🔴 Real LAWYER Reacts to Filmora Saga ▶ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MVjrMRoIQpc.html

@mynameisgladiator1933 Год назад

Somehow I think that threat of legal action they just made against you, perhaps, and the other major voices is going to end Filmora. They made it right and the took away every last bit of good will those actions engendered. I'm looking for a good cheap video editing solution but am I going to choose Filmora now? The magic 8 ball thinks not. Related to this, I have a lifetime license to my trading software that I've had for about 7 years. I never thought about that until now. I'm going to go out and read the fine print in that agreement and make sure I have a solid situation with my business critical software. Thanks for handling this in such a professional away. I'm not sure I would have been so calm in my comments.

@brutalhonesty07 Год назад

Just want to say I found your channel due to all this drama. I’m a da Vinci resolve guy. But I look forward to looking at the past to compare contrast why you chose filmora in earlier versions.

@Flofutz Год назад

I wonder if my lifetime License bought just before they called it filmora now also would apply.... I bought it from them (iSkysoft) in end of 2016 just as a lifetime license. After getting like one or two minor updates their " video editor" chaged it's name in 2017 and they wanted to charge me for an Filmora license...... since then i am a bit unhappy and didn't enter the Filmora bandwagon. So this is just to say they did, or at least tried it a second time.!!!! But this time due to their customer base beeing wider and mainly your efforts they didn't win! Sorry for my english..... *edit* I might got the year mixed... maybe it was 2015-2016

@Hexagonaldonut Год назад

The part I find the most hilarious about this entire situation is that Wondershare really thought they could get away with screwing over lifetime license holders without severe consequences, after what happened literally only a few months ago with Clip Studio Paint. It's almost like a lot of people on the internet have seen this song and dance before, have gotten really good at spotting it, and are *extremely sick of it.*

@catalystgreenhorn9184 Год назад

The reason they felt like they could get away with such a thing is because other companies have got away with something similar. For me personally, it was Z-brush and Clip Studio.

@brianhall4182 Год назад

Yeah, Clip Studio ticked me off doing the same stupid sort of thing. Bought it years ago because it was a one time purchase of a good product with updates that didn't require a monthly subscription like Photoshop. Then they go and change their policy.

@prorace_type_r Год назад

To be honest this was something that could be seen coming. I would also make a move if my lifetime purchase of a software is suddenly changed in terms. This is incredibly non-clever for a company to do. They have changed their plans, meaning they don't have to deal with more lifetime cases, which understandably are a burden. But it was a burden they knew from the beginning, they used that money from the lifetime licenses to get going and now these lifetime license holders obviously do not contribute (economically, because if someone is making content and talking about Filmora is helping spreading it), but probably they don't make a big bunch of their user base, and they will never grow larger, so come on.

Guys, let's not forget Daniel. He placed a target on his back to fight for us, and we rallied behind him and won. Now, it's our time to fight for him. They want to make him an example to other influencers of what happens when you fight back. If Filmora gets their way, this will set the tone for other companies who wish to "trick" their customers and other influencers will look at this case and decide not to use their platform to fight back. Continue to apply pressure and see this through so that all is right for everyone, not just ourselves.

I don't think any reasonable court would allow this as it will set a example on what companies can do. Even then, that would be a reputation suicide because everyone will be talking about it and think "Oh, this company sues people when get called out on something scummy they did." Unlike adobe, they don't have that strong robust software to cover them ... I never heard of them before till recently.

*Be careful:* I opened an old trial copy of Filmora 10 today and to my surprise it offered me a "FREE UPGRADE" to Filmora 12. But once it downloaded and installed the upgrade, it wouldn't let me export anything unless I paid for a license! Older versions would at least let you export a video with a watermark on it so you could evaluate it. Now in Filmora 12 you can't export anything without a license.

As someone who has never heard of Daniel before of this series of events or associated with filmora in any way, where I found the first part in my recommend, I must say a few off the top things 1. Throughout this whole situation Daniel seemed to show the most respect for filmora and anyone involved which we need more people like that in the world 2. He addressed the issue in full in a calm and respectful way not pointing fingers, not lashing out of filmora etc 3. Filmora seems like they in the situation were trying to play with the wording of stuff to cut lifetime licenses out of the equation to make more money which isn't the worst business if you don't care about the communities trust and respect which clearly they do In the end everyone played their hand while filmora were trying to justify using a second deck of cards to cheat with and eventually gave in

