Summary of the dispute from the BBC:
MxR and Potastic Panda are known for making videos where they react to memes and other online content. But it turns out four videos they watched have been bought up by a media company, which has slapped them with a bill for infringing its copyright.
And unless they pay, their channel could now be removed due to the nuances of RU-vid's copyright system. A channel receives a strike against it if a copyright owner formally notifies RU-vid that a copyright infringement has taken place. Receiving three strikes, according to Google, results in a RU-vid channel being "subject to termination". MxR Plays is a RU-vid channel which often involves 'reaction videos' - where people film themselves reacting to anything from memes to movie trailers. MxR and Potastic Panda, the RU-vidrs who host the channel, say they have received four copyright claims in the same bill from Jukin Media, with Google yet to be notified. Their joint channel has 840,000 subscribers - and MxR has a personal following of more than two million.

In fairness, many lawyers work on contingency. Meaning they only collect on their fees (and sometimes a cut of the settlement money) if and when the case is won. So when you turn up to a lawyer with an airtight case, or a case where the Lawyer is confident he/she can win, it will be "free".

A lot easier than actually doing commentary. If MxR just did things...better, they would never have been in this situation. Make the video you're reacting to small (failing to do so makes the copyrighted video the focus of YOUR video as well instead of your "transformative commentary") not your reaction to it and say something more than "oh wow!" as a reaction. They basically just show a video then go "OH COOL!" That isn't transformative by any definition of the word.

I agree. I feel bad for MxR but tbh they are acting like kids. Kids who, from the look of the “reaction vids” aren’t very good at this RU-vid thing in terms of providing meaningful commentary. They also commit the cardinal sin of having the copyrighted content take up the majority of the screen. And, as stated in the video, not getting a lawyer from the start. And playing like you’re some poor “mom and pop” RU-vid channel when you have tens of thousands of Patreon subscribers? Jukin is about to take all their money if they don’t check themselves.

People have power, and the government and other similar institutions simply try to redirect or defuse that power.

I'm honestly curious if someone could make a reaction video that would be more easily protected by fair use since most are like this... Would someone that reacts by asking questions about what they saw in the videos and maybe seeking to use small clips like that to teach random facts be transforming the videos they're reacting to enough to be protected? It is honestly pretty interesting. Especially because a few content creators I watch have brought up how it directly hurts views and revenue of original videos when a big or bigger content creator makes a reaction video, or streams their reaction somewhere like twitch, like debate streamers commonly do. For a lot of people it's more worth their time to watch a stream like that - that watches an entire video on-stream, with the added content of the streamer's perspective - than to just watch the video itself. People also definitely won't then go to watch the video they already basically saw in its entirety. Again, definitely interesting and a bit nuts 😂

So, this is the most recent of the RU-vid copyright/copystrike Legal Eagle videos I could find - and maybe this is a useless question - but I was wondering if @LegalEagle would do a video on the copystriking of classical musicians like TwoSet Violin and various orchestras who are playing music in the public domain, but still receiving copystrikes. This 2-year-late question comes from a recent video posted by TwoSet on Dec. 6, 2022 ("This has gone too far..."). Also, since the people involved are based out of Australia (TwoSet) and Singapore (the orchestra) and the copystricken concert was filmed in Singapore but placed on a US business's site (RU-vid), is this still under US Jurisdiction or it be under a different country's JU? I didn't take international law in law school; but I'm thinking as long as the copytstrikers are US-based and the fact that it's on RU-vid's platform, that US law would be an option if not the only one.

Jukin's extortion of RU-vidrs is what would make me not watch any Jukin-licensed video. Here's the thing, though: they don't label any of the clips they own as owned by them. They go hunting for clips to buy that have already been released publicly, then go hunting for people who have used them (even possibly before Jukin bought the rights) and extort money from the RU-vidrs by threatening to eliminate their means of livelihood by exploiting the RU-vid copyright claim system. That's clearly a bad faith exploitation of copyright law in service of extortion. Similarly, you have a right to defend your property from trespass. Generally, you can build a fence and post a "No Trespass" sign. You cannot bury landmines on your property and let people wander onto your non-fenced property so they get blown up. By hiding their ownership and sending out demand letters, Jukin is in the landmine end of that spectrum of property defense.

