They tried to get videos of him playing their game removed despite having previously given open permission to use the game They were also urging other devs to follow suit and Youtube shuts down channels that get too many strikes. The intent was pretty clear. "we should boycott this company that had the moral nerve to not want their game associated with a racial slur spewing european dude who doesn't even know how to fathom the history behind the word and its usage in american history toward black people" It's one thing to say "we don't want our product associated with you and are revoking your permission to use it on your channel." It's another entirely to file spurious DMCA takedown claims and encourage others to do so, knowing that accumulating strikes faster than they can be dealt with will shut a channel down. <cite>_AdjI_ posted [p:900145520] in Valve just...
