A Fake Nintendo Lawyer Is Scaring YouTubers, and It’s Not Clear YouTube Can Stop Him
A notorious troll, claiming to be a representative of Nintendo, has been targeting YouTubers with false copyright claims, putting their livelihoods at risk. Russ Crandall, aka Retro Game Corps, is one such creator who fell victim to this abuse.
The situation is alarming and chaotic for the YouTube community. Not only are these fake claims unfair and damaging, but they also undermine the very purpose of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) in the first place.
