What Ben said but not only that, it was also based on what they had done in the past and what they were actually doing while this was ongoing. They said that “oh no, this doesnt mean we will suddenly start issuing takedown requests against any and all reaction videos”, meanwhile thats exactly what they were doing. Fullscreen, on behalf of TFB, were issuing takedown requests against reaction videos that werent even remotely similar to TFB’s format or used any of their graphics or music or whatever, but simply because they had react in the title and/or simply because they were reaction videos. They also issued copyright claims against plenty of videos that were responding to their announcement in a negative way (until this whole thing became just too big, that is, then they gave up on that), and they were also censoring comments etc on their videos where anyone were criticising or asking questions theyd rather not answer in regards to all of this.

“We hope actions will speak louder than words going forward”. They did, Fine Brothers; your actions throughout this already spoke louder than your blankfaced lies.
