Project Description
This video essay describes how creators Ethan and Hila Klein's win in their court case against Matt Hoss paved the way for the commentary/reaction video genre on YouTube. By fighting for their right to react to videos in a transformative/satiric fashion, they laid the groundwork for other creators to follow suit with a precedent of protection in place.
