How did this happen?
According to TMZ.com, Justin Bieber has been victimized by a brand new cyber-enemy… BIEBER HATER… an enemy who found a way to get every single one of JB’s official music videos REMOVED from YouTube.
A YouTube user who goes by the name iLCreation submitted a copyright claim on each of Bieber’s videos … including the “Baby” video which has over
600+ MILLION views.
YouTube has a yank first, ask questions later policy when a copyright claim is made — so they simply pulled the videos off the site … until the dispute is resolved.
iLCreation also went after a few Lady Gaga videos — but only a few of her videos are missing in action.
Bieber’s VEVO channel (a dedicated site for music videos) has been completely wiped out for the time being … but a rep for VEVO tells TMZ:
Someone is making false copyright claims against the Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga channels and YouTube has blocked access to the videos as a result. We are working with YouTube to resolve ASAP.
A call to Justin Bieber’s camp was not immediately returned.
Let’s hope youtube fix this thing quick!
