If GiantBomb is playing that slippery slope bullshit then GiantBomb suck. This ism't slippery slope by any definition. They are literally just doing "yeah combatting racism is fine as long as it doesn't draw attention to us". Yeah fuck off.
The only precedent that has been sent is that if you say fucking nigger on your video some dev may decide to take your video down.
Other than that they can do this shit already. They choose not to because it benefits them. You may see them do it more but it aint gon be for any benign reasons.
Sorry to jump in here, but I just want to point out that Giant Bomb's position on all this has been somewhat misrepresented in this thread so far--they're not pushing the 'slippery slope' angle, and they certainly don't disagree that Campo had a right to do what they did. They're actually entirely in agreement that, currently, fair use as it applies to gaming videos is an incredibly nebulous and ill-defined thing, that's never been seriously tested because publishers, for the most part at least, see the work done by streamers, YouTubers and so on as a net benefit to their business. Their point was simply that racist, irresponsible man-child fuckwits like PewDiePie are pushing us closer and closer to having that fight - over what can and can't be done with video games in an internet video context - finally take place.
Anyways, if you want to hear them explain their position in more depth, they go into it on last week's Bombcast -
jump to, like, 1hr40mins - in some detail. I'm not saying I entirely agree with everything they've said, to be clear--just that, hey, I think they've been somewhat misrepresented here, at least based on my interpretation of what was said.
Anyways, just to make my position on all this clear: fuck PewDiePie, fuck these review bombing arseholes, and good on Campo for taking a stand.
