Disney is STILL Copyright Claiming Steamboat Willie Videos

- Steamboat Willie's Mickey Mouse is in the public domain, and there's nothing Walt Disney Animation Studios can do about it. However, CZcams uploads of the Steamboat Willie cartoon are still being copyright claimed by Disney. What's going on here? Is there any way to make money off of the original Mickey Mouse now that Disney doesn't own the copyright anymore?

(cant we just sue disney because they are copyrighting something that WE OWN????)
They just can’t admit they don’t own steamboat Willie anymore
EDIT: I think I started an argument in the replies
Ikr! They should just accept it
Technically they do
They're very stubborn.
Not really, everything expired, now it's in domain, not this Mickey. @@Kyle_south_park2
They're really coping
I wish the law was set up so that false copyright claims, dmca takedowns, etc, were considered WORSE than somebody actually violating copyright, but unfortunately, that just isn’t the case right now…
Is just the music that still in copyright.
Or just equal. Like, if a creator could sue for false flagging the frivolous "you used 5 seconds, that's ours now" would be over. Looking at you Nintendo.
@@catholiccontriversyI don’t know how that would work against Nintendo since they are a Japanese company with different copyright rules
@@zwillscoopchannel9689 actual law may be different, but they are the poster child of "if you so much as show 1 screenshot we're coming after you."
@@catholiccontriversy ya I can agree with you
Disney is a cautionary tale of what happens when you let corporations get away with anything for the right price.
Wich shouldn't even be legal in the first place
It's a problem with CZcams and their AI algorithm, not Disney
Imagine owning a character for 95 years and then throwing a copyright tantrum a week after they become public domain
Imagine building your company on public domain fairytales. But when it is your turn to add to it you throw a tantrum for it.
I mean, literally everyone saw this coming. It's objectively wrong of them, but we all knew they'd go down fighting.
@@Wendy_O._Koopa Yeah it is Disney after all, they don't want other people touching their beloved mouse
They threw a tantrum because immediately people started giving them the finger and doing all sorts of twisted Mickey Mouse content to mess with them.
Say it with me kids: THE PUBLIC DOMAIN DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT!!! It's not the carefree utopia lazy youtubers who didn't make their homework told you it is. You still need distribution rights when you try to make money off of content that you didn't make. That's how it has always worked. Disney is completely within their right. Vailskibum has misinformed you!
This just shows to me that Disney is so butthurt about how they couldn’t keep Mickey under their umbrella until the end of time. This is also the Hydra scenario. For every video they copyright strike, two more will pop up.

The reason why Disney copyrighted the video is because they probably already uploaded to CZcams.
@@happyguy9783 But _anyone_ can upload it to CZcams!
Unless they set fire to the website
@@azazel1091 Or it could be that new Mickey Mouse Horror movie Mickey Mouse Blood and Cheese.

I wasn't surprised that Disney would still try every tiny legal action they can to still try and make it seem as if this public domain is still theirs. They're an aggressive massive corporation. They think they're above the law. And will do any tiny loopholes just so they can have it their way. I work in a small tech company, and our company despite being small always have meetings and plans for anything that can affect our work process model. Disney is a colossal company. I'm sure they had an entire team planning out their retaliation years ago in anticipation of the Steamboat Willie going into public domain. Every single planned action was already set. I'm sure Disney already made connections with CZcams's top executives.
It's just Bob Iger calm down
This is different, now this is Public by default, if I make my own version of that Mickey, I can even make a new design, not that used by Disney but something new, that would now be my copyright till 70 years after the day I die.
ok
The public domain is a blessing and a curse at the same time.
It's worth all the horrid horror movies to have Mickey Mouse in the public domain.
its a blessing, period
@@christopherrapczynski204It was a blessing until Disney got their claws on it and did irreversible damage to it

@@jojomayard7233 I was talking about how Disney lobbied to keep their greedy hands on their properties longer. The time for something to go into public domain used to be 56 years and now it's 95. Ironic considering Disney was built off of public domain stories.

