    The title/article isn’t about the damage its doing to people using it. It’s implying that Disney is going to actively give trouble to people using it, when it was nothing other than a mistake that was bound to happen anyway.

    I’m not saying it didn’t significantly impact the creator, I’m saying Disney backing off the bad claim is not significant. It’s what Disney was always going to do, it’s just that “Disney and youtube accidentally flag Steamboat Willie stuff” isn’t as clickbaity. .
