$115k in 1 Month From Compilations

[Lukas Kade]

This guy David Vlas says he makes compilation videos by re-uploading creative commons videos and claims to have made $115k in a month from adsense. He says you can get monetized by re-uploading creative commons videos and reaction videos. I thought it was not possible to do this? How does he do it then?

I've heard of similar "scams" or bypassing the system. But if that's even close to the truth, that is outrageous.

His channel won't last long because YouTube is cracking down on that kind of content. So Vlas is going to have to find some other scam.

Apparently the rules don't apply to the wealthy since Youtube is making a ton of money from his videos. His main channel David Vlas has over 2 million subscribers. His compilation channel he never reveals so people don't copy him.

Of course he does. He's a self-proclaimed "guru" and is selling a course. (for $300 !!)

He's selling a course that is telling you to create duplicated content. ie doing exactly what YouTube is cracking down on. Read - https://support.google.com/youtube/forum/AAAAiuErobUUxfdrq_tAlM/?hl=en

Yeah I know about the YT terms, but somehow Youtube lets him upload videos on their platform promoting his course teaching the very things they crack down on. It makes no sense to me. Unless compilation videos are considered a transformative work that add value because they are edited?

It seems like if you're big enough, you can get away with dodgy things because YouTube knows if they demonetise you there's going to be a big backlash from fans, so they let it be.

he may not have to think of another scam. Invest his money somewhere and go live in a third world country.
Well no he wouldn't know anyone there and stuff...okay invest the money and become a drug lord on the side and...no no wait, this isn't going anywhere.

I guess he will take it whilst he can (Wouldnt we all?). I hope he is saving some cash though because eventually he will most likely be closed down.
