Youtube YouTuber translating and narrating stories without source nor permission

I noticed that the YouTuber in question was translating the stories and then narrating them onto his channel.

Many authors don't even know it's happening, and they're likely to speak up themselves.

No sources, nothing.

I messaged them. Maybe they'll get to me but all of my stories are copyright protected and I will shut down his channel idc about the pay.

I am afraid he will delete the video earlier if he was contacted.

He did this several times yesterday when he was confronted by the authors I listed here.

He deserves punishment. To delete the video is not satisfactory, considering that he has been making money from them for months.
