I want to start a YT channel with clips I've accumulated over TikTok, twitch, YouTube, etc. Most these clips are not on YT and can't be found so figured it's a good way to get more content out there. Wondering the best way to do it/software to combine all clips. Also is there a way to monetize it? If I'm going to put time into, wondering if there's a way to make $ lol.
If they're not on YouTube already, there's probably a reason for that. Don't share them, especially if your plan is to monetise off of someone else's content. That's not fair to the other creators.
Realistically, if it's uploaded without the permission of the original creator, it's stealing. If you do start uploading, that's up to you. Just don't try to monetise.

Content Id on YouTube May demonize you by default im not sure it would depend on if the clips are over 15 secs and a few other things
Yeah I'm gonna go ahead and say don't do this. There's a ton of clips from people who made innocent videos in like 2010~ that are still floating around cuz someone in the wam community clipped them and now some girl who didn't know she was making content people jo to is on a porn site. It's kinda fucked tbh.
I don't think you should monitize someone else's work. Saving the clips on YT with no possible way to monitize it I am in favor of. As long as they are preview style clips and you credit the original producer.
Aside from the difficulty of meeting the conditions for monetization, all wam videos get automatically marked by YouTube as 18+ only, making them ineligible for AdSense money... and if they somehow slip the net, they are very vulnerable to the report button and will be demonetized immediately... and if you get three of those in a three month period your whole channel will be deleted.
It doesn't matter if it's wam with someone fully dressed head to toe in multiple layers, YouTube still know damn well what it's intended for and it gets classed as sexual/sexual behaviour. I was in the middle of writing a description once and got an email telling me YouTube had marked that clip as 18+ ... I was going to mark it 18 myself anyway as I always do but they beat me to it. In the upload process the video is private so no one reported it, it's that their systems recognise wam and any and all wam related keywords.
If you want to make money on YouTube you need to make your own original and engaging content and be super careful to make sure it's all advertiser friendly and could never give you a channel strike. Impossible to do with wam, and dodgy with other peoples work too as they can DMCA you and you get a strike that way.
loooool said: correct me if I'm wrong, but It's not stealing to take clips/tik toks and post compilations. You see it all over YouTube with various different compilations related to just about anything.
It absolutely is stealing. Somebody's work, however trivial, is protected by copyright by default - in most countries, at least. It doesn't need registering, and making it available on a platform like TikTok does not mean that they are waiving their rights.
The fact such compilation clips exist doesn't mean it's not covered by copyright laws, but simply means that things aren't enforced as much as they should be.
If I see my work (not my UMD material) elsewhere, then I take immediate action, occasionally going legal where necessary. It's not worth the hassle to create the compilations as somebody absolutely will complain.
Copyright is weirdly policed on youtube and other places, but even if you could monetise it, unless its your own original material I don't think you should.
I also know we live in a "once its on the internet its there forever" world, but ideally whoever original created the content should have the control over it, including where its uploaded and if and when it disappears

That is a **very** important point lots of people forget when favourite clips or scenes disappear. WAM clips and vids aren't Hollywood movies. There's no reason that everything has to be forever, and lots of very good reasons why, if someone choses to take their work down, it should stay down.
Many WAM models do it as a way to make money during their student years. While some will be happy to leave things up, others may end up with careers, or families, in which it would be a bad idea for their old material to still be public. It's not as if there are any shortage of active models creating new scenes. Let the old ones go, if they've been taken down there's probably a good reason. Support current creators by buying current scenes instead.

As been stated; If it isn't yours, you shouldn't be making money off the content of someone else. Also, legally, you are NOT the record holder of anyone shown in those videos so at any point and time, not just the creator but the people depicted can issue a takedown notice if you are using their likeness without their consent. You can put up your own content all you want however.
Lastly, as Custard pointed out, You are going to run into a lot of flak trying to monetize anything WAM on YT. It basically can't be done unless you are being duplicitous about your channels intent. I'm on there and I'd like to think our content we have on there is tame compared to others but we still got hit with a warning, which I appealed and won however EVERYTHING needs to be 18+ from here on out.
I don't know if he has a YouTube account but there's a photographer in the UK who repeatedly steals messy photos and videos from models and producers and puts them on anonymous Twitter and Instagram accounts without crediting, and mixes it up with small quantities of his own content.
