![]() Stolen footage. Chinese state propaganda. U.S.-registered copyright violated. CCTV: CopyCatTeleVision. Discover how China’s state broadcaster CCTV stole and misused the work of two world-traveling filmmakers — and then repeatedly lied under oath to cover it up. 👉 Quick Link: One Man Wolf Pack Brings Down CCTV: A Historic Copyright Takedown Case Study: How CCTV Lied Under Oath in the U.S. DMCA SystemWhen China’s state broadcasters steal, they don’t just take — they lie to cover it up. This case study documents how CCTV filed fraudulent DMCA counter-notifications on YouTube, swearing under penalty of perjury that they had copied only “2–3 seconds” of footage — when in reality, they copied 60 seconds across 14 separate sequences — spread throughout the production, not an isolated moment. The DMCA is U.S. law. By filing counter-notifications, CCTV submitted themselves to U.S. jurisdiction. Their false statements now expose them not only as repeat infringers, but as willful violators of U.S. copyright law. The Claim (From Their Counter-Notification)
Translation (Google Translate): Dear Team, Links to our removed content: Main Reasons We would like to appeal the above strike based on the "fair use" regulations. Thank you for your assistance in reviewing and adjudicating the issue and safeguarding our legitimate rights and interests. » They insist usage was only 2–3 seconds, when in fact it is approx. one full minute.
» They compare usage to their own video length, which is irrelevant — copyright law judges copying against the original work. » They argue that adding narration and background music is “transformative.” It is not. » They portray their channel as “non-profit.” In reality, their channel is monetized and globally available. 🚨 Why this is a critical lie:In reality, they used multiple sequences (14!) throughout this production — far more than 2–3 seconds total they claimed. Once the video transitions are being dissolved, exactly 60 seconds of our work were unlawfully reproduced by CCTV in this claimed video alone. Misuse of commentary: adding narration and background music is not transformative. Commercial exploitation: uploaded to monetized global YouTube channels with more than a million of subscribers each. 🚨 Their statement was submitted under penalty of perjury in the DMCA counter-notification process. This was not misunderstanding. It was a deliberate attempt to downplay infringement and mislead YouTube under penalty of perjury. ⚖️ The Law
By invoking “fair use” in their DMCA counter-notification(s), they explicitly asked to be judged by U.S. copyright law. They cannot now claim immunity. 🌍 The Implications
📜 ConclusionThis case study is only the beginning. It shows how quickly false claims collapse when tested against hard, timestamped evidence. CCTV’s lies are now on record — and will follow them into every legal forum where accountability is pursued. CCTV is not only caught on copyright theft — they are also caught lying under oath in the United States, multiple times, exposing themselves to fraud liability under U.S. law. Further case studies will follow, documenting each fraudulent counter-notification and every instance of perjury, until global accountability is forced upon repeat offenders. 🎥 The Reality (Our Evidence)![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() One Man Wolf Pack Brings Down CCTV: A Historic Copyright TakedownStolen footage. Chinese state propaganda. U.S.-registered copyright violated. CCTV: CopyCatTeleVision.On May 5, 2025, the YouTube channel CCTV CH — a global propaganda outlet operated by China’s state media — was permanently terminated. Not by government order. Not by diplomatic pressure. But by a single independent creator enforcing copyright law. Armed with timestamps, U.S. copyright registrations, and determination, Miroslaw Wawak (»One Man Wolf Pack) dismantled one of the most powerful state propaganda channels on YouTube. 🎥 How It HappenedThe infringement began with peaceful aerial footage of Taipei, Taiwan, hijacked by the China's PLA and twisted into a Chinese military simulation suggesting an invasion. Instead of backing down, Wawak filed DMCA takedown notices, each backed by:
CCTV tried to stall, even filing fraudulent counter-notifications claiming they used “2–3 seconds.” The truth? Just for one single production, they actually stole up to 14 sequences totaling about 60 seconds (»see above). These false statements were made under oath in the U.S. DMCA process. When the third strike landed, YouTube’s three-strike policy did the rest: CCTV CH vanished. No deals. No immunity. Just accountability. ![]() ⚖️ Civilian Copyright vs. State PropagandaThis takedown shows the power of civilian copyright enforcement. One channel gone, but the ripple effects go further:
But the message is clear: Creators have power. Copyright is a weapon of truth. “They used my peaceful footage to simulate war. That’s not Fair Use. That’s not journalism. That’s propaganda — and I’ll hold them all accountable.” — Miroslaw Wawak 🚨 The Warning to Other InfringersCCTV’s downfall is not the end — it’s the beginning of global litigation.
