*IMPORANT* Patreon bugging out?

Ever hear the expression let sleeping dogs lie? Patreon has been going without problems for years now. Unless you actually want the studios to start blocking posts on here, why would you bring it up? I mean, if you are enjoying the content, why would you want it to stop?

Brandon Wiesner

They are still allowing people to do that which is a problem.

Victor M

You kidding? Fair use does not mean she can show the whole episode or movie like she does. Not that much grey area.

Victor M

well given that fair use has alot of gray area noone really knows much about what she can and cant post. always i think patroen is in the clear as they dont have the content on there website just links to another where it is.

Yeah and I’m sure one day the studios will come down hard on Patreon, enjoy it while it lasts.

Victor M

Brandon, I am not criticizing Shan as I appreciate her content. That said, her providing entire episodes while getting paid is an easy case for a production company to win if one ever felt like cracking down. A large part of their business model now revolves around streaming rights and many even fight against the 10 minutes used in YouTube reactions. Music producers are much stricter and for that reason most music reactions have to be chopped to hell if they want any chance at making money off of them.

Zach Hershman

Exactly, you are paying the reactor for something they have no rights to sell

Victor M

I don't think that's true. First of all, I think most people here just enjoy watching people's reactions to their favorite shows, that's at least why I'm here. Second of all, it technically isn't free because you're still paying the reactor to have access to the full-length reactions. You could pay for Netflix, or Disney+, or any other streaming service and be able to watch so much more at your own pace.

Luis Garcia

Yeah well i'm certain the majority of people are here for the free episodes.

Victor M

The point of being a reactor is to create reactions to whatever show/movie/song or other type of video they are watching. The content is just that, their reaction. If you are watching reactions to watch a show, then you clearly don't understand the concept of reactions in the first place.

Brandon Wiesner

I only pay the min and I’ve cancelled anyway. Also I’m not the one making over $4000 a month off content I don’t own

Victor M

Interesting how you are a Patron, which means you're paying for her content and yet you're criticizing her for posting that content. I guess someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

Brandon Wiesner

Yeah well might help to not post content you don't own just saying

Victor M

Nevertheless.... maybe it was Cayden James that is to blame....

And yet YouTube, owned by Google, a US company, blocks some videos from US viewers. I know this, because if I use a VPN and choose a Canadian or European server for the IP, I can then view them. Turn it off, going back to my US IP address, they are blocked again.

Walter Alcaraz

All good here (Canada)

Elise Lanciault-Breton

Alright over here

Jason Veevaert

It's working again y'all.. No worries.. She's fine now :)

Tony

Fine here in New Zealand

Malcolm Wolf

Lol it would be. Because if it’s a blocking issue it wouldn’t happen to us. Patreon is a US company

Kevin Tran

Fine here in the USA.

Walter Alcaraz

Seems fine from Canada

ar47yrr4p

suveemi
