copyright claim? What kind of stupid shit- song covers are absolutely allowed and considered transformative content.

That said, I know exactly what this is...
Youtube does not care for its creators, and if anyone files a claim they give them your money first (or delete your video first), and only investigates the claim later if anyone appeals.
But to appeal you apparently (from what I heard) need to go through a legal process where you have to prove your identity, and apparently this is forwarded to the claimant. So people use frivolous copyright and dmca claims to get the identity of (and often dox) various anonymous creators on youtube, such as vtubers or the like. Or so I have seen ppl say (who went on to say that the vtuber in their example were lucky because they had an agency that shielded their identity, as it allowed the corporation's legal identity to be used, rather than the individuals).

So whoever did this is clearly just trying to force her to out herself?

edit: found the source! Or maybe not? this one says it was twitter outrage that solved it, not agencies. But I suppose it is just rampant enough there are more than one~

TBF, in this case it isn't a cover. She is posing as the real idol. If the company owns the image of the idol then it's fairly simple if the idol owned it the I have no idea how it would go

You are allowed to cosplay while singing your covers, no law against that. And while I agree that there should be laws to protect every individuals likeness and identity, that does not exist in most countries, and even where it does, it is not "copyright". (and I do not remember if she ever actually claimed to be the dead girl for real, and not just as a disrespectful persona. But either way, I doubt it would be considered identity theft simply because the person is dead - meaning everyone already knows it is not really that identity and it can be assumed everyone understands it is an act + dead people tend to lose their rights in most countries (be that identity, privacy, property or slander. But some of those do tend to transfer to family members as part of inheritance processes))

ps: The likeness of a vtuber would be considered copyright. but this is not that.

Hase Himawari-chan, the cute and ideal idol doing some kidnapping :wooow:

Why does she have her student ID card? Siblings (so she can fake her face)? Stalker or even murderer? So many questions :nyoron:

If I remember correctly, Japan doesn't have copyright laws (at least not like we have in America) so theyre super strict and strike happy.
