In this NeoJoseph podcast episode, we take a closer look at the aftermath of the explosive confrontation that occurred on January 25, 2023, between Tyler Oliveira and Brent Rivera at the Stanley Hotel, the set of the Warner Bros. movie The Shining. This situation sparked a massive backlash against Brent, particularly on social media, with Tyler's YouTube Shorts video on the incident receiving over 1 million likes and 16 million views. In response, Brent uploaded a video filmed inside the hotel that garnered over half a million dislikes and criticism for his disproportionate response to Tyler questioning whether he faked his videos.  However, the situation didn't end there. YouTuber Dumpy, a commentary channel with 242,000 subscribers, recently exposed Brent's attempt to illegally claim fair use videos criticising his actions as copyright infringement. Dumpy made a tweet thread and a subsequent YouTube video, revealing how Brent tried to use YouTube's copyright claim system to his advantage, despite the fact that his claims were rejected by the platform. In the process, Brent violated YouTube's Terms of Service and the law, and as the claim was rejected, YouTube sent the uploader Dumpy Brent's personal details and webform responses as filled in on the copyright strike form for a potential perjury case in the future.
