As of last night Fake Friends 2

0:00:03.727,0:00:04.972
is back online

0:00:04.972,0:00:08.973
It took 3 months (laughter) but it's back

0:00:09.366,0:00:11.258
The UMG claim is gone

0:00:11.624,0:00:13.768
I'm gonna make a video about everything

0:00:13.768,0:00:17.768
That happened. And some stuff that

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
happened that I feel should not have

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
happened. And long story short it only went

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
back up, I got a message this morning

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
from someone who is a fan of mine who

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is a Google employee. Who kind of

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
reached out internally about it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
After finding out what happened.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And that basically immediately solved it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
After 3 months of me trying everything

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that I, you know, basically everything

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that I knew to try.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I was actually talking to the EFF about

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
getting pro-bono legal representation

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Although I hadn't followed up with

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
them in a bit because I was hoping

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it wouldn't come to that.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And it didn't! I just got lucky.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I really appreciate the person who

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
reached out for me.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But I am still so frustrated!

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
With the situation. I'll be making

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
A video about everything that happened

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Soon probably, called something like

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
YouTube copyright hell.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And I'll make sure to either use royalty

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
free music or license the music for

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that one. Although that's no guarantee

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that it won't be taken down too.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Very very grateful to the person who

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
reached out for me, like super grateful

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But none of this should have happened

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in the first place. I'm still

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
frustrated about it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Yeah, link in the description

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm very excited that Fake Friends 2

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Is back, and if you haven't seen it

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and you have 2 hours of free time

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You should check it out. Thanks.