So are they legally allowed to do that then? Force a RU-vidr to pay a fine for using a video clip that went viral before they had the rights to it?? That’s insane.. and should totally be considered extortion. So, if for instance the RU-vidr got permission beforehand from the original person to use the video, (or if they used it in a fair use manner as well) and then that person went ahead and sold the rights to Jukin, would they still have a claim on it towards videos that were posted before they bought the rights to it? What a mess.. They sound like the pariahs of the media industry.

Well then simply apply fair use. Mrx is bluntly stealing the clips. While I watch minute movies, I often stop the video in first couple of minutes, then search where to watch that movie, watch it, then continue watching his video. With mxr. Do you go to the original clips to watch them? Or are they re-uploading those clips at full length.

@@DageLV as was put in the video, MxR fall under the poorest possible definitions of Fair Use usually in these types of videos, often using the "heart" of the clip if not the full clip. That said, the reading about Jukin not appropriately identifying the clips they own the rights for as their own immediately after acquisition and then hunting around for people who have used them is also a blatant case of Copyright Abuse. Neither party in this case was even remotely clean in the eyes of any court of law.

They are not peculiar in this activity. OpSec, Mark Monitor, Speak Easy, Friends, etc all do it. They have software they embed into their clips or videos they release onto the internet and wait for the 'share report' bots to report back with details of where the video, music, sports event or movie has been shared. They then hit that sharer with vast claims of money.

@@rayhatesu I wasn't notified of your reply. Yes junkin might very well be arseholes. But that doesn't matter. Legality does. And most, if not all reaction channels fail to comply with fair use. They're literally not even doing the bare minimum of doing review of the clip or anything. Shadiversity makes like an hour long video on a 2 minute movie fight scene, that's fair use. Xmr makes 10 second recording of 9.5 second video. If mrx wants to cry they better make sure they are legally right. About them buying popular clips and then complaining.

Be that as it may, that doesn’t mean the work is being transformed at all. Sure you’re not watching for the clips, but even so the clips need to be used in a transformative way or not used at all. The intent of the consumer has no affect on the legality of the creator’s actions (or lack thereof).

I won’t dispute the interpretations of the law given here, only that I think those interpretations are built on a flawed understanding of the artist’s work. If I do an impressionist painting of a building and sell the painting, should I have to pay the architect? Under the law, maybe; but really, my composition and skill in rendering the image wholly transforms the subject even if it’s still recognizably the building designed by the architect. Further, an artist literally took people’s instagram posts and blew them up and created a show where they sold for thousands and that artist wasn’t required to pay the ‘gramers for their work. It’s pretty clear the claimants are being vultures, I consider their business model morally bankrupt and bad for thought and art in general. Again, won’t argue about the legality, the law isn’t perfect, but screw these guys hard and I hope they not only lose but also maybe have an “act of god” annihilate their business and personal holdings. But that’s one nobody’s-on-the-internet opinion.

@@matthewconlon2388 I agree that they are, morally speaking, in the wrong. I think it's really abhorrent to claim legal ownership of short videos online, and proceed to use said videos to take money from other people. I do still take issue with your examples, however. An architect is not paid by how many people use or see their building; they are paid to simply construct it. A painting of a building would in no way, shape or form harm the "claim" that the architect has to the building. Furthermore, if you painted your own picture of the building, that is your own rendition - a parody, if you will - and you would have the rights to that specific painting. In regards to Richard Prince, he falls under the same kind of kin as Jukin; Taking work that other people have done, and using it to make money in a very slimy way.

@@Tomehawk95 I disagree. The intent of the consumer in this case is what makes the claim. The claimant is saying "they're using 'our' IP to make money without our permission" (a dubious claim under the detestable copyright law they're abusing to make it) but the consumer is not going there for their IP, they're going there to observe the dynamic of the couple doing the reaction. If you're the type of person that can go to a theater and listen to a couple behind you loudly comment on the film for its entire duration and feel the impact of the film was in no way altered by their active vocal participation, then I believe you're in a minority. I think most would feel the film was ruined by their part in that experience. If you'd leave and ask for a refund, then it's pretty easy to see why playing clips found on the internet that this couple loudly comment on are wholly transformed by their participation. I was also pretty clear when I said I'm not going to argue the legalities at play as the law is not perfect. In this case I think it is in fact criminally flawed and affording a grotesque corporate parasite the option of harassing young entrapreneurs. I disagree with the current understanding and implementation of IP law which I believe to be virulently anticapitalist (and make no mistake, I'm no great fan of capitalism as it's implemented in the US or globally today) At it's best I think it's harmful to the American ideals of business, opportunity, as well as culture and thought in general.

