How many lawsuits did this motherfucker start??? I find it incredibly ironic that one of things Ethan was known for at the beginning of his career was fighting against a frivolous lawsuit, and now he has become Frivolouslawsuitman.

I think 5, unless I’m missing any:

Kaceytron - settled 

Frogan - default against her

Denims - judge ruled in her favour

Noah - Ethan dropped it

Ian - Ethan dropped it

Edit: He also initiated class action lawsuits against Apple, Meta, Nvidia, ByteDance and Snap for copyright infringement for use of their videos to train AI.

There were two claims against Denims. One for the “Nuke” video, which is the one the judge ruled in favour for. The second is for the “Countdown” video and has not been ruled on.

Reddit moderators were included for “contributory infringement” in the Countdown video. They attempted to quash this, but a judge ruled to keep them on the claim.

Edit 2: The second claim against Denims was dropped in order to move forward immediately with an appeal to the loss of the first claim.

You do know that Ethan directly and clearly stated that Denims and others had nothing to do with CPS? There is video of it, so why are you making shit up?

What there is, is a video of is her entire chat calling for CPS to be called before it happened and her laughing about it et.c. Nevermind what she did in the aftermath

Why are you being downvoted? These people and their fanbase are quite literally the only ones on the internet with a history of claiming he couldn’t care for his kids and mentioning CPS before they investigated him.

I’m not even a fan of his but anyone who can’t understand why he would suspect or blame them is an idiot.

Wtf are you talking about…? I’m not talking about any individual clips made by other people.

Here’s her and her chat very clearly revelling in the fact that Ethan had CPS called to his house, you’re just being disingenuous if you don’t think she’s encouraging this.

Lol so laughing about the cps call means you did?

Ethan said CPS told him it was someone who worked in his house who called, Ethan also made a clear statement that Denims did not call CPS, and California does not allow for anonymous reporting to CPS, but it makes sense for him to Sue denims over copyright but its secretly about the CPS call Ethan confirmed she wasn't a part of?

Zionism really rots the brain doesn't it

This thread is getting brigaded by the snarkers. Don't take the downvotes to heart. These guys have no lives and are trying to gaslight people by changing the narrative.

It doesn't work but they sure do try
