Correct answer: Consider the criteria for fair use (or fair dealing), including whether the video is a parody or critique with social value..
Why this is the answer
Fair use and fair dealing are copyright exceptions that require a case-by-case review. Relevant factors can include purpose, character, amount used, and effect on the market for the copyrighted work. Uses such as parody, critique, commentary, teaching, or news reporting may be considered, depending on the legal context. YouTube’s automated systems cannot determine whether a specific use qualifies for an exception.