Same here! Although I have to say: I’m thinking of a more global concept here > should customers need to go through so much time/effort, accumulated voices, painful processes, investigation, and everything that was needed in this case in order for a big company to react ethically? Its sad that’s our world; the people with the most money in the planet, changing their old contract’s wording behind scenes, lying, to get EVEN MORE money > because we have to think now, how many companies get away with this? those that did not were as “unlucky” (99% or more, of the unethical ones) as Wondershare > would love the global law to evolve into something that removes this “noise need” from customers backs / responsibility and places the burden of being simply HUMAN (ethic) on the big companies. (2) Daniel even says (im paraphrasing) “thanks for giving what customers were asking for” .. NO, it was not an ask, that’s were these big companies conceptually win or softens the blow, and derail, cause they think “ok client, you are asking for something, you need me, here you go” NO. First of all, why thank someone for something I should already have and you technically already gave to me? 2nd add on top how you’ve treated me during the way to finally have you giving me what I DESERVE, not asked, DESERVE. Wow, mega topic, global / many companies potential impact, even at capitalism grand topic scale.

I’m not a filmora user but this whole series of videos came to me and I have been watching them with great interest. A big shout out to everyone for banding together and also for LTT for joining in as well. I hope everything between Wondershare and Daniel is RESOLVEd cleanly 😊

I don't edit videos or have any interest in learning how to, but I subscribed to your channel because of the way you have handled this situation. You have been calm and kind through this whole thing. We need more people like you in this world and on this platform.

Wow...while surfing RU-vid I came across your first video explaining the start of this entire saga and remained on the edge of my seat until eventually coming to this post. Congratulations on remaining steadfast to the principle of truth and transparency regarding how companies conduct themselves with customers! Even through the potential naysayers, you continued to hold the company accountable and let your voice be heard in every way possible. Kudos to your tenacity! I am not in the business of editing videos, but I am subscribing to your channel just on the strength of your actions through this entire matter! Keep up the awesome work, Daniel, and I wish you all the best in 2023 and beyond!

@rayray2glocks Год назад

Wow! Didn't even know about you, your channel or filmora and these videos give me hope!! You stood up for what was right and stared ruin in the face for your troubles. A really inspiring tale to be sure.

I've never even used Filmora, but stumbled across this video somehow. Crazy story with a hopefully good resolution as long as they drop the legal threat nonsense and let the copyright claim die... I dig your style. You've got a new sub!

I’m not a Filmora user but always found your videos really helpful with video stuff. One of the things you have demonstrated so brilliantly in these recent videos is conflict management and how to act with integrity in a dispute. I’ve learned a lot. The way you’ve conducted yourself is so good to see.

@Nutrafin-3D Год назад

Easily the most professional addressing of a silly situation I've ever seen. Congrats on helping your community

@alvintan3516 Год назад

I like how you end it brother, it made me laugh. Thank you for being our voice in our LIFETIME subscription with Filmora.

@geraldmartin7417 Год назад

Brother, I don't do anything related to video or editing but I love watching your videos. I somehow stumbled upon your Filmora drama and I can't wait to see what happens next. Keep fighting the good fight.

@mike-ology22 Год назад

Well done! This is a massive win. You sponsored filmora at the start, grew their presence through your videos and indeed a license for life did really mean for life. Fair play for them doing that, and a great win you

@Gitum Год назад

You've done great work for the users of Filmora! As long as it won't hurt you in any legal capacity, please keep us posted with regards to the copyright strike removal :)

@jimdeery2709 Год назад

@pauls5745 Год назад

I really feel good not just about how Filmora now will make it right with license holders, but how Daniel keeps a great attitude throughout the whole ordeal.

@dontask8686 Год назад

Filmora is still trash, and they only did what they did as damage control. Had it not been brought to light as it was, they would have continued their disgusting business practices and ripped on many of their lifetime users. Do not support them.

@Aaron-xr7oc Год назад

Woah what is the coincidence how the algorithm recommends me you, and after watching the previous Filmora videos, you just post a new video! Nice.

@Daniel_Batal Год назад

Thank you. RU-vid!

@nomeproductionsLLC Год назад

Thank you so much for what you did to bring this to our attention & following through till the end. So many people out there would have caved when things got sticky. If you need any help in your journey with Filmora's legal Issues, your community is behind you. Stay strong.

