Copyright

Seriously guys you're being a piece of shit about this and I have a legitimate grievance.
Hym "Guys, I'm not going to use your copyright to screw you the way you're trying to use my copyright to screw me. I'm better than you. Truly. So much better it actually boggles the mind. The BEST some might say. But that's neither here nor there. You guys are a bunch of egotistists. Relax."

copyright

The reason your youtube video was taken down. 3 seconds of a copyrighted song? Taken down. An edited version of a small clip of a copyrighted video or movie? Taken down.

Nobody likes it.
person 1: my video got copyright striked for 3 seconds of a song
person 2: sometimes copyright is garbage
person 1: yes

Copyright Confusion

A state of being caused by the digitisation of society. Basically, nobody knows when they may use online images and videos. So they use it. And get sued. Cue chaos.
Copyright Confusion is no defence against the accusation of copyright violations.

Copyright

"Where (YouTube) merely assists an author in the creative process, its use does not change the copyrightability of the output,"

"Where a human inputs their own copyrightable work and that work is perceptible in the output, they will be the author of at least that portion of the output,"

From an "Ars Technica" article about the copyrightability of art as it relates to AI but I think it applies nicely here.
Hym "And what part of 'Using the existing architecture of narrative-interpreting AI in conjunction with a massive data set and a sophisticated compression algorithm (specifically to cut down on the energy cost)' is imperceptible? That's me. That is the 'they will be the author of AT LEAST that portion of the output. THAT is all that is happening here. The YouTube panhandlers wanted to get me for copyright infringement BUT THEY COULDN'T ESTABLISH INTENT. So they decided to engage in this retaliatory and deliberate and for profit copyright infringement campaign. For the YouTube freaks, the retaliatory nature of the act IS the expression of intent. It's cut and dry. It's no intent vs intent. Full forfeiture and restitution! They are also doing it for ideological reason which is a violation of my first amendment rights! Make the jew news pay for burying the story!"

Copyright

Copyright is a system which protects a persons official work.

When someone copies, reproduces, or does anything to a protected work that recreates any original work in it, they are going against the rules of copyright. The original creator of that piece of work can sue the person who broke the rule against his work.

Remember that copyright does not protect even official work forever. When it is no longer protected by copyright, it becomes part of the public domain. This means people can now copy this piece of work.
You can get permission from the owner to copy the piece of work, and if he/she says yes, you can copy their work without any trouble.
Another thing you should know about copyright is "fair use." Fair use is a rule in which works can be used for purposes, like education, parodies, and more.

Other Fact:
There is even a symbol for copyright. (©)
