So first up, apparently "AIDS denial" is a thing now. Not content with creationists, homeopaths, climate deniers and astrologers, now we have to deal with morons who think AIDS was invented by pharmaceutical companies or something.
Anyway, they made some ridiculous "documentary" called House of Numbers which is predictably riddled with the usual nonsense these kind of people engage in (cherry picking, selective editing, etc).
After youtuber Myles Power made a series of videos debunking their bullshit, they hit him with a DMCA takedown despite the fact that his rebuttals clearly fall within the fair use portion of the DMCA.

And in other news, one in four Americans are unaware that the Earth orbits the sun.

I weep for humanity.
