Samsung uses DMCA takedown notice to remove GTA V Note7 parody video

20 October 2016
Back when the Note7 fiasco was in full swing, YouTube user HitmanNiko uploaded a video of his GTA V mod, where he modified one of the explosives in the game to look like the Note7. The video did get quite popular on the internet and several others like it were later uploaded.

Sort by:

I've faced similar case but from Sony. In 2020 I made a video about loudspeaker comparison "Sony vs Panasonic". The result is Panasonic is more bassy than my Sony. Then Sony just takedown the video.

But Sony leads the market there. The most overpriced phones even though they don't sell as much as the former two.

                  I must be one of the few people who don't think that video was funny.

                    If samsung could sell 40 million of those in one q they would made huge amount of profit, but like i said, profits only comes when you actually SELL your device.

When you take account that Apple make more money when people buy iphones with more storage, then you know apple make more money with their devices. Your argument is invalid.

                                    Samsung and Google are shameless. Parody is exempted from DMCA so Samsung use its status as the biggest Android OEM to have Google violate the 1st amendment and remove the video. (YouTube is owned by Google in case you don't know)

                                        The uploader maybe was too modest with it, should have made a harsher gameplay video, then Samsung wouldn't dare to complain. It was never was nice people's time on this planet.

                                        Shame on you Sung.
