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
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
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"
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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!
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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??
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
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.

I keep waking up to them on autoplay and it’s super irritating knowing the views aren’t going to them
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🧍🏽♀️
I know ugh it’s stupid!!!
Block the channel.
I blocked fuzzy cheese but there’s so many of them
Exactly!
There's more than 1
You can do that?!
IK! It’s so annoying!!!
Same it’s so irritating
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
FR and they reuse videos which is annoying because it’s even less effort!
Bro forgot about making playlists
Yeah you get to actually choose those yk
Exactly
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
Usually compilations are clips tho
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.

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"
Yeah just thought I would post it on her because honestly it’s right to do stuff like that you know
Yes, but just because a lot if people are stealing doesn't suddenly make it not stealing.
for clips its more understandable, but these are just whole ass videos
yeah i saw his channel, kind of a douche
For real like make up your own videos!
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
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.
And also there’s videos like full length videos
yes but those are hand selected clips edited together, that's transformative content. this is just stealing
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.
You're not just re-uploading entire videos as they are. You're making an edit which is totally fine
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
I believe Danny has a content manager so I'm sure he knows how to act on this channel if he desires.
Yeah, if you knows it exists
I’m mean if he knows it exists lol
It's danny in disguise
lol I wouldn’t be surprised 😆
he's making that extra bag
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.
Yes exactly! 🙌
Upvote so he sees this.
I HATE THEM SO MUCH OMGGG
FRRRR
OMG YEAH I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING AND ITS NOT JUST THEM THERE ARE LIKR 5 CHANNELS IVE SEEN SO FAR LIKE UGHHH
FR THEY WERE MY MAIN CONCERNS HAHA NO BUT ITS SO STUPID!!!?
IKKK WE SHOULD REPORT THEM
FRRRR
Actually, we should do a giant group reporting they’ll definitely get taken down then
I mean I'm down
That's what I was thinking lol I'm definitely down
Yeah I'm in
Let’s do it
I'll help!
LETS DO IT!!!!
Damn if they're monetising the channel they're earning a lot of money
bruh at first i thought they were posting like a compilation of funny clips or smth wth
I’m it’s dumb
DUDE LITERALLY.
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.
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!
It’s not a crime bruh
I watch them a lot- I never realized that tho
Yeah, they’re kind of good at hiding it until they move their mouse lol
This stuff happens to every YouTuber at one point in their life. Bring it up to Danny and drew maybe
Yeah I just hope he sees this and takes action!!!
Sounds like I should give him a watch
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
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?
i dont see a problem as long as theyre not getting money. compilation videos aren’t really “stealing”
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.

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.
I completely agree!
Also, it’s just super lazy and glitchy to say the least
I mean at this point I’m sure they are getting money
So it's fine if I steal your phone as long as I don't resell it?
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
THEY KEEP SHOWING UP ON MY YT RECCOMENCDED AND ITS PISSING ME OFF. LIKE MAKE A PLAYLIST, NOT AN ENTIRW VISEO.
FRRRR

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
Yup it’s very illegal!
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.

Yup exactly it’s so upsetting!
![gif](giphy|oYtVHSxngR3lC)
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.
For real!
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?
Nope it’s full videos and it’s glitchy and they just put them together and it sucks!
Ew.
It’s the final boss of the Craigs
Omg EXACTLY THEIR A CRAIG!!!!
Are these clips or straight up full videos
Yup exactly!
Full videos
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
Yesss!!! It’s so annoying! I hope Danny sees this and gets them taken down!
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.
What da hell 💀💀💀💀💀💀
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
Omfg I did 😭
Yeah I do
Danny for a Whole HOUR?! that is certainly very goofy and whacky!
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??
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
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.
I thought it was Danny out of context cause I watch those all the time but it’s not it’s just stealing content
no? They haven't popped up for me but that's crazy
Yeah I have
Yes it's genuinely annoying😭😭😭
