Dr. Drew apologizes for being a COVID-19 denier after copyright silliness; Ars Technica, April 6, 2020

Kate Cox, Ars Technica; Dr. Drew apologizes for being a COVID-19 denier after copyright silliness

Dr. Drew coronavirus supercut restored to YouTube after copyright takedown.



"Bharara, a former US attorney, and Boutrous, a high-profile attorney, were among the many who replied to defend or amplify Ali.

"You are safe from any 'copywrite' lawsuit, @yashar," Bharara tweeted. "Know your writes."

"Truth and fair use got you," Boutrous added in a tweet that quoted Pinsky's now-deleted threat.

It appears that either Pinsky or YouTube was inclined to agree. Sometime around noon Monday, give or take an hour, the YouTube video listing very quietly started working once again. Similarly, every message on Pinsky's @drdrew Twitter account relating to the video has been deleted."
