Scalelab Content ID mistake & accountability

[Wreckless Eating]

Interesting story on Kotaku on how Scalelab accidentally made a bunch of false claims on gaming videos. Instead of trying to sweep it under the rug, they admitted to the error and offered to compensate people for the loss in revenue while their videos could not be monetized.

It's good that they admitted it then, you can't undo mistakes but you can clean up the mess

Excellent! People make mistakes, responsible people work to correct them.

Kudos to them. I have plenty of respect for people who hold their hands up and admit their mea culpa

God that's brilliant. False claim, state it was an error, take full responsibility, pay your way out (which is easy since you have the extra money anyways).

And now people know who you are.