Disney is like a caged lion. It's very unlikely for it to kill you, but if you stick your hand inside its cage for even a second, it will take every chance it gets to bite you
I'm more so thinking that this is primarily on CZcams not updating their Content ID lists after certain works had become public domain. But then again, Disney is also known for this kind of copyright bombing.
I really hope it's just CZcams's content ID system not being adjusted yet, but I can totally see it as Disney just not being able to admit defeat. Either way, I hope something is done about it soon.
im sure thats probably whats happening
Very much agreed
I am pretty sure it’s just the content ID system as I have heard that Disney would not fight to keep the copyright for longer so it feels really weird that they now suddenly want it extended? Sounds off so I am more inclined on the content ID thing until proven otherwise
Pretty sure that's what happening.
@@patfre there is absolutely no shot Disney can extend the ENTIRE copyright system of USA anymore. They are practically detested at this point, the public would riot if they try that
CZcams's system probably doesn't know that it's on the public domain now, so Disney is taking advantage of it
Likely the opposite, Disney lawyers are probably yelling at CZcams/Alphabet to pull it from the ID system as it's leaving them exposed to a very public fraud trial. Any suit is not important as it will just be settled out of court but the press will run with it because Disney's name sells well in headlines especially when it's a scandal.
Or maybe the music is still in copyright.
@@cristobalgabrielramirezmas5274 No way, because the music used in the short was public domain AT THE TIME Steamboat Willie was released, so there's literally nothing wrong with it. Thus, Disney is making a false claim of copyright which is kind of not allowed, possibly even illegal. I would like to see some people team up and take Disney to court honestly, fuck the corporation
@@officialtoddhoward69 Under the CLASSICS Act, sound recordings from 1928 would have a term of protection of 100 years from creation, meaning that Disney could theoretically enforce the sound recording copyright until 1929.

I uploaded Steamboat Willie (Remastered 1080p) on 1st January, Disney claimed copyright and blocked it. I immediately submitted a dispute, while it still says copyright but the video is no longer blocked.

This has never happened before when a work from the past has entered the public domain. This just goes to show how frickin seriously Disney in particular takes its intellectual property, and it leaves me worried as to what might happen when other well-known works enter the public domain in future years.
As Vail said though, it may just be the automated copyright system still flagging things
There has been plenty of work that entered public domain. Winnie the Pooh for example. There is a huge list of works that been in the public domain.
@@Voorhees-JasonYes, but they're saying all the other times a work has entered public domain, this didn't happen
isn’t it illegal to false copyrighting content?
If you guys watched MatPat's video, you'll know that Disney trademarked the first few frames of Steamboat willie. Trademarks can never go into the public domain and that's the reason.
@@TopperHasBeenFound doesn’t that defeat to whole purpose of copyright?
@@TopperHasBeenFoundTrademarks cannot be used like copyrights. That’s abuse of the trademark. The purpose of a trademark is to allow purchasers to know who they are dealing with, i.e. a mark of someone or company in a trade. As long as the person isn’t claiming to be Disney or be representing Disney in any way, they should be in the clear. Disney claiming such a video would be abusing their trademark.
@@TopperHasBeenFound That's not the reason. CZcams's content ID system checks for supposed copyright infringements, not trademark infringements.
I blame this more on CZcams than Disney. Anyone who knows CZcamss sheer incompetence, knows they're to blame.
In large part anyway
It seems like Disney refuses to accept public domain for their expired projects.

No, this system is for copyright claiming, so no they can't use trademark in this scenario!@@meep5604
@@user-sd3vd9nz2p Unfortunately, that's _exactly_ it. Trademarks, as long as they're still in active use, _never_ expire (unlike copyright which does even if it's still in use), and Disney is still in their full legal - but not moral - right to "defend against people confusing derivitive works for official ones". And that's the rub... people _aren't_ confusing the Steamboat Willies as official, they're remixing the 🐬🐬🐬 out of it because copyright (the (in)ability to use the work for ANY unauthorized purpose) no longer applies. Trademark is supposed to _only_ be used against "trying to pass off a derivitive work as having been made by the original company", but the Big Mouse Upstairs never got that particular memo.

This is still perfect. (Vailskibum, I hope you're reading this.) I'm actually going to be writing a book about Steamboat Willie through a different lense:
Young 14-year-old, Mick, an extremely poor kid who lives in the 30s. Yep. A kid. No amprophamorfic animal. A kid. A human kid. Anyways, Mick lives with his his parents in an abandoned windmill. His dream is to see the world, but unfortunately that is most likely not going to happen. It's more unfortunate how behind his parents' backs, he is actually a troubled, well-known bread thief, nicknamed "Mouse" which is the title of this book. The reason they call him Mouse is because how small he is and how he sneaks crumbs. He is one day apprehended by the police and when they find out his son's a thief, they're very disappointed in him. Luckily, Mouse is not going to prison because he's a child and how he's poor, and the police only give him a warning. Now desperate, Mouse needs a job, so he goes looking for one, and was in luck to get one at a Steamboat as the cabin boy, which is shipping animals across the world. The owner of this boat, Peter, is quite the brute. He's such a jerk of a boss and treats his crew poorly. As the boat leaves to ship the animals, another member who came for the job and was late on her first day. Mouse was able to get Peter to turn the boat around. The girl's name was Minnette and she was just about the same age as Peter. She needs this job because her mom has leukemia. Throughout the trip, Mouse and Minnette join a romantic bond towards one another. One night, while Peter was sleeping, Mouse and Minnette shared a dance on the main deck, dancing to a song on the stereo. Mouse and Minnette also have a bond with the animals on the ship. It's more sad how Peter wants to transport these animals to an illegal butcher shop and turn them into leather clothing. He only did this for money and money only. Luckily, at the end, Mouse and Minnette stop Peter from doing his wrongs, and Peter gets arrested after Mouse reveals to the cops that it's illegal. After that, Peter goes to prison, and Mouse now owns the Steamboat. What now? Mouse and Minnette are heavily in love, Mouse's parents are no longer poor, and Mouse can finally live up to his dream in seeing the world. The story ends, with Mouse steering the ship, whistling a tune.
Hope you like my pitch. I had really good time.
No matter what we do Disney will always try to keep its fingers on the plate.
Music in Copyright.
@@cristobalgabrielramirezmas5274Wasn’t the music made around the same time as the actual short. You’d think that they’d go into the public domain together

