Mars Candy Bars (Starburst/Snickers/Twix) Pulls Advertisements from YouTube after Ad Appears on a Drill Hip Hop Video

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-45065986

Drill is a gang violence-themed hip hop primarily from Chicago & the UK.

The three letter network we can’t talk about had to pull one of their reviews after it was discovered they plagiarized it from another, much smaller channel.

Also Gameranx got busted (again) stealing content about Octopath Traveller from a smaller YouTuber.

Video from boomstick gaming but contains footage of the website that shall not be named's pulled review.

[Salodin]

This should be gamergate instead.

Barstoolsports' Twitch account threatened to swat another channel that was livestreaming their content, then got banned from Twitch themselves for making the threat.

[Zetanio]

Holy shit, what a buncha goons.

[Anoat]

People need to stop referring to swatting as “pranks” and “harassment”, and call it what it really is: attempted murder by cop.

The writer/editor has been fired and another plagiarized review has been found (FIFA 18 for Switch from NintendoLife).

[Zetanio]

Yeah, it's really not very funny.

[Salodin]

Imagine plagiarizing video game reviews like they're the pinnacle of journalism or writing. Dude became an editor of a major gaming website while at the same time being unable to change sentence structures enough to not make it obvious you're stealing intellectual property.

Someone put this guy on suicide watch.

I can't imagine how you phone in something like this so fucking hard. You can turn in high school quality writing and people will eat it up.

[archibaldcrane]

I'm guessing the gamer website writer was too busy gaming.

Im on board with getting people fired for blatant plagiarism.

Kind of crazy how Twitch will let Russian streamers show any copyrighted stuff they want. Every night in the IRL section it’s Russian movie night or full TV shows, no one seems to care lol

Twitch doesn’t care really until someone makes a DMCA claim

[fantasticdan]

That and russian media companies probably have little to no involvement with the automated systems that flag shit like content id.
