By late 2015, there were thousands of reaction channels on YouTube. Soon the original creators on the site began to notice the trend. The response was immediate. There was universal condemnation. Some of the top YouTube stars, including Pewdiepie, Doctor Ian Mantis Toboggan, I Hate Everything, GradeAUnderA, LeafyIsHere, DramaAlert and JacksFilms, spoke out, criticising Jinx and his ilk. They felt that they were not adding any creative value to the video when they were reacting to them. Facing such widespread criticism, Jinx tried to defend himself in a video titled ‘Message to YouTubers’, but it ended up only aggravating the situation. Eventually, he announced that he was quitting doing reaction videos for good.After he released the music videos of three tracks from his EP ‘The Rap of All Trades’, Jinx was accused of illegal sampling after using copyrighted material of another person in his music without giving the original creator due credit. All the songs were taken down either by DMCA or Jinx himself. Universal, which represented some of the original artists, launched a formal DMCA complaint against him and the tracks were subsequently removed from SoundCloud as well.
