I'm in the first hour of this video. It's about how YouTube / influencers plagiarize / straight up stealing works from others.

So far, in the first hour, hbomberguy has covered

Filip Miucin, (ex-IGN plagiarizer)
Newt (wrote for Cinemassacre? I don't follow cinemassacre stuff),
Illuminaughtii (I've never heard of this person before, apparently she pivoted from making bigoted content to left leaning stuff??)

It’s a good video. He also brings up the internet historian and another vlogger I’m not familiar with. Internet historian surprised me.

It’s rather blatant. Then rather than face the music, these people go to great lengths to deceive people about it. I think it would help their reputation at this point if they came out, accepted, then never plagiarize again. But, who knows. Some of them have entire careers on it.

Also, illuminaughtii just chased trends till something caught on. I thought her content was good until it came out that she stole most/all her content either from other people, or, from her own writers lol she’s known for being a piece of shit and not paying her staff as well, so I’m not entirely surprised she doesn’t have good staff pointing out the obvious plagiarism.
