Hacking /!\WARNING/!\ Youtube + SX OS Video = Strike

[Captain_N]

Its not even illegal to use the sxos and dongle. Therefore, the videos should not be removed. The exploit should not be there in the first place. Thats to bad the genie is out of the bottle. Miiverse is down so Princess Peach's Gestapo has nothing better to do.
SO why have Nintendo not gone after the SX creators. If talking about it gets your videos pulled then making money should be a bigger offence.....

How about we fight back, create a bunch of google accounts and reupload his videos en masse.

Kind of obvious WHY they do it, i mean it's a tool used for piracy, specifically to pirate THEIR console. I this specific case it's actually very unclear if free use applies or not

It's not at all "unclear" if talking about modifying a product you own is legal or not. It is.

Depends on the KIND of modification, if the modification itself is legal or not. Fair Use law is one of the most unclear law in existance

So in the end it was Nintendo that used BAF to strike the video down

Yikes. Sadly, I'm not sure if you're allowed to do anything about it because they are indeed in the right.

If you don't show any pirated content, I don't think Nintendo is in their right to do anything as I don't think anyone signed a contract saying that they can't show nintendo stuff customized\hacked.

If we break their TOS we are not breaking youtube rules or law...

ps: Its my opinion...

Yeas, but fair use doesn't even apply if your'e just making a video of installing/running/discussing homebrew or mods. Well, I guess you could censor the Ninty logo on boot.

SXOS gets you banned from YouTube as well? Jeez where will they stop.

Not worth it.

Claim it back. What Nintendo is doing is against the law and they think again that they're above the law. Fuck them

This, claim the video back, but also (if you are a youtuber) upload a new video talking about how nintendo is abusing the copyright tools to attack the homebrew community and censor/shutdown small channels. Maybe some bad PR everywhere will make them think a bit.

Was watching Tech James' video about custom Switch themes and it appears N is after him, too! @0:20

Spoiler

He has all kinds of informative videos.

It's funny how my retroNX video has been up on YouTube the whole time. Technically in America, jailbreaking phones is legal, Nintendo Switch is no different. Some people on here may believe otherwise but there also from other countries aswell, I'd say Nintendo still believes in archaic laws from the 100 years ago, so does Japan as a whole.


Here's my video.

Hey everyone so I received another strike 2 days ago and my channel was deleted... and many others related to switch hacking
BUT, today I saw that a strike has been removed from my channel, so all my videos are here and I can upload more. Btw all the channel that were deleted are here again, I don't what nintendo did (because I never asked for strike removal) but that's a good thing

Its could be the fact that Nintendo is just abusing the video take downs and Youtube is actually doing something about it. Tech James and Skullator recently got hit with 2 strikes and those guys cover all hackable consoles

As I understand it, phones have an explicit exception in the DMCA, while video game consoles do not.

Again not that legality matters at all for Youtube strikes.
