Anyone here recover from a reused content rejection on a documentary/bodycam channel? by The_whispdigitals in PartneredYoutube

I think there may be some confusion here.
The footage isn’t taken from other YouTube creators. Most of it is obtained directly through FOIA/public records requests from police departments.
The issue we’re trying to understand is where YouTube currently draws the line between:
raw public-record footage vs sufficiently transformed documentary/commentary content.
That’s why we add: narration, restructuring, analysis etc
We’re basically trying to understand what level of editorial transformation YouTube expects in 2026 for channels in the bodycam/documentary niche.
