How i accidently created a hoax

antonye says...

Explanation video is fake, made by the FBI to throw you off the scent...

But seriously, it shows how easily some people will see what they want to believe. In this instance the creator came forward and 'fessed up, but in how many other cases has this not happened and the footage remains "credible"?

While I agree, this may have been the Smart Move™ on Sam Smith's part to avoid a lengthy court battle over royalties and compensation and instead to negotiate a percentage through the writing credit - on the balance of probabilities in a court room a jury may well have found in Tom Petty's favour even if it was chance/coincidence.
But whatever. Sam Smith has a career ahead of him and Tom Petty has plenty of money.

Wow, that is such bullshit.

Not a fan of Sam Smith, but there's no way Petty should get a songwriting credit for that.
