>On November 22nd, Richard C. Meyers uploaded a video to his YouTube channel, Diversity & Comics, explaining that his channel was being targeted for DMCA strikes by comic book creators who have vocally expressed their dislike for both ComicsGate and Meyers himself:
>According to Meyers, Kwanza Osajyefo was the first to issue a DMCA strike against Meyers’ channel. This was due to Meyers showing of interiors from Osajyefo’s upcoming title BLACK AF, which at the time was not publicly released yet. Meyers accepted his fault, took down the video, and allowed the DMCA strike to remain against his channel.
>The second strike against his channel came from Magdalene Visaggio (Eternity Girl) as she issued a strike against a one-year old video that Meyers had uploaded entitled “Comic Book Hangout.” In the video, Meyers allegedly discussed one of Visaggio’s books (as the video has since been taken down, BiC is unable to independently verify which book Meyers was discussing). The video had since been taken down, but the DMCA strike remained.
>YouTube uses a copyright policing system based on the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. As such, when YouTube identifies a DMCA violation, it will issue a warning and takedown notice to the channel owner of the offending content, adding a ‘strike’ to a channel. If three strikes are issued, a user’s channel and library of videos are deleted, as well as a ban on the user from creating a new YouTube channel.
