‘Lead’ YouTube Content ID Scammer Sentenced to 46 Months in Prison

After masquerading as legitimate music rightsholders, two men fraudulently extracted over $23 million in revenue from YouTube's Content ID system. The men were indicted in 2021 and subsequently entered guilty pleas. An Arizona court has now sentenced Webster Batista Fernandez, who reportedly initiated the scheme, to 46 months in prison.