as an ex-content creator that has managed to get a couple of very very original viral videos under my belt, i'd like to chime in. I think copyright middlemen like Jukin are a very necessary part of the social media ecosystem. From our perspective, the real predators are the meme pagers and reactors that don't bother to give credits while freeloading off our work. We don't have money or the resources to claim what is rightfully ours, unlike what companies like Jukin does. In my whole career, I have gotten respectfully approached by copyright middlemen companies for the rights to my videos, and that was the only time I was ever offered money for my content, even though it was a few hundred dollars.

The two points you made that I think really need to be shouted from the rooftops are that a RU-vid channel (especially one that is monetized) is a business and you need to treat it like one; and, just saying, "So sue me" isn't necessarily a winning strategy, since legal defense is expensive.

The video would play on the reaction channel but the owner would get any ad revenue from it. This wouldn't solve all the problems but it would give smaller channels a way to share stuff they like with their community without taking anything away from the owners. It would then be the choice of the owner to decide if just the ad revenue was enough.

One of my biggest problems with Jukin is that they don’t watermark their content. A practice that stock companies like shutter stock and pond5 have been using since before Jukin was founded. If they really didn’t want people using their content without permission, then they would watermark their content like everyone else. That way people know not to use their content without buying a license first. With the way they have it set up now it’s extremely predatory, since anyone can stumble across the original upload and repost it somewhere else without knowing Jukin owns the clip. From there anyone can see the clip and react to or repost it somewhere else. Then all they have to do is wait for a repost or a reaction video to show up and bam you owe us money.

TheJjcczz I think that’s a poor argument because regardless of if Jukin owns the media or not, SOMEONE owns the media. Any independent creator has the same rights as Jukin, they just don’t know how to exercise their rights (just like how MXR didn’t know not to pay Jukin and get a lawyer first). Copyright on video clips exists with the creation of the clip - I don’t necessarily agree with Jukin’s tactics, but people shouldn’t be able to take advantage of creators’ naïveté for profit.
@Bigdaddy93413

shocellist There isn’t any way to know who owns it. As Jukin operates, you can’t track the clips down until it’s too late in most cases. Sure, you can argue that you should just not use those clips if you can’t locate its rights holder, and I’d agree with you. However, this doesn’t detract from the suggestion that Jukin is operating this way potentially on purpose to predate on people as a “Copyright Troll”. As long as they’re making it difficult to track them down, I think a Copyright Troll is exactly what they are. Unfortunately that doesn’t absolve MXR if he is infringing their copyright.

shocellist In Jukin’s case they’re a major company going after people for using content that they had no idea was Jukin’s and had no way of knowing it was there’s to begin with. It’s completely different to using content from a lone individual. In regards to copyright if you’re someone who actually wants to enforce their rights then you need to be willing to learn. Since the U.S. requires all websites include some form of dmca takedown it’s not too difficult to get copyrighted works removed

they are not even entitled to the 6k because MxR is not obliged to pay it.

You are not getting shit either when you ask for 6k or in failing to pay you will take away all of the income of said person. I have no idea why on earth they would do that when they can easily get sued for extortion. In the first case 1 party pays the other a fee determined by the court in the other the losing party goes to prison for a federal crime and pays a fine.

We all know, especially as creators, that everything that was filmed, photographed, programmed or created in anyway by someone, is copyrighted. So you cannot just asume that something doesn't have a copyright, virtually everything has. It's you job as a creator to find whos holding the copyright, approaching them, ask them for permission and then paying for the license or give them ccredit if they choose to have a CC License. Just taking stuff because you do not know who it belongs to doesn't free you from justice. Think of it like this: I walk into a bar and theres a purse laying on the bar chair.

Every clip that is on the Internet is copyrighted unless it is public domain. Anything that you want to use you need to obtain copyright rights to, or proof of public domain status. If you can't find the copyright owner, then don't use that clip. Simple as that. You don't need to see every piece of copyrighted material that somebody holds to make sure none of ones you want to use illegally are theirs so they don't catch you. Unless you are the copyright holder, you have to license ALL of the clips you use, regardless of who owns them.

