What's REALLY Going On with Mohak Mangal Vs ANI | ANI Supporter Are NPC

Опис:

A major controversy has shaken the Indian YouTube scene as ANI, one of the largest news agencies in South Asia, faces scrutiny for allegedly issuing multiple copyright strikes to prominent creators and demanding a hefty sum of Rs. 50 lakh for strike removal. The firestorm began when Mohak Mangal, a respected and research‑driven YouTuber, exposed ANI’s practice of striking creators for even a few seconds of footage and demanding large payments. Ironically, Mangal himself became the main target, with ANI already issuing two strikes on his channel and threatening six more, offering to remove them for Rs. 50 lakh or risk losing everything. He is not only exposing the problem but living it, bringing the issue into the spotlight and fighting on the frontlines. The video delves into why ANI issues multiple strikes, how Mangal uncovered the issue and became its biggest target, why some still defend ANI’s approach, and how this could silence creators across the platform. While copyright is important, fairness, transparency, and prior notice are equally crucial; if ANI wanted to license its clips, it should have made that public. Instead, creators were struck without warning and demanded crores. This controversy extends beyond a single agency or creator, raising questions about whether public news content can be controlled through threats and secret pricing. Supporters of ANI claim it does ground‑level work and that creators simply react and earn, but demanding Rs. 50 lakh for a single clip seems unjustifiable. The debate touches on fair use, which protects creators who analyze, comment, educate, and speak freely, and weaponizing copyright threatens that freedom. Those defending ANI are urged to consider what it would be like if their channel were targeted, warned only seven days before termination, and forced to pay crores without notice. Ultimately, this is not just about copyright but about control, silencing, and unchecked power, and the community stands with Mangal, creators, and a fair digital ecosystem.