Omg Daniel i remember watching you when you had like a few thousand subs, i think after this whole crazy ride with filmora i will start watching again. The thing that has not changed is that you still got that rock dad vibe, gotta love it

Love the not-so-sneaky resolve plug at the end 🤣 I hope you get everything worked out with that strike, and THANK YOU for standing up for us! 🥰

@ianvanwyk3707 Год назад

I'm not even involved in the video editing space and stumbled across this video (and the preceding one where you raised the issue) by chance. Your guts for tackling the issue head on is inspiring and proof that we as consumers can get corpos to listen if we make our voices heard.

@5e60 Год назад

Your first video about this topic was recommended to me, and as a lifetime license owner of Filmora, I was curious about it. I'm very glad that you took the initiative to expose their wrong ways. Thanks for creating the awareness for the issue and fighting for what's right.

I don’t know how I should thank you Daniel. It is you the only person to raise up first after filmora lifetime licence controversy. Biggest thanks to you ♥️. I think it wasn’t possible enough if you weren’t there to to have a conversation about their stupid misconception.

@Daniel_Batal Год назад

You're very welcome. I thank everyone involved including Filmora

@SasteyVloggers Год назад

Hey one more thing I wanna ask that will filmora be offering the lifetime license purchase for the users who want to buy a lifetime license or not ..?

@pnwnvtz3715 Год назад

Thank you Daniel Batal for speaking out and helping correct a serious problem for those who do not have a large voice. You were, and still are, a great instructor for all things Filmora.

@ravenswing602 Год назад

Great video, I love how you share your opinion on a very polite an professional maner even if the filmora people do not deserv it

@kwsx11 Год назад

I'm happy to hear about the positive outcome, but it's bittersweet given the thinly-veiled threat you (and potentially other members of the community) received. Thank you again for your integrity as a creator. I am confident that your appeal will be successful, and I hope that Filmora doesn't jeopardize the positive elements of their response by continuing to pursue this fruitless action.

@ForeverSongMinistries Год назад

Very thin!!!

@SourceAwareness Год назад

@kwsx11, NOTHING was "thinly veiled" about their pathetic threat to Daniel. They are PHONY, only doing this because they would no doubt lose millions of dollars and supporters if they didn't. Corporate RU-vid is no different, and only lightened up on their bogus "medical misinformation" policy when the TRUTH about you-know-what began coming out more and more.

@SourceAwareness Год назад

@@ForeverSongMinistries Nope, there is nothing "thin" about any threat. They were targeting Daniel and anyone like him who exposes their lies and deceptions. They are a dark and deceptive company, same as corporate RU-vid, that resorts to bullying and lies and censorship, same as RU-vid. *_Time for people to wake up._*

@superslash7254 Год назад

An appeal isn't enough. False DMCA claims are perjury, which is a felony. This needs to be pursued.

@MarcosElMalo2 Год назад

The company tried to gaslight its customers. It wanted to change the terms of contracts with these customers unilaterally, and it tried to force this on customers by using misleading language that didn’t appear in the original agreement. The only thing that forced Filmora to honor its agreements and keep its promises was the social backlash which could have affected sales. It’s not doing anyone any favors. It’s doing what it required to do and that it unethically tried to avoid doing. That the company included the threat indicates that the company is still run by highly unethical people.

@anheld8726 Год назад

Im glad you stood up to Wondershare, I am not a lifetime liscense holder, I knew about Filmora for a long time but hated their practices regarding using their demo version. So when i saw these antics they were carrying on with, i was pretty mad. Social media is usually a bad thing, but its ability to allow the little guy to come together and push back against big tech corps who try to abuse their power is definetly one of the good things about it

Daniel, thank you for your Integrity and being a Champion for your viewers. You showed how Poised a real Seasoned Professional conducts themselves when things get difficult. This was a positive learning experience for me watching how you dealt with this. Bravo! BTW, It's a special when communities come together to give a hand up and do what is right. I guess I can thank Filmora for that.

I knew of filmora but was not a user. Like many people I was pulled in on the first video about filmora. I'm tired of companies going back on their word for profit. I wish you lots of luck, Daniel. Thanks for having so much integrity and standing up for the regular people

@MrWizard65 Год назад

Never used Filmora but stumbled upon your first video about this issue. What I DO have in common with the situation is that I cannot stand corporations stomping on their customers so I quickly got engrossed and headed (with pitchfork in hand) to twitter to express my concerns. Thank you for being the bigger person in this situation and displaying yourself and your opinion in a professional manner.

@MrJoeyWheeler Год назад

Yes. Agreed. I'm not a Filmora user either, but I am a Photoshop user. While free options exist, they have a higher learning curve and I can't deal with that. Loads of companies keep changing to subscription models and screwing over the customers as a result.
