Legal scholar debunks viral 'play Disney music to beat creepshots' advice
technollama · x · 2026-09-27
A viral tip claims playing Disney music during covert recording gets videos removed via copyright detection. Law scholar technollama dismantles it: recordings may never be shared yet still harm; dodgy platforms ignore strikes; the creep can strip the audio; and copyright belongs to the rights holder, not the person filmed—playing a song grants no takedown right. The trick shifts burden onto potential victims who may not even know they're being recorded.
