Seriously? You just stole the original 9 min vid from Vice and made it into a shitty short to beg for subs in Reddit? Come on man..

YouTube video Downvoted. No credit in the video description.

Downvoting here is worthless but on YouTube it effects the algorithm.

It might be allowed but it's still a scummy thing to do. Stealing other peoples work and republish bits of it as a short and beg for subs. Bellingcat does excellent and many times dangerous work, you shouldn't degrade it by bastardizing it for Youtube subs or Reddit upvotes.

You are a very short minded guy. How do you think Bellingcats stuff would be known if people like me didn’t repost it and help get reach and views? The original creators get free promotion/marketing from people like me which helps them grow even more.

Oh please, don't flatter yourself, Bellingcat does groundbreaking journalism that has the power to topple corporations and governments, they do not need your "help".
