Dr Phil is going to sue me... - Summary

Summary

A YouTuber, Pyro, discusses his issues with Dr. Phil's team claiming his reaction videos to Dr. Phil's show, despite them falling under fair use. Dr. Phil's team takes all the revenue from Pyro's videos and refuses to release the claim, forcing Pyro to file a counterclaim. However, YouTube's system requires Pyro to provide his personal information, which he's hesitant to do, especially since he's not a US citizen. A technical issue with YouTube's form also prevents Pyro from filing the counterclaim, as it doesn't recognize the UK as a valid country. Pyro decides not to pursue the matter further, fearing a lawsuit and potential channel strikes. He announces that this will be his last Dr. Phil reaction video and will move on to other content.
