aAa beskyldt for tyveri

Den franske organisation Against All Authority er blevet beskyldt for at stjæle videoer fra andre kanaler, blandt andet Youtube.

Angiveligt skulle de videoer der når forsiden på Youtube blive uploaded på aAas kanal på Dailymotion, hvor man har udeladt at nævne den originale person som har lavet videoen. Denne tråd på reddit.com opfordrer folk til at anmelde aAa til Dailymotion for at stjæle content der ikke tilhører dem.

Under tråden på reddit vil du også finde eksempler på hvilke videoer der er blevet lagt ud, uden credit til ejeren.

To andre franske organisationer, Thunderbot (Som blandt andet den tidligere professionelle spiller hyrQbot er indblandet) og Millenium skulle angiveligt gøre det samme. Millenium har blandt andet et hold inde under den prestigefyldte turnering EU LCS.

En tidligere uploader, foxdrop, som har været udsat for aAas tyveri har blandt andet udtalt:

I actually had a problem with aAa stealing my content a while back – the Blitz play (link for those interested). They appear to rip from the original source (most cases Youtube), then rehost to dailymotion and spam it on their pages (facebook, etc), with a new name that suggests it’s their content. No credit is given, of course.

I filed a copyright complaint on both FB and dailymotion and the video was removed pretty promptly from the latter. aAa also removed their post from FB after I sent them a message but never apologised.

Den franske organisation aAa har udtalt følgende til Reddit:

First of all, aAa would like to apologize for being the cause of an unpleasant topic on Reddit. It has been more than 10 years the structure is taking part and contributing in gaming and esport development, and we do not want people from this big community feeling disappointed, whether they are close or not to aAa.

As it has been said in previous comments, this method is not specific to aAa but to many French communitues in order to share videos with people that are not familiar with Reddit.
