- 0:00Hello everyone, dear listeners. Today I
- 0:03will tell you a scary, true story that
- 0:06happened to me. About how I was
- 0:09threatened with lawsuits and cyber
- 0:11police, how my channel got a strike,
- 0:13and how I realized that I am truly
- 0:15surrounded by a large audience. Because
- 0:18the likelihood of running into the
- 0:20person we’ll talk about today grows
- 0:23when there are really a lot of people
- 0:25around you. I hope this video will
- 0:27entertain my regular listeners. And it
- 0:30will also be useful for narrators,
- 0:33publishers, literary platforms, and
- 0:36those who organize contests. I want to
- 0:40tell you my story and give you a little
- 0:43warning. So, make yourselves
- 0:45comfortable and let’s listen to my
- 0:48story. As you know, in July of this
- 0:50year, we started the "Potorichchia"
- 0:52contest on our channel. It involves
- 0:55writers—young authors or experienced
- 0:58ones—submitting their works to the
- 1:01contest. We select the best ones, voice
- 1:04them, then there’s a vote among
- 1:06listeners, we choose the winners, and
- 1:08award them with financial prizes.
- 1:11Shortly after the contest started, I
- 1:13think around July 15th, an author by
- 1:16the name of Vladyslav Hryshkevych
- 1:18submitted his work. I accepted the work
- 1:22, and as I usually do, I thanked him
- 1:24and recommended he subscribe to our
- 1:27Telegram channel so he wouldn't miss
- 1:29news, updates about the contest, and so
- 1:32on. And literally the next day,
- 1:34Vladyslav Hryshkevych commented on one
- 1:36of the posts on my Telegram channel.
- 1:39What the post was about doesn’t
- 1:40matter, but what matters is the manner
- 1:42and tone in which Vladyslav began
- 1:44commenting on that situation I had
- 1:45written about. He treated that
- 1:48situation and the authors—
- 1:50specifically, the author I am working
- 1:52with—with contempt. He started
- 1:54arguing with me and trying to prove
- 1:55something to me. He said that the
- 1:57author had an inflated ego. He started
- 1:59making conclusions about a stranger
- 2:02that were completely unfounded. I got
- 2:05curious about who this person
- 2:06commenting was, because many people
- 2:08write and I can’t remember everyone.
- 2:10I saw that the nickname looked familiar
- 2:12. And then I realized that this person
- 2:13had submitted a work to me for the
- 2:15contest just yesterday. And it was his
- 2:16nickname. Well, I became curious about
- 2:18what kind of person he was. I went to
- 2:20Google and typed in his name, Vladyslav
- 2:23Hryshkevych, to see what kind of
- 2:25interesting character he was. What I
- 2:29saw there, well, as they say, my ears
- 2:31curled up. On his social media pages,
- 2:35he talks about how he worked with the
- 2:38Arkush platform, which we all know very
- 2:41well, Booknet, and other publications.
- 2:45He called Arkush a swamp where
- 2:47lawlessness and nepotism reign, where
- 2:49everyone has conspired against talent,
- 2:51and where talents are pushed out and
- 2:52blocked. Well, by "talents," he, of
- 2:55course, means himself. I have been
- 2:57collaborating with the Arkush platform
- 2:59for a very long time. I know that the
- 3:01owner of Arkush serves in the Armed
- 3:02Forces of Ukraine. I can only say good
- 3:05things about this platform, exclusively
- 3:07. And those screenshots that Vladyslav
- 3:10Hryshkevych posted on his social media
- 3:12pages, showing how he fights with
- 3:14everyone, nitpicks everything, and
- 3:16twists things around. I mean, he brings
- 3:19negativity upon himself, and then he
- 3:21accuses people of bullying him when
- 3:23they respond in the same manner. "They
- 3:25are bullying me, they are insulting me,
- 3:27" and all that. I looked at all of this
- 3:30and wondered what I should do.
