They got their video taken down over a copyright strike, link to post on YT
Here’s a mirror on internet archive.
iirc theyre active on reddit talking about the situation. basically bloomberg lawyers probably striked it for a segment they included in the video, but GN thinks theyre fine because itll be covered by fair use.
Thanks for the heads-up, added the internet archive torrent to seed up to 25MB/s
Also added to my seedbox
Downloading the torrent so i can seed it on 2.5Gb fiber
They should put it up on peertube and get some visibility for the platform
Is there a tldw somewhere before I watch 3.5 hours?
US banned a certain class of high performance graphic cards to China.
It is actually possible to purchase those cards in China. And it is not very hard to do so.
The prices of said cards in China are quite similar to the ones in the US.
A lot of big players in the market are not happy with the truth presented in this piece by Gamers Nexus.
Louis Rossmann has commented on the situation. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RJvrTC6oTI
Yeah that’s a lot of time for something I have no idea about.
I found it fascinating beyond just the geopolitics of video cards (although the existence of that right there is wild).
It’s a really neat look inside China with “real people” (not trade shows, uptight salesmen, or politicians). I don’t speak Chinese but it also seemed like Steve Burke had spent a lot of effort learning. He seems very talented and smart while staying humble. That’s rare.
Despite it being a 3 hour video about smuggling, the most discomforting thing for me was the left-handed driving in HK and I find that hilarious.
I started ripping it in Youtube the night it was released! knew this BS would happen.
Still up on Rumble: rumble.com/v6xro9o--the-nvidia-ai-gpu-black-marke…
Just downloaded it. Thanks my guy.
Currently pulling via yt-dlp as well.
I found the intro hook intriguing, but the reporting starts with a lot of media clips and other run-ups, which eventually made me leave.
It’s great they put in so much effort into genuine, on-site reporting, but the already long video report feels even more bloated/filled this way.
I have to wonder if the DMCA was due to the news clips. While they may be fair use for contextualized reporting, I didn’t find them particularly valuable, and DMCA issues could have been avoided without them or without using so many of them.

They have said that Bloomburg footage of trump talking about GPUs was the claim. They probably did play a little too fast and loose with copyrighted footage.
Exactly the same - I was very interested in the premise but struggled to make it past this section, too, for the same reasons you’ve mentioned. Would certainly agree that these clips should’ve been used more sparingly, as it’s a bit of a slog otherwise.
After all the shit with LTT do they think GN is gonna go quietly?
I’m a bout an hour in on this. Utterly wild. Fantastic journalism.
Damn I didn’t get to watch it. Thank Talos for the IA. I’ll add to the torrent when I get home in the morning.
I’d buy this on a bluray.
I had to close the GN vid after he said Russia is allegedly using AI to surveil their citizens.
Like yeah Steve. Conveniently never mention the genocide being committed using AI in the most dystopian way possible. Or anything regarding Israel ever, such as NVIDIA building a multi billion dollar tech campus in Israel right now.
Are you genuinely going to nitpick a video focusing on the black market for gpus… about not calling out your specific concern? My dude, I’d advise you to find perspective that isn’t up your own ass.
Yes. It was a hillarious double standard showcasing how biased the reporter is and unwilling to speak the truth. There is nothing to learn from such bad journalism.
It’s dark up there. Lol
I’m as against Israel’s war crimes as the next guy, but I don’t see why some people try to shoehorn it into completely irrelevant topics.
The video is about GPUs being smuggled into China, as well as the futility of this GPU export ban.
It is not about middle eastern geopolitics. That’s why middle eastern geopolitics wasn’t mentioned.
So why did it mention Russia allegedly using AI to spy on its citizens?
From what I understand, Bloomberg is one who placed copyright strike on video. Google would need to take a supremacist view towards the content, and supremacist deference to Bloomberg, to understand validity of complaint. What Bloomberg content was featured in documentary, and does it have any basis for unfair use claim?
Prohibition does not work. Documentary showed some 5090 prices in Hong Kong street boutique to be same price as online US availability. It would take monumental geopolitical leverage (with bribery, loss of reserve geopolitical capital) to isolate China which is a 5x+ larger tech market than US. Geopolitical leverage the US is rapidly losing by attacking entire world simultaneously. Singapore is not going to prevent Singapore companies from profiting, hopefully paying taxes, including from employees, to Singapore, would require tremendous US government donations/complete corrupt bribery for Singapore to take “Philippines suicide pact” (Marcos tradition) approach to war on China.
The documentary does show US policy impotence. New geopolitical US posture though is “China must be enslaved to CUDA technology so as to prevent Huawei/SMIC dominance” while China is saying “NVIDIA is a US military controlled agent intent on diminishing China, whose equipment cannot be trusted, and not purchased”
Impotence and imminent collapse of US strategy/policy is what needs to be protected from American consciousness. It is telling that Bloomberg and Google see themselves as such propaganda enforcers. This is more of a deep state CIA favour rather than Trump Administration favour, but neither are acts of nobility.
Why the 1.1gb video hosted in the internet archive has a “.ai” in its name?
It has .ia in the file name because it was processed with the Internet Archive’s MP4 tool which optimises the file for streaming by moving some content in the file around. Very common for Internet Archive files and nothing to do with AI.
Why does it matter?
Curiosity matters.

I’m sure this takedown will in no way bring attention to this video.
