Lo-fi hip hop music brand Lofi Girl has joined video sharing platform
Rumble one month after its YouTube live streams were suddenly taken
offline by bogus copyright claims.

Lofi Girl is live streaming on Rumble and has also added all of the
videos that are available on its YouTube channel. The Lofi Girl
Rumble channel already has thousands of views.

Lofi Girl grew a huge following of more than 11.3 million subscribers
on YouTube by live streaming lo-fi hip hop videos that feature an
animated girl wearing headphones. But over the last few years,
YouTube has erroneously taken the channel and its live streams
offline multiple times.

Most recently, YouTube temporarily took down Lofi Girl's live streams
in July after the streams were targeted with false copyright claims.

YouTube subsequently confirmed that the takedown requests on Lofi
Girl's streams were abusive and reinstated the videos. However, Lofi
Girl blasted YouTube's handling of the situation and the way it
provides no protection or manual review of false claims.

Before these July takedowns, Lofi Girl's channel was temporarily
terminated in February 2020 before YouTube restored the channel and
admitted it had made a mistake.

Lofi Girl is one of the many creators that has had to contend with
bogus YouTube copyright claims threatening their content and channel.
Anime YouTubers, soundtrack composers, journalists, and many other
creators have had their content censored after questionable or bogus
copyright claims. In its transparency reports, YouTube has revealed
that millions of videos are targeted with fraudulent or incorrect
copyright claims each year.

Before joining Rumble, YouTube was the only platform where Lofi Girl
streamed its videos which meant that when its live streams were
erroneously taken down by YouTube, they weren't available anywhere
else. Now, all of Lofi Girl's live streams and videos can be viewed
on Rumble.

Lofi Girl is one of the many creators that has embraced Rumble after
having their content taken down or censored by YouTube. Former
Congressman Dr. Ron Paul, conservative comedian and commentator
Steven Crowder, independent news network Right Side Broadcasting
Network (RSBN), and others have also made the switch.
