There's one particular video on my YouTube channel where every so often another company gets the idea to embed that without sound, attribution, or ads as if it's their own video. When I notice that happening I disable embedding and break that element of their site. If random coffee company wants to license my video for commercial use they can have that conversation with me, but you don't just hotlink someone else's work like that and pretend it's yours.

The funny thing about this one is that it's not even a good video. It's just something that I threw together when testing out a then new camera, but I guess it shows up pretty highly on certain searches because those sorts of shenanigans have made it the 7th most watched thing on my channel and the only thing in my top 10 without any real educational component.
