So, a few days ago, the Fine Bros., well known for their react videos, made a video revealing their latest project, "React around the World". Essentially, it's a MCN that allows people to make reaction videos such as Kids React, Elders React, etc. from all over the world, under the Fine Bros. Name in exchange for publicity. But, here's the kicker. They are attempting to copyright the word "React", and essentially react videos in general. Of course, this is extremely dumb, they've been losing subscribers like crazy, and all of their most recent videos have thousands of dislikes and hateful comments. I want to know what you guys think of this mess.
My opinion on the matter is that this situation is very dumb. The Fine Bros. were already hugely successful, there was no need to get more money in the first place. Not only that, but trying to copyright the word "React" and reaction videos is super idiotic. They didn't invent react videos, or the word react. Granted, I am on the boat that some people are hating on them too much, but either way, what they're doing is just flat out nonsense.
Also, if you wanna see their live subscriber count go down just for the lols or whatnot, here's a link http://www.livecounts.x10host.com/?channel=Fine bros :^)
