web This YouTube channel has been violating the service's Duplicate Content Policy -- 10 times!

Hey guys, I only came back for a short visit just to show you guys something that must be dealt with.

According to the podcast "YouTube Duplicate Content vs. Repeatable Content", we know that YouTube doesn't allow two versions of the same video uploaded onto the same channel.

Despite that, I found at least TWENTY videos from one SINGLE channel that are continuously violating this rule. By the looks of it, the exact same copies of TEN videos from this one channel were uploaded at least TWICE, all of them deliberately overriding YouTube's policy, which is equal to TEN SEVERE VIOLATIONS on YouTube! I don't know why this channel keeps on doing this, but I am absolutely positive this is beyond illegal. As additional proof, I also have all the links to all 20 videos.

What can we do to stop this channel from continuing this unlawful activity? I don't care what kind of channel it is, be it a kids' channel or whatever; exact same videos on same channels are equally illegal.

By the way, I posted the topic here since I believe the subject of it focuses on YouTube rather than My Little Pony itself.

This is not something MLP Forums is equipped to deal with let alone has any reason to deal with. Let’s not involve people in something they shouldn’t be involved in. YouTube needs to handle this.

Locking.
