YouTuber Named in Take-Two GTA 6 Leaker Subpoena Insists He Did Nothing Wrong
The YouTuber named in Take-Two's GTA 6 leaker subpoena has denied any wrongdoing.
Matthew Judge, a popular Australian YouTuber with millions of subscribers, was named in Take-Two Interactive's subpoena related to the leak of GTA 6 gameplay videos. The company, parent to Rockstar Games, requested information from Microsoft and Discord as they investigate the source of the leaks. Judge, who has nearly 900,000 Twitch followers, denied any wrongdoing in a tweet and later during a three-hour live stream on YouTube and Twitch.
He insisted he knew nothing about the leaks and that they were not coming from his Discord servers. Judge appeared confused and joked about the situation, suggesting he might have caused the name "CyberLeek can't drive" to be associated with his videos. He also mentioned that Rockstar had not contacted him personally, implying that they likely knew nothing of his connection to the leaks.
The subpoena is part of a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) process, aimed at obtaining information to identify the alleged infringer or infringers responsible for the copyright infringement.
