Dramacow FineBros - Copyrighting React Videos Controversy, the Ongoing Shitstorm, Sadly Increasing Subs

[creamyfanta]

Aw i love boogie. He didn't do anything bad did he?

Though I've never watched a reaction video, the fucking banners and links all over social media and YouTube is as annoying as a Jewish girlfriend who broke a nail. This shit needs to end and these assholes need to die off.

If only we could get pewdiepie next...

Fine Bros are losing something like 10 to 15 subs a second at this point. I wonder how long until they just go into massive damage control mode?

Given their stupidity at this point, it would not amaze me if they actually try to sue/DMCA the people doing reaction videos to their moronic idea.

Also they really couldn't be more stereotypically Jewish here without actually growing beards and stroking them while mumbling "oy vey the goyim know."

I think the most hilarious thing is how optimistic they were in the original video, saying how in the years to come they'd hope to look back at the uploading of the video as a momentous occasion. They way they spoke about making reaction videos like they had contributed something worthwhile and incredible for society makes me quite happy that they're receiving all this backlash right now. They decided to be even more greedy than already with their massively stupid money making business and now it's backfiring and I have to admit it's quite fun to watch.

What gets me most is that these horrible videos seem to be made for a younger crowd (at least younger than me) who aren't always picky about their internet content or where it came from. So to have these kids basically yank the carpet out from them is a big surprise and a pleasant one too.

I think what they meant to say was that they could offer people to be endorsed by these guys when making a reaction video, so more people would watch the video in exchange for splitting the profits. They just explained it horrendously.

I hope they get cancer

Who would want to be sponsored by these protozoans?

React Around The World is not a Pyramid Scheme. It's a Three Sided Vertically Angular Path To Financial Success!

Soon, I assume. With the rate they keep losing their subscribers (Here's hoping they get to less than 10 million by the end of the week). They're totally going to try and spin it into some stupid, contrived thing and try to cover their asses over the previous statement they made.

LOL live youtube stream of subscriber countdown

edit:
and the number of people watching this live LOL

 

[Doc Cassidy]

I would support this 100% if they were restricting access to reaction gifs. Think of how much that would improve the internet

 

[Red_Rager]

Drama Alert did some videos on them

There is a lot of salt generated by this
MudaneMatt's React video doing a deconstruction of this bullshit

An interesting tibit I learned is they got butthurt over Ellen DeGeneres doing a kids react to old technology without going through them.

AlphaOmega's Rant

8bit Eric's Rant pointing out their hypocrisy

Asalieri's Parody of them

A few things from the #UnSubTheFineBros



As of the time this post was made they are down to
13,984,478 (and down by the time I hit post reply)

I never liked The Fine Bros. The way they treated Lea from Kids React always made me feel uneasy.

 

[Piga Dgrifm]

Let's pray that this means their shit videos won't constantly be recommended to you anymore.

 

[Trans Fat 41g]

I honestly hope there is a painful emotional breakdown and complete fallout between Fine Brothers, after the shit storm passes.

And at least one going to prison for fraud.

 

[Spellskite]

Yeah, for anyone feeling any sympathy towards these idiots:


That they had no idea such a shitty way of announcing this copyright garbage would blow up in their face shows off just how profoundly arrogant they are.

I agree to an extent the fact does remain that they are currently trying to trademark the word 'react.' They confirmed that in their update video. Even if they're right in saying they just don't want someone else to do it and for them to lose their channel that combined with this licensing concept seems pretty suspicious.

That and pedos.

If they hadn't put together a video that sounded like they just had the idea, then this wouldn't have happened. Maybe they can post up "Marketing Team Reacts to Subscriber Drop" to appease the bloodthirsty crowds.
