Are there any fans of Ray William Johnson here? I reckon he is the first and biggest youtube star so far, who made himself solely online. I watch his youtube videos every so often. Well, I must admit I like the guy and his sense of humor.

However, I wonder, isn't it a copyright infringement to insert other's youtubers videos in your own one? Here is an example.

Technically speaking when an "owner" publishes something on youtube they are given rights to enable or disable embed codes for their video. The embed is the html code that is displayed at the side of a video.

IN theory if that person has the code that means he is allowing other users to use his videos.

Do you believe he uses embedding? I always thought he captured or downloaded these videos in order to insert them in his own video file to upload it later on youtube.

They have only two things in common - name and last name. The man you posted has only 52 subscribes. So, I do wonder how come you found his channel. Lol
