James Alefantis requested removal of "proof" for death threats (pizzagate)

submitted ago by Ushil

It was re-uploaded by another user: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQP_cm6aWjQ

If you go to the description in that video, you can go to the Death Threat Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqMMm52CWxE

It says: "the video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by James A. Alefantis"

At first I thought he messed around with the source code, but there isn't anything unique in the video which infringes copyright more than other videos. Now if mr. Alefantis visits Voat, which he probably does, I would like to ask him what the reason for this is? Maybe there is a rational explanation, but this looks very strange.

Ok, update, it seems like the message completely disappeared, but here is a screenshot from when it was still up: https://postimg.org/image/ufsn6qd37/

The screen turns white now, is that normal to happen after a while with copyright claims of Youtube videos?

YouTube takes any video down when someone puts a copyright flag on it then it's up to the individual to submit proof which is a drawn out process :/

But why does it say James A. Alefantis put a copyright flag on it? If he is a psychopath I don't get this move. It is blatantly exposing yourself.

He isn't a Psychopath, he is an attention seeking Narcissist. They are dumb and don't realise they are dumping themselves in it.

Exposing in what way?

Ushil ago

He uses his full name

AreWeSure ago

OK. I thought you meant exposing his guilt or something.

So......what is he exposing? His middle name is Achilles isn't it? I'm pretty sure this is public knowledge by now.

He's pulling down anything with his name, I guess.

I've submitted a copyright claim, also. It isn't a long drawn out process.It's very easy and simple.

I think the James a alefantis is either what he fills out on the form or the name of his account? Maybe we can dig his yt account for stuff?

Ushil ago

Maybe he didn't use a YouTube account?

Can you flag something for removal without an account I haven't tried.

You just need a google / gmail account.
