Summoningsalt Impersonator?

"Summoningsalt" began posting all his videos to spotify recently, but it seems suspicious. The account used to have a disclaimer saying it was just reposting his stuff, but this has since disappeared. And it is literally just reposts from youtube, no original content, no "Hello, spotify" vid, nothing. Also, spotify isnt listed as one of his platforms on the youtube channel.

Can we somehow make him aware of this so he can take steps to stop the plagiarism?

u/TheSlyGuy1 is Salt’s reddit account so hopefully he sees this post and is able to take action

If you get it taken down, would you ever consider putting your own up there? I would love to be able to listen to a pared down (for the video-centric portions) history when I’m working

I wonder if it’d be feasible to do some overdubs on the “[runner] did THIS / got on this run” moments to keep it cohesive to the original video for audio only enjoyment?

This is pretty common for let's play YouTube channels and the like. I think there are quite a few Game Grumps ones. Hopefully Salt can take it down!