- 3:32Accepting such a person into the
- 3:34contest threatens bad consequences, as
- 3:37there could be a lot of problems,
- 3:39because a contest involves evaluating
- 3:42work based on a scoring scale and votes
- 3:45. This person is confrontational; he
- 3:47might disagree with the scores he was
- 3:49given. There could be insults,
- 3:51arguments with other authors, with the
- 3:54audience, and with us as organizers and
- 3:56the jury. While I was thinking about
- 4:00this and consulting with my team on
- 4:02what to do, a heated discussion was
- 4:04meanwhile boiling in Telegram. Our
- 4:06admin Ruslan had already joined in. He
- 4:09is an active military serviceman. He
- 4:11tried to calm him down so he would stop
- 4:14arguing and writing such unpleasant
- 4:16things. Well, when you go to someone's
- 4:20house as a guest, please, behave
- 4:22politely and decently, or don't come at
- 4:24all; if you don't like anything, why
- 4:26did you even come here? I am looking at
- 4:30all of this, and I decide that we are
- 4:32ending our cooperation with Mr.
- 4:33Vladyslav right now, because if the
- 4:35degree of conflict and arguing is this
- 4:37high already, what will happen next? So
- 4:41, I write to him that his participation
- 4:44in the contest is denied. We are not
- 4:46accepting your work, goodbye. I block
- 4:49him on Telegram so he won't write to me
- 4:51anymore, because there is no point in
- 4:53talking to this person; you tell him
- 4:55one thing, he twists everything and
- 4:57says something completely different
- 4:58back to you. In short, we blocked him,
- 5:01removed his work from the list, and
- 5:04went on to mind our own business.
- 5:07Literally the next day, Vladyslav [
- 5:10posted] on a platform with a small
- 5:15number of followers, namely AWS, a
- 5:17little article about us. You could only
- 5:21call it an "article" with a huge
- 5:22stretch, because what he wrote there—
- 5:24I cannot show you screenshots here,
- 5:26because that would be a formal pretext
- 5:28for him to complain to YouTube about
- 5:30this video to get it deleted, claiming
- 5:32we are using his written work without
- 5:34his consent. There is such a loophole
- 5:36in the YouTube rules, and he could use
- 5:38it. And so I will not provide
- 5:40screenshots here, and I certainly
- 5:41won’t read anything out, because I
- 5:43find it disgusting to read. All the
- 5:44original sources are saved in my
- 5:46Telegram. For those who aren’t on
- 5:47Telegram, please reach out. If you are
- 5:49really, well, interested, I will
- 5:50provide everything to you. He openly
- 5:54mocked me there, my appearance, my
- 5:56vision impairment, and even my age. As
- 5:59if he himself will never be older. He
- 6:02will be forever young and drunk, as
- 6:04they say. He mocked our admin Ruslan, a
- 6:07service member. He mocked his injuries.
- 6:10Well, in particular, Mr. Ruslan said
- 6:12that he has a concussion, and he called
- 6:14him a "concussed one." I will not
- 6:16repeat that word. In short, if you want
- 6:18, you can ask me, and I will tell you,
- 6:20because that article has been deleted
- 6:22now. But I have saved the screenshots.
- 6:25There was so much, well, just such
- 6:27filth and profanity there. It is simply
- 6:31beyond the pale. Well, how he turned
- 6:34his rich inner world inside out, and
- 6:36all his writing talent, if he even has
- 6:38any, of course, he poured it all out
- 6:40there. It really came from the soul. On
- 6:45that Anyos platform, there were later a
- 6:47few more articles about our contest,
- 6:49and about everyone, everyone, everyone,
- 6:51and about the admins, and that we are
- 6:52all, every one of us, siblings here.
- 6:55That I am the head toad here, and
- 6:56everyone around me serves me. Well, in
- 6:57short, something like that. He made it
- 6:59up and wrote it all down. It was very
- 7:02unpleasant. I posted it on Telegram,
- 7:04and people there were also in shock.
- 7:08And after some time, we managed to
- 7:10contact the management of the Anyos
- 7:12platform. To show them what kind of
- 7:15lawlessness is actually happening there
- 7:17. And they deleted this post, well,
- 7:19forced him to delete it, and changed
- 7:21their rules. They took certain measures
- 7:23, but I still consider it insufficient,
- 7:25because they should have just blocked
- 7:26him. But that is their business. I
- 7:29won’t be dictating any advice here.
- 7:32Well, it seems the story ended; yes, it
- 7:33was unpleasant, yes, all sorts of
- 7:35things happen. And it seems like we
- 7:37forgot about it all and went on living
- 7:40our lives. Somewhere around September,
- 7:44I voiced a story by Serhiy Klemin. It
- 7:46was called "The Package." He wrote it
- 7:48himself and offered it to me for
- 7:50voice-over. This is not our first joint
- 7:52work. We have been collaborating for a
- 7:53long time. I voice his stories.
