“I got lucky,” Piker said. “I don’t think this changes much. DMCA, it’s case by case, copyright holders can do anything. If people go buck-wild, things will change.”
“Twitch streamers have been more careful now,” the Twitch star continued. “There’s things that are going to be let go, I think, old shows the copyright holders aren’t really worried about anymore, that could be okay.”

“It’s not fair use or anything like that, it’s literally which copyright holders actually care enough, and pay enough attention, to do something about people watching on-stream. I can’t speak for anime, but I wouldn’t touch it”,he admitted
“It is literally a case-by-case thing, so it’s so hard to say what’s going to get a strike and what’s going to be okay. That’s why I accepted the strike when I got one”, he said.
“I’m definitely going to be more careful in the future. I’ll probably watch Master Chef again eventually, yeah. But we should be more careful, we should all be more careful. This (his recent DMCA strike) wasn’t a legitimate claim, but it could easily have been — I got lucky, but I might only get lucky this one time.”
“I am scared,” he added. “I’ll admit it. There’s no telling who will hand out strikes, and who won’t. That said, if I do get another (strike), I’ll definitely push back.”
