    The point is actually a bit more nefarious than that. What he is saying is that most content on the internet (writing, pictures, videos, etc.) is monetarily worth at most a couple bucks. When he steals them, it isn't worth it financially for anyone to come sue him, therefore it "isn't valuable enough for it to matter."

    With the way copyright law cases play out, the only reason to cut a deal on the front end is to save money on lawyers and reduce variance. If the offense isn't worth hiring lawyers that could handle Meta over, then it isn't a case they need to cut a deal for. The exception is class action, but how would you assemble defendants?

    Yeah, that's kind of the rub. Monetarily, most art is pretty worthless. However, for as voracious as our society is to consume it, we don't do a good job cultivating and caring for creators.

    It also probably wouldn't meet the requirements for class certification

    I don't know who this is but I feel like this should be a career ending incident yet I think it won't be.

    Being stupid and tasteless enough that people talk about how stupid and tasteless you are is the key to success on YouTube, no? Having refined tastes either implies there is a small demographic that appreciates your decisions or that you are conforming enough that you are boring.

    These are our modern fools

    The Q will be how much money he can make off milking this crash video, given how many others are talking/reacting to it. Because ultimately, that seems to be the thing driving a lot of this modern stupidity across all of social media.
    Doubt it'll be enough to cover a fricken McLaren, but I figure he wouldn't be hurting other than his ego dropped down a well.

    It's wild how this dude was in constant Content Creator mode, even giving his injured friend the camera so he could record reactions. These youtubers these days are this generations' "Jackass" except they usually involve other unwilling people in their stupidity.

    I have yet to see a single pro-democrat ad.

    Edit: I saw 2 Kamala ads shortly after this post. The algorithm is a scary beast.