- 7:54Everything between us was, so to speak,
- 7:56going well. And I voiced this story as
- 7:59well. It was about a photograph of four
- 8:02friends, three of whom died in a plane
- 8:04crash. And well, one remained. He
- 8:07received this photograph, which was
- 8:08taken, well, in the last minutes of
- 8:10their lives, you know, before boarding
- 8:12the plane. And then all those friends
- 8:14who had died began to come to life and
- 8:16step out of the photograph. Well,
- 8:18it’s a fairly well-known plot; there
- 8:20are many similar stories in literature
- 8:22about cameras and photographs from
- 8:23which some dead people would emerge,
- 8:25followed by something terrible.
- 8:27Actually, there are quite a few.
- 8:28Stephen King alone has several works,
- 8:31well, on this theme. Many people write
- 8:33about this. But, well, Mr. Vladyslav,
- 8:37who previously accused Arkush of
- 8:39stealing his works, also accused the
- 8:41platform Booknet of, supposedly,
- 8:43stealing something from him too. Well,
- 8:46because there was a story with a
- 8:47contest on Booknet as well. He
- 8:50disagreed with the criticism, was
- 8:51deeply offended that he was criticized,
- 8:53and believed that they were bad, they
- 8:55criticized me, they stole my work. And
- 8:59when he heard this voice-over of mine
- 9:01for Serhiy Klemin, I am sure that he
- 9:03was tracking every one of my works and
- 9:05saw a similarity. Well, because where
- 9:07else would he even know about it? Only
- 9:09from my channel. He started accusing me
- 9:13of stealing his idea, writing a work—
- 9:16well, Serhiy Klemin wrote it and it was
- 9:19voiced. He began writing that it was,
- 9:22how did it sound, some sort of
- 9:24primitive plagiarism, or something like
- 9:27that he kept writing. Literally under
- 9:30every comment he spammed this phrase,
- 9:31that it was plagiarism, well, under
- 9:33Serhiy Klemin's video. I blocked him
- 9:35along with his comments. I just smiled
- 9:38to myself quietly. I thought, well,
- 9:40people have different perceptions, what
- 9:42can you do. But Mr. Vladyslav
- 9:44Hryshkevych did not stop at writing
- 9:47comments under my video. He started
- 9:50writing about the alleged plagiarism on
- 9:52his social media. It was quite strange
- 9:55to read all of this. I thought, let the
- 9:57person write if they want to. That's
- 9:58what he thinks; well, some people think
- 9:59they are Napoleon, and some people
- 10:01think their work was stolen. Well,
- 10:03there are different, you know,
- 10:04hallucinations that people have. I
- 10:06didn't even give it any serious
- 10:07consideration. I have plenty of other
- 10:09things to do, lots of work for the
- 10:10contest, and outside the contest. Well,
- 10:12in general, there is just no time for
- 10:15this, for digging into this, so to
- 10:17speak, unpleasant, brown sludge. But I
- 10:21wake up in the morning and see an email
- 10:23from YouTube the next day that a strike
- 10:25is hitting my channel, that someone,
- 10:27Vladyslav Hryshkevych, filed a strike
- 10:29against the channel. A strike is a
- 10:32copyright complaint, for those who
- 10:33don't know. And my video by author
- 10:37Serhiy Klemin was removed from YouTube.
- 10:41I am just in shock, how is this
- 10:42possible? How is he not the author? He,
- 10:45well, cannot prove his authorship. He
- 10:47shouldn't be able to, at least. I
- 10:50started looking into what was happening
- 10:53and what could be done about it. Well,
- 10:56according to YouTube rules, anyone
- 10:57running a channel knows about strikes.
- 11:00First of all, if you get three, the
- 11:01channel is simply deleted. It’s an
- 11:04unpleasant situation on its own, even
- 11:08one is unpleasant, but considering
- 11:11it’s completely unfair and has no
- 11:14basis whatsoever. There were two
- 11:18options: either contact the person who
- 11:21issued the strike and try to resolve it
- 11:23peacefully. Well, that was certainly
- 11:25not our option. That was immediately
- 11:28off the table. Or, file a so-called
- 11:30counter-notification. Where you explain
- 11:34why this strike is not, so to speak,
- 11:37valid or justified. YouTube reviews
- 11:39this counter-notification manually, as
- 11:41far as I understood. And if they deem
- 11:45it fair, they forward it to the person
- 11:48who issued the strike, in our case
- 11:50Hryshkevych, and give them 10 business
- 11:53days to sue over this whole situation.
