Are you serious? They show people react and will infringe reaction videos of people that react. Biggest contradiction in history.

Re: The Fine Bros from Youtube are now attempting to copyright "reaction videos"

They got into detail in the comments. Don't know if it matters, but just giving this detail some of you might have missed.

NOTE: React World allows you to license some of FBE's most popular series (the specific elements and structure of each show), and use the trademarks. With that comes a suite of support that you can read about at the website.

We do not hold a copyright on reaction videos overall. No one can. React World is about licensing FBE's show formats, not just for shows like Kids React, but also others like "Do They Know It?," "Lyric Breakdown," and more. This is similar to TV where you can't make a show substantially similar to "America's Got Talent," but of course you can make a completely different talent competition series. Same deal here.

Welcome to REACT WORLD! We're ready to change the face of entertainment and community - and do it with all of you. Let's change the world together.

NOTE: We do not own the idea of reaction videos nor would we shut down anyone making reaction based content. Of course you can make your own react videos, but REACT WORLD is an opportunity to localize versions of our specific series. This is also a way to create a community on YouTube of like minded producers and fans who want to work together, and benefit from the guidance and resources that we can provide around the specific FBE shows that we are making available through the React World program.

Want to make a substantially similar version of “Do They Know It?” or “Kids React” anywhere in the world (the structural elements - not the idea of showing people reacting to videos) in any language, AND be given the use of our trademarks, a full bible, guidance from the creators of the shows themselves and be affiliated with one the most popular franchises on YouTube? Then license from us. Want to make your own brand new react show that has nothing to do with any of our series? You can do that on your own, and this license is not something you need.

My thoughts: I don't care. I don't watch their stuff.

Re: The Fine Bros from Youtube are now attempting to copyright "reaction videos"

While react always existed, they're the one who made it famous and (rip-offs are big on youtube) people who then profit off them via making similarly structured videos are guilty of theft in some way. So it's understandable, but again the way the script they wrote is presented in their video, being slightly manipulative and selling it as a positive thing doesn't exactly instill comfort in the hearts of legit youtubers looking to earn their livelihood from REACT format in general, so them going overboard and internet just being internet blowing things in proportion as it suites them is also.. well expected.

However the fact they they won't abuse this(they already were coy in their announcement) isn't really guaranteed, and I don't trust them, and they handled it poorly instead of just making best videos. Though imo as far as famous yters go, pewdiepie handles everything the best way, intelligent guy.
