I figured out how to take them down for good 😤
There are a bunch of accounts on TikTok that have been outright stealing videos from me and other content creators. Until now, TikTok has made it extremely difficult to get these accounts taken down, sometimes taking multiple months to respond to DMCA takedowns. This makes it possible for the thieves to simply keep uploading or make new accounts in the meantime. But in this video I go over how to put an end to this for good, by disrupting their ability to monetize the videos at all. Even if it takes around a month to get the videos taken down, they still should not make a dime. I also go over ways I found to make TikTok take things down faster than usual.