- 11:58Because YouTube itself, like Google,
- 12:00does not deal with plagiarism cases, as
- 12:02it is not within their competence to
- 12:03prove who stole an idea from whom. It
- 12:06needs to be handled by specially
- 12:08trained people, so to speak, special
- 12:09experts. In parallel with this strike,
- 12:13when I received it, I saw on
- 12:15Hryshkevych’s page that he was
- 12:17sending out letters to everyone
- 12:19literally—publishers, literary groups
- 12:22, including my partners, people I work
- 12:24with—claiming that Serhiy Klemin and
- 12:27the "Strashno Tsikavo" channel are
- 12:29engaged in plagiarism, distributing
- 12:32stolen works, counterfeit items, and so
- 12:34on. It should be said that Hryshkevych
- 12:38has a secondary legal education and
- 12:40knows how to draft legal letters. And
- 12:43at first glance, it might seem that he
- 12:45is a lawyer. He writes himself that he
- 12:47is a lawyer, but that is not actually
- 12:49the case, because having a diploma from
- 12:51a legal college doesn't make one a
- 12:52lawyer. That’s right. I later showed
- 12:56his letters to an acquaintance of mine,
- 12:58a lawyer and attorney with many years
- 13:00of experience. He said that every job
- 13:03has a so-called professional touch,
- 13:06some kind of experience. You can see
- 13:08that experience in every piece of work,
- 13:11nuances that only professionals know.
- 13:13And Mr. Hryshkevych has zero experience
- 13:15. Big and round zero. He is just a
- 13:17student who finished a law college. He
- 13:21has no work experience as a lawyer, no
- 13:23practical experience whatsoever. But
- 13:25people who are not in the loop, who
- 13:27don't know all these nuances, well,
- 13:29perhaps it makes a terrifying
- 13:31impression on some, that you are being
- 13:33threatened with criminal code articles.
- 13:36They address you in such formal
- 13:38language. When I received this strike,
- 13:40I posted the MP3 version of Serhiy
- 13:42Klemin's story on Telegram and said
- 13:43that anyone who hadn't listened yet
- 13:45could listen there. For now, the video
- 13:47is deleted, but it will be restored in
- 13:4910 business days. This angered Mr.
- 13:52Vladyslav very, very much. He wrote me
- 13:55an official warning with threats and
- 13:58ultimatums, demanding that I delete
- 14:00this work from Telegram and all
- 14:03platforms under my control, otherwise
- 14:05he would turn to the cyber police, the
- 14:08court, and I would have to pay him
- 14:11moral damages. He gave me 24 hours to
- 14:14do it. Well, I laughed at it, again,
- 14:18because, well, what court, what cyber
- 14:20police, what are you even talking about
- 14:23? And also, he started writing letters
- 14:26to all publishers, all my partners, and
- 14:29my acquaintances, who then contacted me
- 14:31and said: "Ms. Kateryna, what is this
- 14:34strange letter that arrived, in which
- 14:36your name appears?" Well, I explain it
- 14:39to people, and they also grab their
- 14:40heads, saying: "Goodness, what is this?
- 14:42We have never seen anything like this."
- 14:45Well, I thank Mr. Vladyslav, because
- 14:47thanks to this situation he created, I
- 14:49renewed contacts with many people. Our
- 14:52professional connections have become
- 14:54stronger, I believe. This is, well, a
- 14:57bit of a bonus. I filed a
- 14:59counter-notification according to
- 15:01YouTube's rules. The basis of this
- 15:05appeal was the fact that Serhiy
- 15:07Klemin's work "The Parcel" was written
- 15:09before Vladyslav Hryshkevych's work "
- 15:12Polaroid." I turned to Serhiy Klemin,
- 15:16because he was also publicly accusing
- 15:18him, writing libel about him, and
- 15:20telling everyone that he was a pirate
- 15:22and a plagiarist. And Mr. Klemin sent
- 15:26me a link from January 19, 2026,
- 15:28meaning half a year before
- 15:30Hryshkevych's story appeared, Mr.
