YouTube videos actually have transcripts now.

If I recall correctly, the copyright holders can decide what they want to happen automatically.

The automatic options are something like:

• Disable all ads.
• Enable ads (if disabled) and take all (?) money.
• Mute/remove the infringing content.

They can also do stuff like issue copyright strikes but I believe that those have to be done manually since they can be so destructive to creators.

Tom Scott made a really good video about how copyright works in general and how it works on YouTube, I highly recommend it. https://youtu.be/1Jwo5qc78QU

Imagine thinking anything that's pretty much 300 years old is anywhere close to the rest of the world.

The first Hobbit was pretty good in my imo.

The European Union is a union and not a country, the EU is pretty irrelevant here since there are lots of Europeans that don't live in a member country. There are lots of cultural differences and languages.

Of course everyone in Europe is European but generalising Europeans that really doesn't have that much in common (except living in Europe) is most often pretty stupid. Europe is very diverse in culture, climate, economy, politics, etc.

What's the fun in that though?

Their website is still free and every legal way to watch movies already includes subtitles.

I don't get the point of IPTV anymore.

Sure you get it for free or cheap, but you couldn't pay me to watch regular TV in a world with streaming (and Piracy).

I am not saying remove the files, just the torrent (as in stop seeding).

Just do what they asked you to do. Remove the torrents, it's not like they are threatening legal action. They are actually asking pretty nicely.

In the future, use a VPN.

Maybe they forgot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Editing a file with vim though ssh on mobile seems like a pain.
