Pro-Game-Guides?

This is part of the reason why I wanted to ask here, first... I mean, granted, the person(s) in question are uploading footage made by other people and tacking on possible keylogging material or guides but at the end of the day, if I went to YouTube and asked the same thing, who's to say they won't particularly care because I don't 'officially' own the material on show...

Sure, I made one of the many movies this person is using, but every movie (regardless of author) is gameplay of WoW of which none of us own, if you get my drift.

I suppose it'd be no harm in asking but still - I was expecting this thread would get some kind of response seeing as it's not just one of my movies they are using, but COUNTLESS movies from many MANY authors who've submitted their work to WCM - This person (or person[s]) are taking those movies, re-uploading them under their own account, and using them to get subscribers and pimp their guides of which, as said, could possibly be keyloggers/dodgy - No credit is given to any of the original authors whatsoever and the moment I was pointed in that YouTube channel direction it rang immediate alarm bells, not just for myself, but for all the authors of whom this person is taking from.