- 15:32Serhiy Klemin had posted it on the
- 15:35Blogger portal. Well, it's a portal
- 15:38from Google where you can create your
- 15:39own blogs and write your own posts
- 15:40there. It was in a slightly different
- 15:43edition, but it was still the story I
- 15:45had narrated. Well, it's obvious. You
- 15:47don't need to be an expert to
- 15:48understand that the story "The Parcel"
- 15:50was created half a year earlier than
- 15:52the story "Polaroid." Well, Mr. Serhiy
- 15:55also said that he has several friends
- 15:57and acquaintances who are witnesses and
- 15:59will confirm that they read the story "
- 16:01The Parcel" back in the winter of last
- 16:03year, at a time when no one had even
- 16:06heard of Vladyslav Hryshkevych. In my
- 16:09counter-notification to YouTube, I
- 16:11included this link and pointed out that
- 16:13it was published on January 19th, which
- 16:15is six months before Vladislav
- 16:16Grishkevich's story appeared. Therefore
- 16:19, Grishkevich cannot claim that we
- 16:21stole anything from him, because his
- 16:23work appeared later. By the way, he
- 16:25himself wrote that his story "Polaroid"
- 16:27was created specifically for the "
- 16:29Scarily Interesting" contest. And the "
- 16:32Scarily Interesting" contest started in
- 16:34July of '26, which is half a year later
- 16:36than when the post was published. So,
- 16:39it just doesn't add up. Not at all. I
- 16:41submitted this counter-appeal. It only
- 16:44went through on the third try, because
- 16:46YouTube, well, they don't always review
- 16:47them. To write such appeals so that
- 16:50they are successful. Even if you know
- 16:52you are right, you need to completely
- 16:54turn off your emotions and stick to
- 16:56facts, facts, dry facts. Otherwise, you
- 16:59might have problems, like I did, when
- 17:00they didn't even accept it the first
- 17:02time. But that’s another story. At
- 17:05the same time, while I was dealing with
- 17:06this appeal, while I was wasting my
- 17:08nerves, time, and energy on it instead
- 17:10of working on the channel, Mr. Serhiy
- 17:12Klemin was trying to talk to Vladislav
- 17:13Grishkevich to prove to him that his
- 17:15work was written earlier. He wrote him
- 17:19very polite letters, showing the HTML
- 17:22code of the page on Blogger, where it
- 17:24was visible—well, in the page code
- 17:27it's visible—that it was published in
- 17:30January '26. Well, he provided all
- 17:33kinds of technical proof that his work
- 17:34had been published earlier. And instead
- 17:38of admitting he was wrong or trying to
- 17:40engage in any kind of constructive
- 17:43dialogue, Vladislav Grishkevich
- 17:44publicly stated on his Facebook that we
- 17:47had falsified and forged the
- 17:49publication date of the post, and that
- 17:51it was actually published later. Bravo!
- 17:56But that’s not all he did. His next
- 18:00step was an attempt to remove the work
- 18:03published on the Blogger platform that
- 18:07belongs to Serhiy Klemin. He sent in
- 18:10that same little "piece of junk"
- 18:13complaint of his. I can't call it
- 18:15anything else, claiming that we had
- 18:17allegedly plagiarized him. I mean, he
- 18:19found arguments for why he even
- 18:21considered it plagiarism. He found, I
- 18:25think, six or eight similar plot points
- 18:28—that supposedly both his story and
- 18:31Klemin's are about a photograph, and
- 18:34both use the motif of a sick relative,
- 18:37only there it was a mother and here it
- 18:40was a wife. He found eight generally
- 18:43accepted plot tropes that are used in
- 18:45literature. Well, many authors use
- 18:48those. That cannot be considered
- 18:49plagiarism, because we all read things
- 18:51in our lives. Something influences us,
- 18:54our worldviews. And, well, this is not
- 18:57plagiarism, because in Clemin's work
- 18:59the events took place in an American
- 19:01setting, while in Hryshkevych's, they
- 19:03were here in Ukraine. Well, it's all
- 19:05completely different; yes, there are
- 19:07some similarities, of course, but there
- 19:09is much more that is different. And the
- 19:12most interesting thing is that this
- 19:14post, with which he supposedly proved
- 19:17that we stole his story, was a text he
- 19:19most likely generated in ChatGPT by
- 19:22giving it such a task: "Here we have
- 19:24two works. One is mine, and one is not.
