The Last of Us 2 Copyright Scandal | Sony Wages War on the Internet

The recent litany of DMCA abuses perpetrated by Sony and Naughty Dog are sinister in the extreme. They are more than just an escalation of existing abuses, and constitute a new phase in the corporate war on free speech. This is no longer a game of cat-and-mouse. Sony have brought the exterminators and put a sign up on the lawn to announce that they are here.

For the benefit of everyone, if you know a channel or social media account that has been hit with an abusive DMCA strike over the Last of Us 2, please let us all know the details in the comments.

All material used in this video is used transformatively and entirely covered by rules of Fair Use.
The video is Parts 1 & 2 combined: Twice the fun, half the legal fees!



Special thanks to Mario J. Martinez, Jason T Barnes, Dean McGee, Steve, Alcoholistair, RageDMX47, Hector Salamanca, Corvo Fox-Gray, Anna Lovatt, Michael Pearce, ATR-42 and all of my Patreon supporters. Their stoic support humbles me.
