I've noticed something interesting: when I find a content thief with a portfolio of thousands of stolen photos and videos�some of them mine�and I report them, there is a huge difference in how Adobe and Shutterstock handle the situation.

Adobe usually responds quickly, verifies the information, and if the claim is valid, they take drastic action. They don�t just remove the stolen video; they wipe out the entire account of the user trying to profit from stolen work. Once again, Adobe shows that they respect contributors.

Shutterstock, on the other hand, only removes the specific video that was reported, while leaving the rest of the thief�s portfolio intact�even though it's pretty obvious that if they stole one video, chances are they�ve stolen many others too.

So... what does this difference in approach say about Shutterstock? 

I've already gone through the process of filling out the forms they require on both platforms. It�s exhausting, frustrating, and an absolute waste of time, energy, and even money. What makes it worse is that the theft is so obvious�it�s clear the user is stealing content. And yet, we, the rightful creators, are the ones who have to jump through hoops. Check if some of your videos are being stolen too.

Hey! Is it just me, or did the button to sort user content by date disappear (Filter by Date)
after they changed the platform so I could nominate assets?

It is an element that I use daily... where is it??

 

I found some of my videos on this app called "capcut" which apparently allows users to edit videos from their phone.

I have no idea if they have purchased any type of license to be able to do this on any of the platforms where I sell my videos (ss, pond, adobe...), but it strikes me that there is some type of license that allows them use the videos in perpetuity in a computer program.

Of course, I start to find my video on YouTube channels where users share it (after having downloaded them from "Capcut"...

Does the same happen to some of you?

Adobe sales lately are only for a few dollars. It's a shame. I was hoping that this company would be different. I thought it was part of his philosophy to treat the collaborator with decency and respect.

Once again... I was wrong. It's crap, like all the rest.

Clearly among all the crap I prefer shutterstock, at least there I make more money, and they don't pretend to
be better people than the rest....

Yeah..  in hypocrisy adobe is the big champion.

greeting.

Hello, sorry for my English. Is there a way to be able to modify keywords in bulk, I mean, all at the same time, without having to do it one by one?
Because I have some videos that have words that I want to modify and I'm going crazy.
Thank you.

Looks like the SS guys are experiencing some serious problems with their FTP for foootage.

I receive the same error permanently:

We can not read what's in your file. Please re-save or re-export your file, and try uploading it again.

 

Anyone received this? Worth it? Or is it a new way to lower the price of our videos?:
