Should I make a video about the claim, lack of help from YouTube, IANAL advise from here and the happy ending?

Drama gets clicks, but given that it's all settled, I probably wouldn't bother.

Usually it's just an eager in-house legal people who wants to show off they are actually doing something useful. When you point out to them they are wrong, they always back down. They probably got the finger wagged at them from someone higher up.

I was thinking along the same lines.

This is the sort of thing I have seen before in other areas, especially if there's a new kid on the block.

I've had half a dozen such incidents, maybe more over the years, both for videos I have done, and for content on this forum.
They always back down when told their request has no legal merit, and if they pursue it, the public exposure consequences will be unpleasant for them to say the least.

It wasn't just some new lawyer with a fresh idea. 8 years in Ericsson (7 as senior legal) and describes one self by "Specialties: Intellectual Property Law, Swedish Authorized IP Attorney, European Trademark & Design Attorney, Domain Name Management, Copyright and Design Protection".

But I kept as much documentation of the events as possible. Always good for future use should it come in handy :)

In the days before they replied, I also had some new ideas for a video series of my capacitor bank vs. Ericsson products  :-BROKE

Once again, thank you all for the support and help sorting out where I stood on IPR/Copyright etc.
