Summary

Daniel says EU Article 13 would not affect his vlog channel because he uses self-filmed, self- made, or copyright-free material. He dismisses creators’ fears, especially commentary channels using movie, game, meme, or music clips, arguing they should create original work. He recommends YouTube’s free Audio Library, supports artists’ control over monetisation, and says opposition petitions cannot change the law.

Insight

He defends his low-risk content model while minimizing threats faced by creators dependent on transformative material.
