On July 4, 2016, Klein uploaded a video entitled " Deception, Lies and CS:GO." Klein called out gaming YouTubers ProSyndicate and TmarTn for being involved in an illegal gambling scheme on CS:GO, with many of the gamblers being underage.

The Kleins revealed they won the lawsuit the following year, as confirmed by the BBC. In the video, Ethan and Hila explained that they would be putting the funds raised into a "Fair Use Protection Account" (FUPA), to help finance small creators who needed legal defense for a fair-use lawsuit. Responding to the fund and people's "overwhelming support," Ethan and Hila uploaded a video entitled " A New Chapter for Fair Use on YouTube." Video-game designer Garry Newman also donated to the fund. Ultimately, $170,765 was raised for their "defense fund" and various YouTubers including Daniel "Keemstar" Keem and LeafyisHere donated. In response to this, YouTube star Phillip De Franco created a donation fund on GoFundMe to help the Kleins with their legal costs. Two weeks after their drama with LeafyisHere, H3H3Productions posted a video entitled "We're Being Sued," in which Klein said that they were being sued by fellow YouTuber Matt Hosseinzadeh based on the allegation that their reaction video involving him violated US copyright law, as they used clips of his content. When h3h3 Productions said they were getting sued by Matt Hosseinzadeh, Phillip DeFranco made a GoFundMe to support them. Both channels are extremely popular, with million subscribers each, but the Kleins' content - which frequently involves commentating on other YouTubers - has led to a number of clashes and controversies over the years. It was during this trip to Israel that he met his now-wife Hila Hacmon, who was then serving as a soldier in the Israel Defence Forces as part of a two-year mandatory military service.Īfter moving to California, the couple started a YouTube channel called H3H3Productions (an ode to Ethan and Hila's initials) in April 2011, followed by a second channel called H3 Podcast. In a 2017 YouTube video, Klein said that he experienced generalized anxiety disorder throughout college, which led to him taking a trip to Israel in 2007 as part of the Birthright program, which offers to fund 10-day trips to Israel for people of Jewish heritage.
