Samsung fails to kill video of GTAV Galaxy Note 7 bomb

Samsung this week tried, and failed, to take down a YouTube video depicting a Grand Theft Auto V mod that makes fun of its notoriously problematic Galaxy Note 7 smartphone.

The mod replaces the game's sticky bomb weapon with a model resembling the Note 7; the video in question depicts user "sdaddy345" blowing up a range of vehicles with the modded weapon.

Earlier in the week, the video was taken down via a copyright demand attributed to Samsung, generating widespread derision towards the company.

Sdaddy345 filed a counter-claim, however, which appears to have worked, since the video is now back online on their YouTube channel Modded Games.
