I hate to see shit like this happen (especially when the guy in question looks like a lech from the context of the original video), so I've made a thread about this to try get more attention and emailed a few sites as well.
I hope this blows up in his face.

Oh I definitely agree. His claim to profit off the videos is just as strong as KSI's. Sauce for the goose...

KSI has made this now blow up. Good job. Time for someone to make the reddit thread.

I like how the whole thing is that KSI is a dick because he's rude to people... expressed by calling him a twat. The internet is always funny like that.

Matt put the video back up but replace the offending bits with black and white clips of fully dressed dogs walking about on their hind quarters.
Same, I thought there were methods to recover removed youtube videos if you did it quickly enough? Or are they redundant now?

no, the point here is that he abused YouTube's copyright claim system to remove a video that called out his misogyny and general lack of class, further emphasising how much of a twat he is.
because he is one.

Not really, the people who find his schtick funny will still find it funny. Like it or not there is a market for this sort of lower-than-a-snail's-arse "comedy".
Pretty stupid for MS to be hiring KSI but the lad has been getting shit for quite some time. He used to upload some genuinely good Fifa videos but the more popular he got the more immature and the further away from Fifa he got.
On one hand you have to give it to the guy for making himself a tidy living through YouTube but on the other it's sad to see him act like a complete twat just to stay cool to his legion of pre pubescent fans. Thing is.....it's arguably made him more popular than ever.

You seem to be making a lot of excuses for this guy. If he truly was a comedian he'd be able to stand by what he said without resorting to taking down this video.

I've made excuses for nobody. He was a dick in the videos. I've said that. Find me saying he was in the right. All I've expressed is
1) confusion over the typical GAF outrage that the world isn't pretty and perfect
2) that it's laughable to say companies making some of the most violent game content out there are "Family friendly"
3) and that a company that hires women to be strippers but not quite probably gives two shits about how some guy talks to them.
4) and the irony in pointing out someone's misogyny by calling them a twat.
Not a single excuse made for this guy. I'd never heard of him before this and don't think he's that funny (although I did chuckle at one of his jokes). I've got no stake in this other than being entertained during a slow work day by GAF reactions.
I like the false equivalence between calling KSI a twat and KSI's behavior on that video. The internet is always funny like that.
Sometimes it's ok to be rude to people. Talking to this grade-A asshole is one of those times. Being rude to a woman who's just trying to do her job at a convention is not one of those times.

Are you really trying to imply that there's some sort of irony there? He behaves like a twat, so he gets called out. It's not hard to understand and there is no Hypocrisy in it.
The difference between insulting him, and what he does is that as for as I'm aware the girls in his videos hadn't done anything to deserve questions like "Where are your tits?" and "What do you do when you're not fingering yourself?" Unless you think they did?

So Matt makes a video to tell people about KSI and he responds by putting a copyright claim on the video? What an absolute cock. Matt should just re upload the video and edit out the parts with KSI and insert info as to what was there and why it has been removed

Good. Then KSI can't do shit about it and he comes off looking even worse
Really, is that what you think the job description is for those front facing PR people?
So really its their fault for answering the ad, they should expect to be treated with no respect by people on camera, to have their apperance mocked, recorded and then uploaded to all.
[edit]
You know what thats a bit of an extreme jab back at you matey, I don't think you really mean that I just don't think his behavious (especially, "where are your tits?") should be allowed and rewarded by large companies. Neither should any good-looking PR expect to be ridiculed just because of their position.

About as useful as calling someone a twat, dick, or any other reference to anatomy.
I may have been crass, but how is that not an apt description of a "booth babe?"
And yes, I'd say any company hiring "booth babes" probably gives two craps about them being exposed to sexually inappropriate conversation. If they did, they'd hire attendants of all sexes and put them in outfits not created for the purpose of using sexuality as an attention getting device.

Brilliant, he is absolutely spot on and definitely I'd consider him ONE OF US, ONE OF US, ONE OF US!
It's great to see this after all the talk of journalistic integrity over the last few months.

I had never heard of the KSI guy. I watched the video in question and it was kind of funny. I'm pretty sure the joke was how offensive it was. This uproar is kind of like getting mad at Borat.
I could've saved the video but I totally forgot and refreshed the page. Fuck sake.

I'm surprised, I just watched the whole thing and it seemed fine?
Oh wait I just remembered there was one clip where it shows him with Oxlade-Chamberlain.