- 19:28Prove that my work was stolen." And if
- 19:31you give ChatGPT such a task, it will,
- 19:33of course, play along with you. It will
- 19:36find you 28 common features because its
- 19:38task is to play along and flatter the
- 19:40person. Well, I work with it a lot
- 19:43myself. And everyone who works with
- 19:45ChatGPT asks it questions and
- 19:47communicates with it. Well, you
- 19:49probably know that if you give it the
- 19:51task: "Oh, find evidence that I was
- 19:53stolen from," well, it will find it.
- 19:57For fun, my team and I even gave it the
- 19:59task of finding commonalities between a
- 20:02fan and a human heart. And imagine, it
- 20:06found them; there were such twists that
- 20:08the human brain wouldn't even think of.
- 20:10These are just generated common
- 20:12features that don't prove the existence
- 20:15of plagiarism at all. But,
- 20:17unfortunately, he fed this, well, this
- 20:20artificial text written by a robot. He
- 20:24fed it to another robot built into
- 20:26YouTube, the same one built into Google
- 20:28. And this robot, of course, swallowed
- 20:31it and decided that we had plagiarized
- 20:34his work. Well, I don't see any other
- 20:36explanation. This is not an expert
- 20:39opinion. And the fact that he wrote
- 20:42there that it's a verdict from Google,
- 20:44that even Google admitted my work was
- 20:46plagiarized. That is proof. That is not
- 20:48proof at all. It's just that the robot
- 20:50made a mistake. Robots often make
- 20:52mistakes. This happens everywhere all
- 20:54the time. Well, there is a lot of it.
- 20:57And when I personally wrote the appeal,
- 20:59a person must have read it there and
- 21:01seen it, because they didn't accept it
- 21:03the first time; they were asking me
- 21:05some clarifying questions. And the
- 21:08person realized that there was no
- 21:10plagiarism, that the video was actually
- 21:12published six months earlier, and that
- 21:14closes all questions. And, of course,
- 21:17the strike on my channel was,
- 21:18fortunately, removed. And, well, the
- 21:22ten-day period began, which was granted
- 21:24to Mr. Hryshkevych to file a lawsuit,
- 21:26well, and provide proof of the legal
- 21:28action. If he had provided them, well,
- 21:30my video wouldn't have been deleted and
- 21:32the strike on the channel would have
- 21:33been reversed. But, of course, he has
- 21:35nothing to take to court. These aren't
- 21:37proofs; they are, well, so to speak,
- 21:40simply ridiculous. 10 days have passed,
- 21:44today my video was restored, and I
- 21:47didn't see any evidence for a court
- 21:49case. Instead, I saw massive defamation
- 21:53from Mr. Hryshkevych. He, well, damaged
- 21:56my reputation, and damaged Serhiy
- 21:58Klemin's reputation. He called everyone
- 22:02who supported Serhiy Klemin and me the
- 22:04worst names because Serhiy wrote a post
- 22:06on Facebook where he, well, shared his
- 22:08view on this situation. People
- 22:10supported him, and Mr. Hryshkevych
- 22:13screenshotted it all and posted it on
- 22:15his own page. As if a campaign of
- 22:17harassment had started against him.
- 22:20That he’s being bullied, that he’s
- 22:22being insulted. Well, once again, this
- 22:24same old song, our song is good and new
- 22:27, let's start it all over: if you can't
- 22:29, well, somehow refute the evidence,
- 22:31you start playing the victim, claiming
- 22:33everyone around is bad. He has used
- 22:35this not once, not twice, and not three
- 22:38times. Well, this scenario is getting a
- 22:40bit tiresome. I want him to change the
- 22:42record a little, well, to start
- 22:44learning something. I thought for a
- 22:46long time whether or not to tell you
- 22:49this story. Well, because, as they say,
- 22:52don't stir the pot and it won't stink.
- 22:55I know that after this video, there
- 22:57will be 500 more episodes on his
- 22:59Facebook page about me—how bad I am,
- 23:01how old and cross-eyed I am, whatever
- 23:03else he’s said about me and everyone
- 23:05around me. I know it will happen. Well,
- 23:08he’s only giving himself bad
- 23:09publicity with this. If he still hasn't
- 23:11realized this and it hasn't dawned on
- 23:12him yet, then let me give you a hint.
