The tweets included clips from a 2014 episode of his now-defunct podcast, “DVDASA,” and were labeled with a “report from the copyright holder” notice on Twitter.
April 17, 2023, 11:15 PM UTCPosts calling out “Beef” star David Choe and sharing the 2014 podcast clip in which he detailed self-proclaimed “rapey behavior” have been taken down from Twitter since criticism renewed this month.
“We would like to have these videos removed immediately,” said the request, which specifically cited tweets from Meriweather and fellow Twitter user Aura Bogado. The Twitter email, which also listed the David Young Choe Foundation as Choe’s company, informed Meriweather that his tweet had been taken down because of a “DMCA takedown notice,” a reference to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which protects copyright holders from online theft. However, several Twitter users said the tweets’ removal was an attempt by Choe to scrub the internet of his past.
Meriweather said he was disappointed in the handling of the controversy, adding that the tweets’ removal is an example of silencing those condemning problematic behavior. “Waiting to hear why @aliwong and @steveyeun made a decision to give Choe this platform,” Bogado wrote. “Silence really speaks volumes.”