This was a great video about this subject. I also can see both sides. I do wonder how hard it is to find content owners for these clips. Most of the time they seem to be going to certain sub-reddit and going from there. How would they know which things are Jukin's or who owns the rest of them. Regarding the $1500 per incident, although it is much higher than the license fee itself, I also agree that it's not astronomical. Jukin has to pay people to find their content, pay other people to find out how to get a hold of the offending party and issue them a notice/invoice. It's kind of telling the content creators to do their homework and find out if they need any licenses before posting videos. The first $2000 should have been a lessons learned moment and yes - they should have talked to a lawyer right away once copyright infringement became a thing. Again this was great analysis and I subscribed because of this video.

My personal two cents is that, as you said, Jukin could cooperate with MXR, but they are being sly and providing as little justification as possible - which I assume from Jukin's having received 2000 before. Them asking for another 6000 after they've waited for MXR to make more videos is peculiar. If they're the middle man they claim they are, they could've easily warned MXR to buy the rights for the clips he'll use after that initial 2000 dollars and make it clear he will face more strikes if he doesn't. Instead, they waited and gave him a strike after he made more mistakes. Their business seems to be profiting off from people's ignorance and they don't seem very interested in correcting mistakes because they'd probably make more money from lawsuits then if people actually bought the clips. So I generally agreed with the comment that Jukin's claims aren't very legitimate regardless of their evidence.

It may depend on the location (the state, etc.) as to whether you can proceed without a lawyer and when, however, not having legal advice is very likely to cause problems when navigating law and the court system, which is why we have lawyers and why people use them. This video and navigating copyright law is prime example of that. It also costs a lot to hire a lawyer because they’ve put a lot of time and effort into becoming one and clients pay for this time and expertise. They’re doing a job for you and that is why it can potentially cost a lot of money. If you can imagine the amount of hours it takes to get from the first form filled out to a jury verdict, it makes a lot of sense why it’s so costly.

@@Rovy83 From what I can tell, its not that their videos are devoid of content, its that the content of their video has the same purpose as that of the original video. The original video had the purpose of "entertainment" and the react video has the same purpose, "entertainment." If it had a different purpose from the original, such a criticism or education, they would be OK.

Factor number 3 is also a major point for clip shows. The Wilhem scream, for instance, while originally part of a copyrighted work, was considered to short to be considered protected by the copyright, and therefore not protected. The same idea protects clips shows

The skeevey thing about it was the demand for a repeat payment. They charged them for £2000, which they probably set at that amount because they thought they would pay it without too much thought. They then had them on the hook for the rest.

@@jaywalkin8205 Why should they? Like our justice avian said it is on MxR to gain permission to use copyrighted material (if it's not fair use), and by default any work is copyrighted. So unless it expressly stated that the material is free to use for commercial purposes you might be carefull which videos you reupload with you saying "that's cool" at the end of it.

@@JCGver still dosent justify the fact that mxr will comply with the jukin team but jukin will not do the same. The uploads were intended but copyright videos were not, they get all of there content off of reddit. Like mxr said they are targeting him because he caved in and paid them before hand. Jukin media retracts their statements and try's to excuse why this happened saying it was unintentional and a "troll" account is the reason for the whole thing.. sounds fishy to me

@@jaywalkin8205 monetizing reddit threads does not free you from copyright law. The people who share the video on reddit arent monetizing it so they dont chase them but if your entire channel is built around barely reacting to reddit clips youre violating copyright law. 50 bucks doesnt seem much to pay for content that is feeding their families. Now they tried to negotiate through youtube so their lawyers have to get involved and thats not cheap. Had they talked about it offline it may have gone different but in the end there is no such thing as free content unless youre making it. If your business is built around stealing viral videos you should pay the owners.

the thing that makes me sad is that they already paid 2k and now are being charged another 6k, I feel like the company shouldn't have the right to double-dip on someone like that. Because then what if their intention WAS to double dip, get income and then demand more for examples they INTENTIONALLY missed or didn't make demand on

Yeah, much as I hate copyright trolls, in this case mxr are specifically the reason they exist - because small creators can't afford to do anything about people taking and profiting from their content without cutting them in or even crediting them, so they get what they can by selling to scum like jukin.
