YouTubers up in arms against ANI: Who’s right in the copyright saga?

YouTuber Mohak Mangal released a video titled “Dear ANI” on May 26, accusing news agency ANI of extortion. He claimed that ANI demanded Rs 50 lakh in penalties from him to remove copyright strikes from his channel. The strikes stemmed from clips, eleven and nine seconds long, used in Mangal’s videos on the Kolkata rape case and Operation Sindoor, respectively. ANI cited copyright infringement.
