“PewDiePie is at the centre of a controversy, once again.
YouTube’s highest paid and most prominent personality, whose real name is Felix Kjellberg, used a racial slur during a livestream video playing Battle Royale shooter PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.

Comments
PewDiePie already has been demonitized a long time ago, so the question at the beginning of the article is irrelevant. They want his “fair use” videos taken down, and are trying to use DMCA claims against them to get YouTube to take them down, which could have ramifications for all video game streamers.
