Hasan warns TV show meta still \u201cdangerous\u201d despite Twitch reversing DMCA strike Twitch: HasanPopular streamer Hasan Piker has warned other Twitch stars leaning into the TV show meta is still \u201cdangerous\u201d and could lead to more bans despite his DMCA strike for watching old Master Chef episodes being reversed on January 10. Hasan has had his DMCA strike for watching TV shows on Twitch reversed after the Amazon-owned platform admitted it had made a mistake in the process. Twitch revealed in an email to the popular streamer on January 10 that a rogue DMCA notification, apparently opened by Fox Network, had been submitted on his channel, and then subsequently \u201cprocessed by mistake\u201d \u2014 an error that the streaming website has since had reversed. This doesn\u2019t mean the \u2018TV meta\u2019 is back though, Hasan warns. \u201cI got lucky,\u201d Piker said. \u201cI don\u2019t think this changes much. DMCA, it\u2019s case by case, copyright holders can do anything. If people go buck-wild, things will change.\u201d \u201cTwitch streamers have been more careful now,\u201d the Twitch star continued. \u201cThere\u2019s things that are going to be let go, I think, old shows the copyright holders aren\u2019t really worried about anymore, that could be okay.\u201d There\u2019s plenty that \u201cwon\u2019t fly\u201d though, Hasan warns. That includes anything from Viacom, considering their aggressive record with DMCA claims, and anime. \u201cIt\u2019s not fair use or anything like that, it\u2019s literally which copyright holders actually care enough, and pay enough attention, to do something about people watching on-stream. I can\u2019t speak for anime, but I wouldn\u2019t touch it. \u201cIt is literally a case-by-case thing, so it\u2019s so hard to say what\u2019s going to get a strike. Everything is dangerous now. That\u2019s why I accepted the strike when I got one.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m definitely going to be more careful in the future. I\u2019ll probably watch Master Chef again eventually, yeah. But we should be more careful, we should all be more careful. This [his recent DMCA strike] wasn\u2019t a legitimate claim, but it could easily have been \u2014 I got lucky, but I might only get lucky this one time. \u201cI am scared,\u201d he added. \u201cI\u2019ll admit it. There\u2019s no telling who will hand out strikes, and who won\u2019t. That said, if I do get another [strike], I\u2019ll definitely push back.\u201d Related segment begins 6:22:09 in stream below. Hasan may have said he\u2019ll \u201cwait a little while\u201d before watching TV shows on his Twitch streams again but, less than an hour after that claim, he was tuning into new Gordon Ramsay highlights on YouTube again. Pokimane was banned for 48 hours over a DMCA strike for watching Avatar: The Last Airbender. Disguised Toast was also just banned for watching shows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
