I came to this forum around January 2015 to report that I had half of my channel false content ID claimed by MCN Freedom. I am pleased to report that soon after I made that post I was contacted by someone in MCN Freedom who had immediately removed all false content ID claims from my channel.
I decided that I will investigate this and report back to the forum with my findings.
I had discovered this false content ID scam not only affected me but other channels in the Military section.
A few months before this happened my Ex talent manager Mohamed Al-Badrawi (Nickname Moody) from Freedom sub network OneKindMedia had announced that he was talking to Freedom CEO George about getting content ID for his network OneKindMedia. I think Mohamed is now the CEO of Zoonix network
At the start of January 2015 when its normal for earnings to go down I got the older half of my channel false content ID claimed so this was very well hidden. Fortunately I had my Gmail open so I was getting E-mail notifications coming in and I was able to shut down my channel to foil their plans.
I had appealed some of these content ID claims some were released and some were rejected. There was one video I pointed out that it was US Military and that works by the US Government are public domain. After I sent this appeal off YouTube channel Daily Military Defense & Archive had started from that day on mostly uploading only US Military Public domain content. Interestingly this channel was partnered with MCN Freedom. I had sent a message to this channel he claimed he had nothing to do with it but he kept asking me for screen shots of the content ID details as he wanted to help. But I had refused as I suspected he played a part in this because he decided to upload mostly US Military public domain content just after I appealed one video with the US Military public domain defense. If you go and look at this channel it's very popular get great views but look at the subscriber counter it's set to private for some strange reason.
I came to this forum to tell everyone what happened and someone from freedom had released their claims on my channel. Thats when I started to investigate.
I contacted freedom directly and told them that I suspect that Moody was behind this they told me that Moody was already on the radar for shady things but Freedom refused to say what exactly he was on the radar for. Freedom told me they had investigated that matter and could not find any evidence that he was behind it but they also told me that his power to respond to content ID appeals had been revoked.
I then contacted someone who I know in Freedom to find out who exactly is behind this channel I was told that this person was using the name of Younes so I looked up this name on wikipedia this is what i found:
Yunus (also spelled Younes or Younis, Arabic: , Younis, Persian: , Younes) is a common male given name and the Arabic equivalent of the name Jonah, meaning dove.
I also found out that the owner had English as a second language.
So we got a rival channel that just happens to be partnered with freedom that I suspect was looking at my content ID appeals, is using an Arab name and uses English as a second language. Interestingly Moody is an Iraqi Arab was a big fan of the Freedom network and had content ID powers. The channel was partnered with Freedom directly and not via OneKindMedia I thought to myself if Moody is running that channel why would he not partner it with OneKindMedia? I came to the conclusion that I have the wrong person or Moody is smart he knows that it would look creepy to be running a competing channel to a client that left him. A few months after the channel was moved from freedom to broadband TV interestingly Moody had worked with Broadband TV before founding OneKindMedia with MCN Freedom. So I felt I had a reason to suspect that Moody was running this channel.
I then started to ask MCN Freedom questions about the channel that took my videos and activated content ID I was told the following that the channel was partnered with freedom via sub network MTX Network the owners name was Insider Media. Interestingly I had spoken to MTX Network before this happened about a possible partnership that I had rejected. So the channel that took my videos and content ID them just so happens to be partnered with MTX Network that knew about my channel and was offering me a partnership what a coincidence. I had confronted MTX Network about this and guess what silence they wont message me back as to how this could of happened.
I found out there were a number of channels in the military section that had some of their videos falsely content ID claimed. So the amounts of money we talking there could potentially be big.
A few months ago I was told that Moody had lost his content ID powers with MCN Freedom because of Fraud.
The rival channel MilitaryWarArchive that I mentioned earlier was buying thousands of dollars worth of Fake views to push his videos up and pushing our videos down in search results and suggested video section. The Question is where did this person get the money from to buy so much in fake views?
So my suspicions are that OneKindMedia and MTX Network worked together to false content ID claim videos in the military section and OneKindMedia who is suspected of running the rival channel used the money to buy thousands of dollars worth of fake views to get his videos and channel ranked up fast.
Thats my report for the forum and I would like to urge you all that these people are just suspects and you should presume them innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt.
I decided that I will investigate this and report back to the forum with my findings.
