I used to watch illuminaughti but don’t want to watch a 4 hour video about youtube plagiarism to find out what happened. Can you give me a quick summary?
Multiple times she made videos that were just word-for-word reading out the transcript of a documentary, even going so far as using the documentary footage as background imagery, without crediting the original at all. She also avoided youtube copyright detection by putting filters over such footage. Honestly I’m less upset about the plagiarism (which is bad, no doubt) and more just at the outright clownishness of literally copy-pasting somebody else’s work.

That’s wild
Using a pirate link as a source from one of the documentaries is pretty based tho.
