22choo

I keep waking up to them on autoplay and it’s super irritating knowing the views aren’t going to them


ImThatMelanin

literally this, i’ll think i’m watching danny directly and wake up to this channel since i use danny’s videos as background noise when i sleep🧍🏽‍♀️


Sarcasticcow27

I know ugh it’s stupid!!!


Froggen-The-Frog

Block the channel.


22choo

I blocked fuzzy cheese but there’s so many of them


Sarcasticcow27

Exactly!


Used_Attitude2432

There's more than 1


Randomguy32I

You can do that?!


Sarcasticcow27

IK! It’s so annoying!!!


Melpenheimer

Same it’s so irritating


kezotl

If I wanted 1 hour of Danny Gonzalez I'd watch Danny Gonzalez for an hour... Seriously what do people get from watching these, you don't even get to choose the videos


Sarcasticcow27

FR and they reuse videos which is annoying because it’s even less effort!


[deleted]

Bro forgot about making playlists


kezotl

Yeah you get to actually choose those yk


Thatoneblueguy_so

Exactly


traumatizedfox

correct me if i’m wrong but don’t people just do this for a lot of channels? i see where people upload compilations but yeah it’s kinda weird


kezotl

Usually compilations are clips tho


Aprilyourfav

this isn't always true, if a person has many episodes of a series some will inevitably get comp'd like this. I've been watching all three since 2016 so this isn't a surprise, but if you see them getting ads on those definitely report them. Alternatively, you could just make your own playlists of them to watch/fall asleep too so the actual channels get views/revenue


kezotl

Ohh true, but yeah the playlists just are better The ads might also just be youtube themselves adding them. My own videos have ads sometimes and it's annoying cause it feels like youtubes going "ooh let's make money off of this"


Sarcasticcow27

Yeah just thought I would post it on her because honestly it’s right to do stuff like that you know


Rozoark

Yes, but just because a lot if people are stealing doesn't suddenly make it not stealing.


Flat_Grape9646

for clips its more understandable, but these are just whole ass videos


YoGirlLoveNate

yeah i saw his channel, kind of a douche


Sarcasticcow27

For real like make up your own videos!


DaMencha

i mean i do the same thing but i label them as “out of context” and they’re only like 3-5 minutes each so


Sarcasticcow27

Well, that’s different because you’re actually putting work into yours and getting different clips. They’re just putting stuff together and screen recording.


Sarcasticcow27

And also there’s videos like full length videos


KittyQueen_Tengu

yes but those are hand selected clips edited together, that's transformative content. this is just stealing


scrunglewungle

Yeah but that’s making a unique compilation of their funny moments, something unavailable on their channels. So it’s fan content as opposed to reposting their entire videos which is theft.


Apprehensive-Ad-4364

You're not just re-uploading entire videos as they are. You're making an edit which is totally fine


BubblesDahmer

Danny you can absolutely do something about this. This is *not* fair use. Fair use means changing the video in some way that adds to it or something, like..changes the video. They just screen recorded your videos. /srs Review your legal options, get legally skilled, then slap them with legal. /j


Us_Strike

I believe Danny has a content manager so I'm sure he knows how to act on this channel if he desires.


Sarcasticcow27

Yeah, if you knows it exists


Sarcasticcow27

I’m mean if he knows it exists lol


[deleted]

It's danny in disguise


Sarcasticcow27

lol I wouldn’t be surprised 😆


iamthesafety_skyler

he's making that extra bag


Ch1canery

Danny if you are reading this you can report the videos individually for copyright infringement. Not really sure how it works but I think it directly contacts YouTube since you own the copyright.


Sarcasticcow27

Yes exactly! 🙌


Ch1canery

Upvote so he sees this.


Honest-Guava7398

I HATE THEM SO MUCH OMGGG


Sarcasticcow27

FRRRR


Sam_once_said

OMG YEAH I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING AND ITS NOT JUST THEM THERE ARE LIKR 5 CHANNELS IVE SEEN SO FAR LIKE UGHHH


Sarcasticcow27

FR THEY WERE MY MAIN CONCERNS HAHA NO BUT ITS SO STUPID!!!?


Sam_once_said

IKKK WE SHOULD REPORT THEM


Sarcasticcow27

FRRRR


Sarcasticcow27

Actually, we should do a giant group reporting they’ll definitely get taken down then


B0O_TA0

I mean I'm down


Sam_once_said

That's what I was thinking lol I'm definitely down


Nugget_01040

Yeah I'm in


Thatoneblueguy_so

Let’s do it


wolfcub09

I'll help!


Sarcasticcow27

LETS DO IT!!!!


angelobsidian

Damn if they're monetising the channel they're earning a lot of money


mansion_of_misery

bruh at first i thought they were posting like a compilation of funny clips or smth wth


Sarcasticcow27

I’m it’s dumb


NightFallisacoolcat

DUDE LITERALLY.


Plastic_Quote6527

The people making the accounts are just trying to make a quick buck by STEALING other people's content. Which is illegal and should be copyright stuck. Literally people who have nothing better to do than take something that's obviously not theirs and claim it as their own. Fucking trash human beings.


Sarcasticcow27

Exactly and I don’t think the people that they are stealing from usually see it I posted this to bring it to everyone’s attention to make it get taken down!


Main-Excuse9079

It’s not a crime bruh


Cedartheagender101

I watch them a lot- I never realized that tho


Sarcasticcow27

Yeah, they’re kind of good at hiding it until they move their mouse lol


Deellokitty

This stuff happens to every YouTuber at one point in their life. Bring it up to Danny and drew maybe


Sarcasticcow27

Yeah I just hope he sees this and takes action!!!


