It seems like yes, this is what they are doing...I wonder if all teams whose footage has been taken from them know this and/or are okay with it...
EDIT: I see some of the videos that 1676 recorded are now on the WatchFIRSTnow site, but I know that we were never asked about them.
Taking others' work without giving credit or asking permission and declaring it as your own is neither gracious, professional, or legal.
I find it funny how WatchFIRSTNow is sending out a 'plea' to the FIRST community and asking them to 'PLEASE' record and post footage online, while they seem to then take the videos and claim them as their own on their account...