- 23:15You are giving yourself bad publicity;
- 23:17no one will work with you, and they
- 23:20already aren't. Not because you're so
- 23:22talented, exceptional, and everyone is
- 23:24afraid of your competition, but because
- 23:26people go to your page, see all this,
- 23:28and don't want to get involved with you
- 23:30. Well, just a little hint, don't
- 23:33mention it. Well, just so you
- 23:35understand the level of cynicism and
- 23:38such insolence. Well, I can't even find
- 23:41the words for this person. Well, now he
- 23:44is trying, well, so to speak, to become
- 23:46famous, to push his name using war
- 23:48topics. He writes stories about the war
- 23:51, such touching, tear-jerking ones.
- 23:54Well, or ChatGPT writes them for him: "
- 23:55There are different options." I mean,
- 23:57he insulted our soldier, calling him
- 24:00the worst names. There is proof of this
- 24:02. And then he writes little stories
- 24:07about the war to touch people's hearts,
- 24:10to, so to speak, sway them so they’d
- 24:13sympathize with him or take his side. "
- 24:17Look how good I am, I write about
- 24:18soldiers, about the war, about how
- 24:20terrible it all is." In other words,
- 24:24it's a cheap manipulation of a painful
- 24:27topic that resonates with many people,
- 24:30while he himself calls soldiers names
- 24:33and mocks their trauma. Again, I have
- 24:37all the proof. I just don't want to
- 24:38publish it here. I repeat, I can
- 24:41forgive and understand many things in
- 24:43life, but what I hate most in people is
- 24:45hypocrisy. When you pretend to be
- 24:49something you're not at all, it's
- 24:51always infuriated and disgusted me,
- 24:53ever since I was a child. Well, right
- 24:57now, unfortunately, many people use the
- 25:00topic of war and patriotism to somehow
- 25:02whitewash themselves. And it works very
- 25:06well because everyone is traumatized
- 25:08and emotional. Everyone has various
- 25:11traumas from the war, and yet there are
- 25:13scumbags who take advantage of this,
- 25:15writing little stories about the war
- 25:17while calling soldiers the worst names.
- 25:20And when I see this person submitting
- 25:22stories about the war, or stray animals
- 25:24, or whatever else he dreams up to
- 25:26contests, well, you don't even need to
- 25:28think. You just throw a prompt into
- 25:31ChatGPT: "Come up with 10 heartbreaking
- 25:33topics so people will cry." And it will
- 25:36come up with them, and it will do a
- 25:37decent job. And it will seem like you
- 25:39came up with it and lived through it
- 25:41yourself. He's using this right now.
- 25:44And that is why I urge you to share
- 25:46this video as widely as possible,
- 25:49everywhere you can, so that people know
- 25:51what is really inside this person and
- 25:54what is behind his tear-jerking war
- 25:56stories. I am recording this video
- 26:00because the problem is actually much
- 26:02broader than just this story. Well,
- 26:05first of all, it lies in the fact that
- 26:07I want to warn people against working
- 26:09with this individual. He will create
- 26:12problems for you. He has created
- 26:14problems and scandals for others, not
- 26:16just me. There were many other
- 26:19situations where he tried to submit his
- 26:22work somewhere. Something wouldn't
- 26:25please him, and then everyone else was
- 26:26the villain. But even that is not the
- 26:29most important problem I see in this
- 26:31situation. The next problem is a
- 26:34massive loophole. I believe it's a
- 26:38loophole, a flaw in YouTube, that you
- 26:40can get offended by a channel, generate
- 26:43some nonsense, fabricate plagiarism
- 26:46accusations, and file it as a copyright
- 26:48strike against a channel. I’ve looked
- 26:51it up, and such cases exist. I am not
- 26:53the only one who has suffered like this
- 26:55. There are other channels that have
- 26:57had, well, strikes manufactured against
- 26:59them specifically for various reasons.
