The Internet Historian example is interesting. In addition to the plagiarism everyone else's presentation is really low effort. Everything they do is to the end of churning out videos as fast a possible. But Man in Cave actually has a lot of effort put in on the visual side.

drat, that section predicting how language learning algorithms are going to be used to obfuscate this kind of thing and make it harder to detect was grim.

I imagine a lot of his other videos are similar -- just kinda regurgitating a lot of unsourced stuff as a foundation to add jokes and animation to, which is also not good -- but actually copying/rearranging prose and narrative devices really steps into indefensible territory.