And UMG.
Cant be surprised from the capitalist megacorp that lobbied congress to fuck over copyright law for so long in order to keep Mickey out of the Public Domain
itz cuz of TM they had trademarked the sound so no one could use it ):
CZcams doesn't have a system in place for public domain. Also, similar to fair use, it is only a legal defense not a "remove the false copyright claim" thing meaning you have to go to court and proof the work you used originally was created x years ago. This is very true for music, since if played to the music sheet, two covers sound identical without footage
they arent ready to have this talk yet
It's probably because CZcams has never had to deal with public domain stuff before since the copyright period is so unreasonably long
I thought i was the only one who got a copyright clam, I reported it that if it was a mistake but I didn’t get any word form CZcams about it, Im a small creator and I don’t even have the subs to make my videos monetize if I wanted to but I’m glad you shared this problem that other CZcamsrs that could have the same problem, big or small
I get it if people are calling him *Mickey* since that's not entirely true, saying he's Mickey is at risk, it's *Steamboat Willie* (original mickey) but _nopee_ they still want to chokehold even this yet its illegal
He's called Mickey in in Steamboat Willie. Steamboat Willie is the name of the ship. The character was always Mickey.
Mickey's name is public domain! You can find it in the title card of Steamboat Willie, among other places.
@@waitithoughtihadtousemyrea5976Ah yes, my favorite anime character is Cowboy Bebop./lh
@fermata4425 Yes, I don't know where people got the idea he wasn't called Mickey. I guess some popular person must have said it and spread the misinformation.
@@waitithoughtihadtousemyrea5976they say it so that disney can't say anything about them using a copyrighted name, because the name Mickey Mouse is still owned by them
They also don't own the copyright to the music including mickey whistling, because the song is based from a song called steamboat bill released in 1910. And also the same year before steamboat willie came out there was a full hour and 10 minute film called steamboat bill Jr.
this...and the fact that there are other characters in the short who are not part of the public domain
@@angelinacamacho8575 If they're in the short, then they're in the public domain.
Also the fact that Steamboat Bill is based on an even older composition called Casey Jones
I’m definitely not surprised they’ve been trying to change copyright law for like years at this point
The bigger issue is that CZcams takes a long time to update itself to newly made public domain videos
This just actually shows the degenerate stuff that Disney does to people using their characters in sponsorships, videos, and etc because they went to the public domain yet they still want to keep their characters because they are a terrible company who just wants our money.

@@bigmacintosh1766I actually agree with you on this one ngl
As was said here though, it’s possibly just the automated system claiming it, which isn’t always accurate

Much of the short is public domain in the US. It might not enter Australia’s own public domain until 2042.

It's only been a Week with Steamboat Willie and Why am I not surprised to see Disney doing this.
The same thing literally happened to me as well! My Steamboat Willie reaction also got blocked, and after I disputed it, thankfully it got unblocked, but then a different part of the video copyright claimed.
My question is has any of the other SW videos in Mickey's likeness been taken down and or claimed or just the original cartoon? Because if its just the cartoon then my guess is its youtube's automation not catching up. I highly doubt this is the action of Disney themselves, but it could be.
Not an expert, but I’ll guess there could be a loophole related to the specific version of the cartoon we see uploaded being refinished in some way later. Like receiving slightly updated audio, slightly cleaned up visuals, or anything related to the cartoon now being digital instead of film-based. Could be compared to how most classical music is public domain by this point but you still have to be very careful if monetarily using someone else’s performance/recording of it as that is still legally owned.

