Epic Games is suing two YouTubers for endorsing and allegedly selling cheat for Fortnite in their videos.
A legal complaint filed with the North Carolina Federal Court by Epic has accused Brandon Lucas, also known as "Golden Modz", of "copyright infringement, breach of contract, and tortious interference" due to "injecting unauthorized cheat software ('cheats' or 'hacks') into the copyright protected code of [Fortnite]."
Lucas, who has more than 1.7 million subscribers on his YouTube channel, is the main defendant named in the case, but Epic has named Colton Conter, also known as "Excentric", as a second defendant.
