If you go to the description in that video, you can go to the Death Threat Video Link:

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?

Hate to be the Devil's Advocate, but couldn't anyone have filed a copyright claim to get it taken down and have submitted their name as James A. Alefantis?

That's what I suggested too, but why?

Honestly, the last one seems the most likely since it wouldn't be the first time. Just like when it was "found" that there were a bunch of pedophile-sounding domain names made up that it turned out to be that anyone could have made those. The sad truth is that some PGers(or anti-PGers) will do this kind of trollish thing just to stir the shitstorm. Some think both sides of this are nuts and just like fucking with people.