- 27:01Whether it's some kind of haters or who
- 27:02knows who. And so I am addressing those
- 27:05who have YouTube channels, especially
- 27:07popular ones. Be careful, because when
- 27:10you work with a large number of people,
- 27:13when a large audience gathers around
- 27:15you, of course, the probability
- 27:16increases that some bad person will be
- 27:19found who, for one reason or another,
- 27:21wants to harm you. And to make sure
- 27:24they don't take advantage of this
- 27:25loophole that, unfortunately, exists on
- 27:27YouTube. Yes, you will beat the strike,
- 27:30but it will cost you nerves, time, and
- 27:33resources that you would prefer to
- 27:36direct toward something more useful and
- 27:39necessary. But unfortunately, you have
- 27:42to spend it proving that you're
- 27:44innocent, writing these appeals, these
- 27:46letters, and enduring this endless
- 27:48correspondence, because on YouTube, it
- 27:50is very difficult to reach a real
- 27:52person. Everything there is automated,
- 27:55everything happens through these chains
- 27:58. Well, it's difficult. But the
- 28:00procedure provided for false strikes
- 28:03does exist, even if it is unpleasant.
- 28:05Still, I think we somehow need to
- 28:08protect ourselves from this, be
- 28:10cautious, and at least know that such
- 28:12things are possible. I am telling you
- 28:15this story, dear colleagues, so that
- 28:16you know how things can happen. And
- 28:19finally, I would like to end with a
- 28:22rhetorical thought that when a person
- 28:24with a not-quite-healthy psyche—I'm
- 28:27not a psychiatrist, but people who saw
- 28:30this behavior were unanimous in saying
- 28:32that something is not right there. And
- 28:36when you give such a person freedom or
- 28:39any influence, well, firstly, a Putin
- 28:41can grow out of such a person. Let's be
- 28:44honest, he probably also once imagined
- 28:46something in his head, that Ukraine
- 28:48doesn't exist and that Lenin invented
- 28:51it, and started a little war. I think
- 28:54that, fortunately, Grishkevich does not
- 28:56have such influence, so to speak, or
- 28:59such opportunities, because most likely
- 29:01he doesn't even work; a person who has
- 29:03a job simply doesn't have the time to
- 29:06engage in such nonsense. But he thinks
- 29:09he is a writer, a great artist, a
- 29:12lawyer. He wants to stroke his ego so
- 29:14that it grows. In what way? Well, by
- 29:17saying that I was stolen from. Look at
- 29:19what a scandal, how they dared. They
- 29:22stole from someone as talented as me.
- 29:24And he looks, and this post of his was
- 29:27read not by five people as usual, but
- 29:29by ten. Quite the "successful success."
- 29:32That's it. Then let's do it again.
- 29:34Stolen again, stolen again. He’s just
- 29:36so talented, and they keep stealing
- 29:37from him. Yes, everyone. Because they
- 29:39can’t do anything themselves, they
- 29:40only steal from him. I suggest changing
- 29:42the record, because this is becoming
- 29:44uninteresting and predictable. But I,
- 29:47well, I would like to end with a
- 29:49different thought. If you give such
- 29:52people a free internet, a sense of
- 29:55impunity to do whatever they want
- 29:58online, well, it can create these kinds
- 30:01of problems. Of course, it’s good
- 30:03that he doesn’t walk the streets
- 30:05attacking people, but instead does his
- 30:06nasty deeds online. Well, better that
- 30:08than if he were walking about. But
- 30:10still, it is unpleasant. And I
- 30:12emphasize once again: be careful. All
- 30:14of you who collaborate with him, or
- 30:16might collaborate. Be careful. I ask
- 30:20you to share this video on social media
- 30:22, distribute it as much as possible so
- 30:25it reaches the largest number of
- 30:27writers, owners of literary platforms,
- 30:30those who organize contests, various
- 30:32activities, and so on. YouTube
- 30:35narrators. Again, please, I am begging
- 30:37you, do not take his works for
- 30:39voiceovers. You’ll record it, he
- 30:41won't like something, he’ll hit you
- 30:43with a strike, and you won’t be able
- 30:45to prove he gave you permission,
- 30:47because proving that legally is really
- 30:49difficult. A screenshot of him giving
- 30:51you something—that is not proof, by
- 30:53the way. Actually, that is the reason I
- 30:55turned him down back in the day,
- 30:57because I considered the possibility
- 30:59that if he didn't like something, he
- 31:01would complain about me later. But I
- 31:02could never have imagined that I would
- 31:04turn him down and he would still hit me
- 31:06with a strike. Well, that was simply
- 31:08beyond my wildest imagination. So
- 31:12that’s your bedtime story for the
- 31:13night. I wish for you to never
- 31:16encounter such people. Be careful. I
- 31:20hope that this is the last such case.
- 31:23The first and last such case in my
- 31:26career. Take care of yourselves. Yeah.
