PewDiePie claims he can\u2019t use his own music due to YouTube\u2019s copyright system YouTube: PewDiePieFelix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg revealed that he can\u2019t use his own music anymore, including his immensely popular \u2018B*tch Lasagna\u2019 song, due to YouTube\u2019s \u201cbackwards\u201d copyright system. After criticizing Japanese anime studio Toei Animation for allegedly issuing more than 150 copyright strikes against a YouTuber Mark Fitzpatrick in a single day, PewDiePie talked about his own experience with the platform\u2019s copyright system. Not only did he describe the system as \u201cbackwards\u201d, but he also claimed that it has allowed a company to claim music on his behalf, even though he has nothing to do with them. The worst part, he revealed, is that he can\u2019t even use some of his own songs anymore. \u201cI\u2019ve had this problem recently where all my music got claimed,\u201d said PewDiePie. He explained that if you click onto his B*tch Lasagna music video, it has been claimed by a company called RepostNetwork on his behalf. \u201cNah!\u201d he scoffed in disgust. \u201cWhat do you f**king mean? You can\u2019t just say it\u2019s on behalf of me. That\u2019s not just stealing. That\u2019s stealing and lying about it. I know I didn\u2019t claim that. I didn\u2019t tell anyone to do that. PewDiePie pointed out that he even included a section in the video\u2019s description saying: \u201cFeel free to use this track. It won\u2019t be claimed.\u201d He explained that he did that because he wanted people to do fun stuff with the song, but now they can\u2019t. \u201cIt pisses me off,\u201d he added. \u201cI don\u2019t support this whole claim music thing. I think it\u2019s completely backwards.\u201d He compared it to how TikTok lets people use songs in clips, which he described as a \u201cpositive\u201d thing. \u201cI don\u2019t know how this was possible that someone can claim my own video and say it\u2019s me. How is that possible? I understand it\u2019s a difficult process. It\u2019s never going to be perfect. But the kind of stuff that happened\u2026 it\u2019s not okay. It\u2019s not the first time, even just recently, PewDiePie has spoken out against YouTube \u2014 the platform he\u2019s called home for over a decade. In November 2021, he slammed YouTube for removing the dislike count feature, saying: \u201cIf it ain\u2019t broke, why fix it?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
