Hello YTers!

I've got a community strike on the week (which I think is unfair). I appealed it on the week.
Does anybody knows how long does YT take to review my appeal?

For those who are wondering what was the content on my videos: The community strike was applied on 3 videos. On the 3 of them I show people how to connect to a U.S. VPN in order to access Netflix outside U.S. In the videos I showed people how to use 100% legal VPN software. There was commentary in all time. (In less nerdy words: I showed people how to connect to Internet from U.S. in order to access Netflix outside U.S.)

The software that I used on these videos, were:

  • Hotspot Shield. (Which I've got a deal with them after one the videos went viral)
  • Spotflux.
  • Connectify.

Extra question: Do you guys think that content would violate the community guideline?

The channel were I've got the strike is: "AlambrixIT" in case you guys are wondering.


Thanks for your time! :)
 
Yeah... the community strike on those videos is fair, sorry to say. Doesn't matter at all if the VPN software is legal, it's how you're showing people to use it. It's like getting a community strike for showing people how to download movies/tv shows illegally via uTorrent and saying it's unfair. UTorrent is legal software doesn't mean downloading tv shows and movies is. You're best off not posting that kind of stuff on YouTube.
 
Why should it be illegal?

The people are still paying for their Netflix accounts, companies are still getting revenue for all that streaming. It's not like torrents, where companies are losing revenue because of that.

I know it's stupid, I would love to use Netflix here in Aus but can't. But it's how the company works, it may not be entirely illegal as much as it is against the companies policy. Being in Australia, I know if we do get netflix down here, it will be overpriced as usual, which is why they put these types of restrictions on, not just for Aus but for other regions. It's also to do with ratings, some shows might not be allowed to show in certain regions and by using a VPN they wouldn't be able to tell. It's funny though, Australia was like the top country for piracy of TV shows and what's more ironic is that a good majority of those people would have paid if the bloody shows were actually available here lol

God damn weird laws! lol!

I'm sure Netflix will reach Australia in the next 2-3 years, they are expanding very well. So, save some money for Netflix :)

Netflix does not have worldwide licences for the content they don't show worldwide..
 
Netflix should either adapt and make themselves available for other countries, or go suck balls. It's like they don't realize the extra money they could be making.

I'm sure they know...

If they don't have the license to distribute worldwide then they can't...

Just like online players for TV stations in the UK arn't available for people in the US.
