Bungie, Destiny and YouTube's New Copyright System

I (along with many other people I'm sure) was planning on recording and/or streaming footage of Destiny, and uploading it to YouTube. Over the last few days however, I noticed a lot of discussion on Twitter of these new YouTube policies affecting content creators videos. Initially, I assumed the negativity had something to do with the new comment system YouTube implemented. However today, after watching several of my favorite 'Tubers rant/discussion video's - I feel incredibly disheartened to even attempt starting up a channel with Destiny footage. [url=http://youtu.be/JQfHdasuWtI]AngryJoe's rant[/url] (Explicit) really hit home for me: someone who is most definitely [b]not[/b] a content creator, but looking into becoming one. AJ mentions in his rant how he is lucky that he already has a viewer-base, and feels bad for anyone who is starting, or looking to start out. Some studios are already fighting this new system (AJ mentions Maker Studios and Polaris) as these companies are aware that this new system, in [u]no[/u] way, benefits them. Where does Bungie stand on this? Will you fight the copyright claims YouTube applies to videos of your game, or interviews like the one AJ had with DeeJ and Urk - which only contains footage meant for publicity in the first place? Where does the Bungie community stand on this? Personally I'm finding this hard to believe YouTube would want to impede it's user-base. I've seen so many video's on YouTube where content creators have 'made it' and can actually live off their income from YouTube. What happens to those people?
