You Tube flags, strikes, & bans

Jim The Tyreman:
Many of the strikes have been removed. Britec included. Microsoft had employed an agency to scan for key codes and the 3rd party just went to town!!

I think Puppy had a strike following a tutorial regarding netflix? (Correct me if I'm wrong), so should be safe now Microsoft have backed off!

LinuxNoob:
More updates on the #microstopped fiasco.

Dookus:
Have been hoping that this may be picked up by the wider media, M$ has admitted they were wrong, yet neither Youtube nor M$ are doing anything to change the situation.

in brief.

Microsoft hammered a wide swath of YouTube Tech Content creators and was able to get their content pulled in a heartbeat by claiming their content breached copy write laws, their content did nothing more than criticise (rightly so in my opinion) Windows 8 for being a poor offering, Microsoft has admitted their actions were wrong, but nothing is being done by either Google (owners of Youtube) or Microsoft to reverse this decision to wrongly use the law to sensor free speech.
I’m hoping since Youtube is owned by Google and the majority of searches are made using the Google Search Engine (Google manipulate search results, you will not find much of this information using Google) that people will post this information to help reverse this.

Scott:
 8) Thanks for the news Coastie. Until I saw the video you posted here I didn't fully appreciate the situation. I really hope those that were wrongly accused are able to get reinstated.
