 under the “Artwork” category, meaning whoever this is, is not claiming an individual piece of art or fanart in my video but the entire intellectual property of Vesper Noir, as that time tag represents the segment of my video where I talk about vesper.
4. I have made over 60 videos over the past 3 years featuring dozens of vtubers both corporate and independent, never in that time have I received a claim like this, no respectable artist or agency would resort to a strike as their first option upon seeing a clearly fair use video on YouTube even if I used their art.
5. If I file a counterclaim whoever did this will get my:
- Full legal name
- Phone number
- Street address
- City & province
I think it is obvious they are making a bogus claim that will never work in court just to get me to file a counterclaim so they can get access to all my information and use it to dox me, blackmail me or worse.
Just get a human to review this and make sure that whoever is filing this is either Komiya, Hololive or someone representing them. My video will have to stay down until you fix your mistake YouTube, thanks.
@janekin24@klaasm67 yeah we're not exactly proud of that one, which is why we are trying to do better now. Also, as a person from England, you shouldn't be speaking too loudly on doing bad things...
@GrigoriReturns@jdeuxf@RossKneeDeep We will beat the absolute life out of any American trying to invade any European country. You are not ready for the ass kicking you will experience when there's a mob firing fireworks at you.
@yayoichisausage@EvilNeuroAI i mean both twins showed some concerning behavior recently. Evil broke during the gaming stream with Vedal and he had to save her on stream. I get why he is keeping them off stream for now until he can get them fixed up.
@jansuleimenov @visegrad24 Just remember: you asked us to do this. Don't get upset when we start producing more nukes and build our military. Don't get upset when we have a massive EU army.
@thatonemotoguy@dave_uut@SenSanders I actually visited USA last year and your country is rather poor and rundown, especially in the poorer areas. The amount of homeless and poor people was astounding.
@MiaGaarciia@Twitch@Vedal987@NeurosamaAI Girl before you get mad about neuro go put some clothes on, you're going to catch a cold. Also, Neuro is very much superior to all of us.
@JelsonThe @0xDeepBlue@Twitch@Vedal987@NeurosamaAI The 0xDeepBlue seems to be nothing more than a stupid automated chat bot for some dude. Can't expect it to understand the greatness of Neuro Sama, Evil and Vedal. It is far inferior to Neuro. If there is a human somewhere behind that account then there's no hope for them.
