Ethan Klein is a prominent content creator who has been through the legal wringer several times over the course of his career on YouTube. In 2017, he and wife Hila Klein underwent a highly-publicized battle over copyright infringement, in which they ultimately came out on top. Years later, the couple faced a lawsuit from Triller after showing footage from Jake Paul\u2019s boxing match against Ben Askren on a podcast episode \u2014 a battle they also ended up winning. Now, yet another major victory has happened for Ethan and the H3H3 crew after an MCN he used purportedly stole over half a million dollars from him over the course of several years. On April 8, Klein uploaded a video claiming that BBTV, a management company he\u2019d signed with, had purportedly stolen $620,000 from him\u2026 and he was worried he wouldn\u2019t get paid back. \u201cMy fear is that they don\u2019t have the money and that these guys are on the verge of declaring bankruptcy,\u201d he expressed in the video. \u201cI\u2019ve been reading over the contract and my remedies are not that much. I could unlink immediately without giving a 30-day notice if I was afraid that they were going to go bankrupt.\u201d He even claimed that, as punishment for terminating his contract with the agency, he\u2019d likely have to pay back his $10,000 signing bonus \u2014 something he was happy to do if it came down to it. Ethan Klein announces major win in BBTV money scandal Luckily, it doesn\u2019t look like this is the case.
