Hollywood
Residual Theft

Streaming services are bypassing our contracts. The artist gets zero while the clips get millions.

The Loophole
Costing Us Everything

We are WGA and SAG-AFTRA members calling for immediate enforcement. Studios are exploiting "promotional" clauses to distribute entire scenes on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok without paying a cent in residuals.

  • Clips monetize via ads, but that revenue bypasses the talent.
  • Viral content drives subscriptions, yet is categorized as "Marketing $0".
ESTIMATED LOST REVENUE
