Make YouTube change their Content ID system and stop UMG.

The Issue

YouTube’s content ID system is out of control to the point where it’s starting to mess with creator’s livelihoods. UMG and other companies copyright videos and take all the money from them just for even mentioning a song or putting in a second. Even if a channel (such as a reaction channel or music compilation channel) used 15 seconds or so it shouldn’t be copyright claimed under the laws of fair use, this negatively affects YouTuber’s lives and it needs to be changed. Please take away manual reviews and just make it where if there’s over 15 seconds of a song it’s claimed or something like that, please this negatively affects so many creators lives.
