• Disney retracts copyright claim on a YouTuber's "Steamboat Willie" video, allowing it to be monetizable and shareable worldwide.

• The claim had previously demonetized the video and restricted its visibility and embedding options.

• This move by Disney may signal its recognition of "Steamboat Willie" being in the public domain.

Now all disney needs to do is backdown from ruining every single major movie release and franchise and stop firing all of their most experienced animators and maybe we'll get decent entertainment from this god awful company again!
