Popular Post Otis Big Posted November 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 3, 2020 Idk. I’m still skeptical. Warner could have had it taken down over the name and logo that were used in the video itself (not just the name in the title) hope I’m wrong 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redundantuserjinxboy Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 they could have taken it down because maybe it used drum snippets or something from another green day song 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jrem Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 If by chance it is actually a Green Day song, then maybe The Church Of Lushotology is the next Green Day album, while Money Money 2020 part 2 is the next Network album. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StillBreathing Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 So what’re the chances of the album being released tomorrow? Being Election Day and all... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAPPY ZOMBIE UNICORN Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Dunno, Warner can take down videos just because they have the name of an actual band AND of one of their songs, so if they pretend to be an actual song which they are not. We know this for sure, if you remember the whole “fake Bang Bang videos” episode before the Bang Bang release. What I don’t know is if they can take that down only for the use of The Network name (so if the song title and content of course is fake), or for the Lushotology image (that would be very weird, not even sure if that image is copyrighted, and it’s anyway used in many unofficial videos on YT). I would still be very very very surprised if those are not the Network for how the song sounds tho. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I would not be that certain about registration. But maybe this is just bullshit overthinking, not entirely sure how these copyright claims are handled nowadays on YT.

green day is Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Also I'm trying to find the trademark for it but I'm having trouble. It's not under a search for "lushotology". But to be fair I can't find The Network's trademark either. But I can find FBHT and ofc GD. Not sure why this is. Also, fun fact, Green Day lists their "first use in commerce" of that name as 1989-04-03, while the TM was originally filed April 1994. No idea the exact significance of that date as no shows on setlist.fm correspond to it. 18 minutes ago, HAPPY ROOTING UNICORN said: By copyrighted I meant registered by Warner, cause I think a claim to YT would not be that straight forward otherwise.

A YT claim is as simple as filling out a form. You could do it rn. It's perjury if you're not who you claim to be, but people commit perjury sometimes. I've had it happen to me lmao I'm as certain as you can be that they have it registered with the copyright office. 99.99999% certainty. Trademark slightly less likely but still much more probable than not. Big companies don't fuck around protecting their brand, there is no "this isn't important enough". Everything is registered by default, no matter how small. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CannibalRat Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 If the The Ultimate Test is fake, I can see the reasoning behind WMG taking the videos down being that it was taking too much attention away from the real Network promotions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's fake then they'd have no grounds to take it down (at least in videos *not* otherwise containing copyrighted imagery, none of which I've seen taken down so far). It's not a copyright violation to sound like Billie/GD in immaterial ways. Claiming to be GD/Network is a dissemination of trademark issue, but that's not within the scope of a DMCA not something Youtube gets involved in. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post kripack Posted November 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 3, 2020 I remember at the start of revrad era, when we just found out the name of the lead single - Bang Bang, somebody did an acoustic song about how he was banging someone's mom and called the youtube video Green Day - Bang Bang. It was taked down by warner... 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was taked down by warner... That was probably Youtube's algorithm, since everything related to Bang Bang was getting nuked. Which isn't legal but what are you gonna do. As opposed to here where only one video got stricken, which is definitely manual (although not necessarily actually from Warner). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PluckyJokerhead Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Yeah the other video of TUT, which did not feature the CoL logo, was also taken down. So the only grounds for it being removed would be either it being copyrighted material or the name 'The Network' being used. And surely two bands can have the same name? Not sure on that one, but certainly seems a thin base for taking it down. I am however fairly certain that it's incredibly easy to DMCA content on YouTube, and it's possible that Warner just know nobody would bother fighting it. I might upload the track with nothing related in the title and no video and see if it gets content id'd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only two (reasonable) scenarios are that Warner took it down because the audio is copyrighted, or someone else took it down and put Warner's name cause that's actually really easy to do. Warner might have taken it down illegitimately knowing there's no consequences but idk enough about their track record to say. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just fiddled with the YouTube DMCA stuff a bit and tried to take down my own video, and it's impossible to issue a takedown request based on a name being used by anyone else. Use of copyrighted logo is possible but the other video of the song didn't include that. So yeah it's either Warner taking it down because they own it or somebody else claiming to be Warner trying to mess with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 They took down Bang Bang (Your Mom) for copyright reasons... that said, if anyone has saved TUT and wouldn’t mind sharing with me, I’d be thankful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post dannygreen Posted November 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 3, 2020 Could TUT maybe be something like what happened to 21st Century breakdown but did it on purpose this time?

Popular Post Boobooo Posted November 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 3, 2020 I do find it amusing that all you TUT deniers were saying "if it was real Warner would have taken it down with a copyright claim", and now that has actually happened the excuse has changed to "they've only taken it down with a copyright claim because of the logo or, or, or.. something... yeah..." Us believers are going to be so smug when this eventually drops! 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
