Sent the filmmaker a not-so-nice email a little bit ago. Check out their response...
"Dear Zack,
I was sent this script from a friend. He mentioned that it was on a website where you can use un-produced scripts for free.
I've asked him if he was a 100% sure no credits have to be given and we can use it and he said yes. So I went with what he said since I couldn't find any name on it as he edited the script beforehand.
Please accept my sincere apologies, I will give you credit for the script for sure and I'll talk to him to see where he got it from.

Pretty clear info, and in red.
It doesn't say, take what you want, and heck, while you're at it, put your name on it too.
I'll shut up now. This stuff and then feeble dishonest excuses rile me up.

This is getting weird.
Well, free use doesn't mean that you don't even do the courtesy of asking for permission.
I tried to report the video and get it taken down, but youtube denied me and claimed that they need more information before they can take action. I already provided them with the screenplay. Really not sure what else I can do?
Zack, it might seem like an obvious question, but did you link to the site here, the feedback given, the permissions required, and the previous film with your name attached?

Tell them it contains Covid conspiracy. They'll take it down.

- with your name attached - actually, your name as top billing on that one.
I didn't post a link to the discussion board(the links are always broken ), but I did send them a link to the other version of the short. Not sure what else I can do.
I've been trying to get the filmmaker to do the right thing and simply take the video down. Still waiting on a response...
