[@Algebruh2407]

The rationale behind it is that teenagers will do stupid things as they are given more freedom over how they live their life compared to childhood and they don't fully understand the gravity of the consequences for doing the stupid things. That being said, saying that they are just a kid should be asking for leniency for someone who is remorseful, not a get out of jail card for someone who doesn't care about the consequences or is knowingly acting out because they are a kid.

@@espurrseyes42 How do you know that it was an attempt to destroy or ruin lives and not just purely for himself to make money or capitalize on his brand? You’re assuming that the victims’ livelihood heavily depended on the videos where IShowSpeed was featured. And be for real, really think about this and factor in his audience demographic, do you seriously think that a person has spent their life savings on that crypto just from that one livestream? I’m not doubting that a very minuscule percentage of his viewers spent a little bit of money on that crypto, but considering that most of his chat was against him and denouncing what he was doing, I believe that the chances of him ruining or destroying a life are extremely unlikely.

[@espurrseyes42]

@@HansYN_ Does it matter? By trying to do the latter through the scummy (and illegal) means of false copystriking, you run the risk of ruining someone's livelihoods. As made evident by whoever it was in the video saying he was going to stop uploading while he dealt with the claims. Because why would he waste time making a video only for it to get claimed and lose the revenue he could've made off it? Speed's actions were directly impacting this guy's ability to monetize the content he was making to the point where he had to put a hold on making content altogether. And I wouldn't be surprised if others did the same. Yes, he is ruining the lives of the people he was striking just to make some dirty money.

[@HansYN_]

@@espurrseyes42 I’m not arguing that it matters or arguing his scumminess. He deserves to get criticized for the things he did. But even if, like you said, one of the victims had to halt the making of their video and had their revenue affected for that time period, I still don’t think he’s destroying or ruining lives because these creators don’t depend on IShowSpeed to make content so they’ll take the hit and continue on with content creation without featuring him, and no one is in a situation where not gaining money from a video featuring IShowSpeed is financially ruining them as they’re unable to get another job or source of revenue. The guy you mentioned, MattRadiant (I think you’re referencing to), has a unique case where he got like 4 claims and decided to fight them all (with how the dispute works on KZbin, they can turn the claims into strikes). Although receiving the claims, he decided to take the risk to fight them. While I don’t agree with IShowSpeed and/or his management copyright claiming others, he could’ve let the claims stay (or deleted/private the videos), not risk his channel, and continue making content without a single mention of IShowSpeed. When it comes to lives affected, I’d say maybe more so obstructed but not to a level where they’re genuinely going broke and feel depressed and have a hard time getting back up (life ruined/destroyed).

@@MorganEdgy They could, but that probably wouldn't stop iShowSpeed from false copyright claiming through Thumb Media and any other ventures he or Adin Ross owns. As Act Man said, to iShowSpeed and Adin Ross, abusing the copyright system in this manner is a business to them, with the only logical way to hit them where it hurts is to cut off their forms of revenue in some way, shape, or form. The only way to get their attention is to go after the thing they care about more than anything in the world at this point: their money. One solution would be to do to them what Riot Games once did to tyler1 and ID ban them and any organizations their affiliated with indefinitely, then take it a step further and force them to pay all the money they had taken from those they've taken money from, as well as any interest accumulated for all the months those claims had been in force. They've proven themselves to be unrepentant offenders who would lie and abuse the system to get every single dollar they can get their hands on, so they need to be punished for this egregious behavior. I don't care if they go bankrupt and lose every penny from paying back what is due, once they've paid back all the money, then and ONLY THEN will KZbin CONSIDER removing the ID-bans. Also, put iShowSpeed on a predator watch list, for Christ's sake. The whole "Who's gonna stop me" schtick had gone from unfunny to stale to downright worrisome.

I am 19 and just realized I am older than I show speed. It’s pathetic to hear him make the excuse that “I’m young, I don’t know what I’m doing.” At 19, anyone on earth should be aware of the effects of their actions. Some places on earth, like Canada (where I’m from) 18 is the age of a legal adult. But IShowSpeed certainly knows the effects of his actions, and clearly does not care. This is pathetic. He is quite literally stealing. Most CHILDREN (myself included) learn that stealing is bad. At 12 years old, it’s reasonable to say “I’m young I don’t know what I’m doing.” So speed is quite literally acting like a 12 year old child. He also loves to bark like a dog, like a fucking animal or child