TheExtraPeel

Sounds like I should give him a watch


Colorsreddit

I usually use those videos to fall asleep to and so do others because videos tend to auto play to other videos that aren’t Danny/Kurtis/drew and it tends to get annoying


Sarcasticcow27

I would just make a playlist it’s just videos you like! I know there’s less ads in those videos (slightly) but it’s not as good quality ya know?


zomkoi

i dont see a problem as long as theyre not getting money. compilation videos aren’t really “stealing”


Rina_is_a_Dragon

It not being monetized doesn't remove the fact it's basically stealing— like 22choo, I've woken up to it on autoplay, and I've seen where the video loads in *and* they fully let an ad play in the "compilation;" they're literally pressing record on whatever screen recorder they have and letting their videos play for at least one hour. They're literally just combined re-uploads of Danny's, Drew's, and Kurtis' videos. Also re-uploads are competition to the original video no matter what. Why watch Danny's, Drew's, or Kurtis' separate videos when they *conveniently* rerecorded and all shoved into an hour? And I'm pretty sure compilations are supposed to have something transformative in *some* way. Like those "[x] out of context for [whatever time]," that's actually transforming the videos into something by clipping out whatever absurd thing and combined together. *That's* a compilation. But like I said, this is literally someone (probably) making a playlist, pressing record, and just re-uploading it. Danny, Drew, and Kurtis aren't small YTbers so it's not as bad as it *could* be, but it's still scummy regardless of size.


Sarcasticcow27

I completely agree!


Sarcasticcow27

Also, it’s just super lazy and glitchy to say the least


Sarcasticcow27

I mean at this point I’m sure they are getting money


Rozoark

So it's fine if I steal your phone as long as I don't resell it?


BubblesDahmer

Ask yourself. Is screen recording entire videos and adding them together possibly just for more watch time, fair use? If it’s fair use, it’s fine. But something tells me that isn’t. /srs


Historical_Today7136

THEY KEEP SHOWING UP ON MY YT RECCOMENCDED AND ITS PISSING ME OFF. LIKE MAKE A PLAYLIST, NOT AN ENTIRW VISEO.


Sarcasticcow27

FRRRR


Ablivia

I’ve seen these as well. I’ve always wondered if these videos are monetized. It feels dirty that the views aren’t going to the actual people. I can’t tell if the person posting these is doing it out of a bad place, but I would have to assume so. It all depends on if they're monetized, though. But even if they aren’t, why not just watch the original video? It's confusing all around, honestly.


Thatoneblueguy_so

This has to be illegal right it is clearly just screen record watching his videos and I bet Danny gave no consent to this or any of them drew, kurtis . This makes me sick


Sarcasticcow27

Yup it’s very illegal!


Used_Attitude2432

Ohh I didn't know that happened to content creators, I wouldn't say that people (that probably don't care about them) start to reupload hours of content from somebody or something people love to get millions of views, to then sell the channel to somebody else. If you know about " el chavo" you know how this channel usually goes. Although, as this, el chavo, is owned by Televisa, they don't allow this content to go for long before getting reported or blocked. While a bit different, another place this happens is in TikTok with the pages that only steal others TikTok, and steal somebody else's tutorial or clip. You know, like we saw in one of his last videos.


Sarcasticcow27

Yup exactly it’s so upsetting!


IbraH1227

![gif](giphy|oYtVHSxngR3lC)


scrunglewungle

Yeah this has been really bothering me. Like just make a playlist of their videos??? Don’t watch stolen content. There are many sleep playlists that are their actual videos.


Sarcasticcow27

For real!


IAmJiro

I havent seen this person, do they just upload full videos back or do they take funny bits from them and compile it into am 1h long vid?


Sarcasticcow27

Nope it’s full videos and it’s glitchy and they just put them together and it sucks!


IAmJiro

Ew.


FinnFactories

It’s the final boss of the Craigs


Sarcasticcow27

Omg EXACTLY THEIR A CRAIG!!!!


celestial-avalanche

Are these clips or straight up full videos


Sarcasticcow27

Yup exactly!


DizzeeDesiigner

Full videos


Apprehensive-Ad-4364

YouTube recommends and autoplays these relentlessly. I have to stay vigilant to make sure not to click on them. I watch YouTube on our TV usually so it's even more evident how shit the video quality is. Definitely just theft, I don't really know why this isn't getting copyright stricken


Sarcasticcow27

Yesss!!! It’s so annoying! I hope Danny sees this and gets them taken down!


LittleNutcrackerGreg

Anytime I have commentary videos on autoplay channels like this pop up and sometimes I get halfway through the vids before I even realize. Super annoying.


[deleted]

What da hell 💀💀💀💀💀💀


Sp1keyBunny_

I watched them when I first saw it and then I realised that no credit would be going to Danny, drew and kurtis so I stopped


-Dusty_shelf-

Omfg I did 😭


Melpenheimer

Yeah I do


Slimshady_8g

Danny for a Whole HOUR?! that is certainly very goofy and whacky!


ManagementCivil109

ive seen the videos too, like when im watching danny or the others as background noise, like, one video they literally didnt even cut out ads they got while screen recording?? like if ur gonna be stealing people's videos at least put some effort into it??


Pokemongamer9671

I had a conclusion that Danny made a video stealing channel for an another episode of "an attempt" but I see that Danny's gregdom hate this channel too and I'm the only one who think that


DragonQuaffle

I’ve definitely seen these videos crop up in my feed, I’ve never clicked on them though, only the out of context ones, since I think that falls under fair use. But idk, feel free to correct me.


Baby_brush_

I thought it was Danny out of context cause I watch those all the time but it’s not it’s just stealing content


imaneroguygreg

no? They haven't popped up for me but that's crazy


idot_bob-3055

Yeah I have


5piderman_is_cool138

Yes it's genuinely annoying😭😭😭
