TIL selling a license to public domain footage you don't own is legal...
replies:
Lol, both other commenters (at this time) didn't bother to watch the video before having an opinion. The guy downloaded a bunch of public domain footage and made it searchable and free to download. Getty was charging $400/clip for what should be and now is free.

This reminds me of the Free Law Project, where there's a large network of people that upload court documents for anything that they've paid for initial access to.
"I did it for 100% free".
5 minutes later...
"Hosting is not cheap and I only have fraction of the library big companies have. Donate to support this project".
Looks like a cool project but if significant number of people started using this he would have to start charging his users. He's creating a website that one day could compete with getty, not killed their business model.

Thank you so much! I was searching for something like this just a couple of days ago.
Did you do it with "AI"? Because that's another business model you might want to not support.
No, I'm not watching your Youtube video because business models.

~~This isn't a business model, you just used an img2img model and had the prompt day "remove the watermark". Those who make models and run the apis have a business. You (or the creator of this) do not. ~~
