    Just FYI, this wasn’t clips of porn. This was actual movies with nude scenes.

    Still not entirely sure how I feel about it, but I do agree it’s not the same thing.

      Assuming he did not upload the whole movie or demanded money for those scenes, I don’t see how that’s a good case for the copyright holder. Movie snippets are used all the time, everywhere, including YouTube, without this being much of an issue. The most glaring one there would be the auto detection, which again, is more to prevent actual piracy being shared.

      Edit: Also, why is he getting arrested instead of getting a letter?!

        Part of the (US) definition of fair use is the impact of the use on the original party. Killing their viewership with a review is still fair use because it’s balanced with the public’s right to a review, but I think there’s a legitimate argument that turning their movie into nothing but a sex object, especially systematically like that, does harm that’s not protected.

      Why do you not know how to feel about it?

      To me it’s just clip collection, you could have a collection of all death scenes or car cashes. They’re all just clips from videos people agreed to make for public consumption.

        Because in basically any other scenario it’s obvious sexual harassment, and behavior like that is a big part of the reason a lot of actresses aren’t comfortable doing a role where they’re nude to begin with.

        It’s not porn stars who signed up for that content being made into a highlight. It’s an actress who agreed to do a specific scene as part of a movie being treated like they’re doing porn.

      Why does that matter? To a horny enough 14 year old there is no difference.
