Two YouTubers with 2 million subscribers face a $6,000 bill over a copyright complaint and risk losing their channel if they don't pay up

Two YouTubers have been issued with a $6,000 invoice for alleged copyright infringement and could lose their channel if they don't pay up.

Google's "three strikes" rule for YouTube videos means that three or more instances of copyright infringement by a channel results in that channel being "subject to termination." In this case, one of the pair's reaction videos saw them watch four clips recently bought by LA-based media firm Jukin Media, which has promptly issued them with an invoice for four cases of infringing on its copyright. Jukin Media scouts for online videos going viral and licenses them.

Susan Hall, a partner and specialist in intellectual property law at UK national law firm Clarke Willmott, said the issue hinged upon how much "critical commentary" reaction videos provide.
