I was watching a 45 second video, but ran into some trouble with the above. I
will post the entire subtitles for context purposes.

> テレビ番組を勝手にアップロードするのは違法だからな  
>  10年以下の懲役か1000万円以下の罰金か、その両方だが

>  未成年だろうが成人だろうが、違法なものは違法なんだぞ  
>  でも10年の懲役って重くないですか？

question
grammar meaning phrases
What does 今一概に言える equate to? "Now, unconditionally said thing?"
一概に on its own is not "unconditionally" but "collectively" or "generically".
一概に言う/一概に述べる means "to say (something) collectively" or "to describe a
generalized rule/answer/characteristic".

  * **一概に言う** : to describe (something) collectively
  * **一概に言える** : to be able to describe (something) collectively
  * **一概に言えること** : (relative clause) something that one can describe collectively

Therefore 一概に言えることじゃない means "It's not something I can describe collectively"
or "It's hard to give a generalized rule/answer". 今 before it is just "for
now".
