Because they're false DMCA Claims made by 1 person. The first 2 DMCA claims were made by Superhound and I'm 99% sure that this latest one was also made by him. So it's not so much they're soft on him right now, but that the claims weren't legitimate.
Twitch fears the King of Hate.
Call me a Phil Hater but I don't see any of Twitch's higher-ups looking at this scenario and thinking "Uh oh, one of our streamers is in trouble! We've gotta do something!". He's too small-time for that. Best case scenario is an IP ban against Superhound.
No, i think you're right, Phil is really not a jewel in the twitch crown, they prolly are like "oh no this fucking idiot again" every time he attempts to contact them, but at some they must realize that if its this easily abuse-able then people will eventually begin to build machine-gun DMCA bots to hit multiple streamers both small and big just to fuck with them. I think Phil is the first example of what will become very common in the future where A-logs will just set up a DMCA bot to perma ban any streamer they dislike just because its that easy
I agree, I don't think Phil is getting any special treatment here. I just think their system is functioning as intended, so the illegitimate claims were lifted after a counter notification was reviewed by twitch staff. I highly doubt that they will even ban Superhound unless he gets really obnoxious and obvious by spamming claims every day.
This is DSP, he's going to luck his way into Twitch's CEO issuing a public apology and paying a senator to repeal the DMCA
benefit of a gout: he meant "far worse" as in "most blatantly false".
Wait, I checked Superhound's Twitter and there's been no new tweets. Where did you get this info from?
Curse dropped a lot of people, it wasn't until some people on twitter posted their copy paste reason as to why they realised it was happening to a lot of them.
I'm just speculating at this point. It's how last time went.
