YouTube faces backlash on Twitter over lifted, uncredited holiday video

-
When Lily Hevesh opened Twitter and saw YouTube’s Christmas video, it looked very familiar. That’s because it was her own.

YouTube’s tweet doesn’t credit Hevesh at all or mention her YouTube channel. The tweet also cuts Hevesh’s intro, which acts as a welcome to her channel for those who stumble upon the video. Hevesh’s original video, uploaded to YouTube on December 23rd, has just over 60,000 views, but YouTube’s lifted version boasts more than 250,000.

Hevesh, a professional domino artist, uses YouTube as, essentially, a specialized form of advertising for her work. You can see what her creations look like if you want to hire her. By stripping out the attribution to Hevesh when it brought the video to a broader audience, YouTube’s tweet â€" sent out to 71 million subscribers â€" prevents Hevesh from getting the recognition that might lead to jobs.

“Very glad to see that my Christmas domino e-card is getting good use,” Hevesh tweeted on Christmas. “However, I’m a bit disappointed that YouTube would take my video and re-upload it with absolutely no credit.”

The problem is even broader, though. YouTube creators like Hevesh rely on views and subscribers to retain ad deals and secure sponsorship deals â€" so when YouTube didn’t direct viewers to Hevesh on YouTube, the company cost her money directly. Which may be why Hevesh’s disappointment caught the attention of both creators and the community-at-large.

“Merry Christmas! YouTube just freebooted one of its own creators,” Sabrina Cruz, a YouTube creator with just under 200,000 subscribers, tweeted.

Re-uploading video while stripping credit is a practice that YouTube explicitly condemns. YouTube’s community guidelines and policy page specifically state that creators should only “upload videos that you made or that you’re authorized to use.” But YouTube does own a limited license to people’s videos, so legally, the company can take Hevesh’s content and upload it to its Twitter account. The problem is ethical.

“I just don’t get it,” Hevesh followed up. “YouTube created Content ID to protect creators from thieves freebooting their videos, yet here they are re-uploading people’s work for promotional purposes [without] any credit.”

YouTube did acknowledge its mistake in a followup tweet on December 26th, plugging Hevesh’s channel. Hevesh responded, stating that “YouTube came thru.”

YouTube Premium is changing because it has to

-
YouTube is gearing up to offer its prestige lineup of original series and films for free to all users, turning to its traditional ad-supported system in an attempt to bring in more viewers. The company is looking to pull back on its ad-supported programs by 2020, limiting the number of original series and films it orders, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Series that are ordered, which include a few with Hollywood star talent attached, will be available to all YouTube users for free, regardless of whether they’ve signed up for YouTube Premium. In the past, pilot episodes were free to watch, but users had to pay a monthly $12 fee to watch the entire series. Robert Kyncl, YouTube’s chief business officer, told The Hollywood Reporter that the company learned through experimentation that “a lot of the projects work incredibly well” when they’re made available for free through ad-supported networks. It’s a different approach than what YouTube’s team originally wanted to...

Millions in cryptocurrencies frozen after Canadian founder's death

-
TORONTO (Reuters) - About C$180 million ($137.21 million) in cryptocurrencies have been frozen in the user accounts of Canadian digital platform Quadriga after the founder, the only person with the password to gain access, died suddenly in December. Gerald Cotten died aged 30 from complications with Crohn's disease while volunteering at an orphanage in India, according to the Facebook page of Quadriga CX, which announced his death on January 14. The platform, which allows the trading of Bitcoin, Litecoin and Ethereum, filed for creditor protection in the Nova Scotia Supreme Court last week. Quadriga has 363,000 registered users and owes a total of C$250 million to 115,000 affected users, according to an affidavit filed by Cotten's widow Jennifer Robertson on behalf of the company. Robertson said in the affidavit that Cotten's main computer contained a "cold wallet" of cryptocurrencies, which is only accessible physically and not online, and his death left ...

Instagram is testing a donation sticker in Stories

-
Instagram is experimenting with a potential donation sticker for its Stories feature, as spotted by app researcher Jane Manchun Wong. The feature seems similar to what Facebook offers with its fundraising and donation tools for charity or personal reasons. Based on Wong's screenshot, it looks like users will be able to search through a list of nonprofits to link directly to the sticker. Facebook has had fundraising tools since 2015, but it only recently dropped fees associated with those donations. It also offers other payment processing tools for Marketplace and Messenger. Over the past few years, Instagram has been experimenting with what payments would look like on the platform, but it has so far only released test features to allow select users to book spa appointments and restaurant reservations. Instagram is also reportedly working on a standalone shopping app, so it isn’t out of the realm of possibility for payment functionalities to also exist on Stories. As usual, bo...
