Paul, thank you for your videos, particularly the videos you have made over the past few months. They provided me with some hope while I was in exile. At least one major Youtuber was talking about reforms that were desperately needed on Youtube. I am appealing to you to reconsider your decision of abandoning Youtube. You have over 38,000 subscribers. Your voice still matters here, Paul. Please consider what I have to say before you walk away. Youtube suspended my account in December for posting a copy of this video by Firefly515. About three minutes into the video you can see Firefly begging everyone who watched the video to repost it to their channel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... Read through my correspondence with Youtube's copyright department. Watch Harry, they Youtube Lawyerbot, in action (or maybe that should be "inaction"). I have never seen more pathetic public relations in my life. http://www.themaskedanalyst.co... The link below is to the first in a series of videos that I made upon the end of my suspension. The videos explain in detail how I was suspended and how the DMCA can be abused to get Youtube to suspend anyone's account. I explain how Youtube's enforcement policy goes well beyond what the DMCA requires. I also explain in detail why Youtube is so special and I raise the question of whether there should be government regulation of Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... Here is my website where I take an in-depth look at the DMCA, Fair Use, and the purpose of copyright law. I examine case law to back my claim that the DMCA is unconstitutional. And I provide several case studies of DMCA abuse. http://www.themaskedanalyst.co...

I can't take you seriously with that mask on

THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY! HERE, HERE!

Besides, if you ever hope to earn your way into their good graces then coming back against the TOS is counterproductive. If they ever decide to give people amnesty, they will probably be less likely to forgive someone who has come back in violation of TOS.

You have every right to chastise me. I should have answered. My apologies. YT does not do an IP ban. BUT once you are banned, you are persona non grata. You violate terms of service by opening up a new account. Of course, you could violate TOS by signing up for a new account but if YT finds out they will suspend your account. Building a subscription base under these conditions is like building a house on quick sand.

thanks for taking the time to put on a mask and make these videos...BUT not taking 5 seconds to reply to people who respond to them. URAJOKE

Does YT ban your IP address or something? DNS? How can you realistically be banned for life???? Help me understand, please?
MABman622 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
WOW...all I can say. WOW.

YouTube's site does have a "critical mass" and Paul is unlikely to create a mass-exodus over to his new site which will "replace" YouTube. But, despite common misconception, "being number one" is not the only and sole purpose of life. If Paul has enough people who come to his site - even if not exclusively, as they still post and use YouTube - then it'll survive and fulfil its "raison d'etre". And that's good enough.

You just can't resist putting the red skull into one of your videos...in fact, i don't think you could talk on camera for more than 2 minutes without mentioning him. Personally I think he makes you a better analyst. You need the rivalry. From the tension you birth your videos.

I only uploaded Firefly's video as a favor to Firefly. He ASKED everyone to upload his video. Actually, he BEGGED others to upload his video. You need only watch his video to know that I had his permission to upload it. Since I could demonstrate that I had his permission, Youtube should have reinstated my account within a day or two. Instead, it took them 4 months.
