This afternoon, I came across an annoying piece of information. A particular user on YouTube going by the name of "Bradley Scott" has been going around and downloading ceiling fan videos from various collectors and posting them on his channel as his own. Without much research I was able to determine that the following users have CF videos stolen from them:
-zacharydy4
-zappinghero
-fordescortboy91
-hunterceilingfan354
I'm sure there are more than that, take a look at his channel and see if you're on there. He has done the majority of the damage in the past week. If you want more information, here's a video I made on the subject.

He has autism, according to someone who knows him in person. He didn't seem to understand about YouTube very much (he posts "ceiling fan" comments). I was also told that he didn't know what the comment feed is for. And if he steals my video, I'll file a copyright claim, and he'll get a strike. If you get a strike, I heard that you have to take a quiz before using that account again. So I hope he'll learn that it's stealing and violating the rules.

I found out this morning that he has also stolen one of Cole S' videos.

Having autism is not a reason to perform illegal acts on the Internet. There are numerous people that have autism which function just as well as anyone else does in society, have jobs etc and do just fine. There's several that I know of in the fan collector realm alone. What he is doing is completely unacceptable, and there's no excuse for it. |

At least I know he won't touch my stuff.. True enough, however you just never know. Although a Casablanca Zephyr probably isn't as "cool" as a Hampton Bay Littleton, Bradley Scott has proven to be quite unpredictable so far. |

That's a good point, but you never know. He did take Cole's SMC video, and Cole doesn't post videos of junk. This channel does seem to consist primarily of newer China stuff though, which explains why his videos have so few views. |

He did take Cole's videos, so as far as I'm concerned any of us could be a target. |

I can only think of a handful of people who actually do like what I like, seems like everyone is starting to go after 90s and 2000s stuff.. Stuff I would never pick up or even want to be bothered with.. |