Disney will just try and extend copyright to another 10 years, thus removing mickey, Pooh, Peter Pan, and Bambi from the public domain
They won't, there would be too much backlash and they don't really make that much money from those old shorts anymore. Disney would be fighting a losing battle
@@ALegitPooperVideos I would say that I agree, but Disney seems to be doing a Go Defunct speedrun at this point, so there's like a 50% that they'll attempt to do this.

Welp…YOU HAVE ONE GOD DAMN JOB DISNEY
For me this actually seems like a CZcams issue, rather than Disney's.
If CZcams forgets to take public domain from it's database for detecting copyrighted material, then it is not a Disney issue, it's CZcams.
Like the OG Walt Disney CEO, The company is salty on
not having massive control and being above the law.
They did ruthlessly plagiarize Kimba the White Lion ( The Lion King), then blatantly claimed classic fairy tales despite all
of it being public domain (They are almost 200 years ripe for everyone)
The reason for this may because the copyright is still there, they didnt remove it from systems yet, it JUST came into the public domain. Either way i bet disney also isny regretting any of this
Maybe, but also If you watched MatPat's video, you'll know that Disney trademarked the first few frames of Steamboat willie. Trademarks can never go into the public domain and that's also one of the reasons.

To play devil's advocate for Disney, it's not a copyright claim, it's a trademark claim.

Trademarks aren't exactly the same thing as copyrights.
Something that is in public domain but still trademarked can be used by anyone in their works, but can't be used in branding, like in a logo or a title.

I'd just like to say my upload of Steamboat Willie, one that wasn't just a straight upload of the actual cartoon, basically got blocked in several countries instead of being fully public. To reiterate, while Valiskibum put out the actual cartoon and it got set to public, mine which basically distorted audio and repeated some video for comedic effect got restricted. It also got content ID'd for audio and visual so despite the fact I don't monetize my videos, I put in a refutation bc screw that, and the video only became fully public after I put in the appeal.
As Vail said here, it’s likely the AI system not being fully updated to not claim the short
This COULD just be CZcams's AI not yet having been updated to regard Steamboat Willie as public domain...but it could also be Disney having no respect for the concept of the public domain and still wanting to think of Steamboat Willie as theirs.
1:43 this is probably the first time I heard this CZcamsr swear and I started laughing so hard because of that lmfao
Valskibum literally warned that his videos contained swearing

It's easily as simple as the content ID system like you said, it's not disney's fault. The animation must not have had it's content ID protection removed off the platform yet, which I'm pretty sure is CZcams's job.
Bingo
That’s why I’m confused that almost no one else in the comments here are referring to that possibility which Vail himself said in this video
CZcams is likely just being slow LOL
@@RB01.10 it’s cuz people are dumb and don’t know how technology works. Glad I’m not the only one 😂
1:44 the day finally came and it packed a punch.
I always love it when Vailskibum says the b word very slowly.
Fun fact. While steamboat Willy is in the public domain, Walt Disney still owns the trademark to the intro of walt Disney animation studios. The intro just so happens to be a whistling portion of steam boat Willy. It’s entirely possible that Disney is using that trademark to copyright things. Don’t know for sure
I hope that’s the case and if it is the case I hope everyone uses it without knowing it
To be fair. It won’t stop anyone using Mickey Mouse. The horror movies cannot legally be stopped. This more just applies to the actual whistling bit of steamboat willie
@@TheLimepatch even if they used the whistling bit?
Only if they use anything to similar to a trademark owned by fisney
@@TheLimepatch hopefully they do so it’s taken down
That happened to me when I re-uploaded the steamboat Willy short.
Disney: YOU WILL NEVER GET A CENT OUT OF ME!!!
I've uploaded it to both my CZcams channels and got the same thing to happen to me I've even called out CZcams and Disney on it on Twitter and then CZcams just tells about copyright safe music and shares a link on Public Domain seriously they're useless!
The song used at the beginning of the cartoon is from a 1911 song called "Steamboat Bill". In 1928, it was not public domain.
That could be it
@@michaelrhett4958 Be what?
The song is probably the reason it got copyrighted
@@Hion982 That's even more hypocritical than I imagined!
That makes it public domain as well which makes Disney's claim to putting the copyright here that much more idiotic.
It’s because Brock was doing an impression of their voices. Their voices are still not public domain because they don’t speak in those shorts.
How are they gonna copyright somebody’s voice
@@veenatamara4543 the way Mickey and Minnie speaks is under copyright i think. Also, songs have copyright. Songs that uses an human voice. Basically the voice in the song is under copyright. I think is the same for Mickey and Minnie voices
But that's his voice impressions of them though
@@jonal5126
You legally cannot copyright a voice.
Parody falls under Fair Use though.
Disney’s just mad they don’t own steamboat Willie anyone, typical Disney. Just take the L and move on
Hearing vailskibum swear is surreal
