I got served some papers the other day. I mean, a man came and served me papers.
Some of you guys know Kai the Hitchhiker, who is a notorious figure in
entertainment, I guess.
He's a homeless, or not homeless, he's a vagabond.
He is a tumbleweed with a bit of violence that surrounds him.
He filed a lawsuit against me for a TikTok clip that was put up, or Instagram
clip, that I didn't create, that I shared.
And I wanted to talk with my buddy Dan Morgan over at the Morgan & Morgan
attorney firm, at the Morgan & Morgan law firm, and see what the deal was.
So let's make that call now, if we can.
Hello, this is Dan.
Hey, Dan, man. What's up, bud? It's Theo.
Hey, man. What's going on?
Well, I sent you, you know, I got served. I want to talk about the Kai, the Hitchhiker
thing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. I got those documents that I reviewed them actually
over the weekend.
Yeah, man. So is it a real, is it a real thing? Like, is it, I'm just, I guess
I'm kind of, I don't know, you know, I guess I'm scared, I'm, yeah, I'm scared
about it.
I don't know what to do.
It is real in the sense that he did file it. He did make some claims. He's
currently incarcerated. I believe in New Jersey, it seemed that he kind of
learned the law a little bit and drafted up this complaint.
So it is an actual complaint that did get served in federal court. You know, as
far as the merits to it, I don't think there's much there.
I think a motion to the Smiths will kind of clean it up for you.
Okay. So what do I, what is he asking for?
So he's making some pretty egregious claims in there. I mean, he goes into a
lot of TMI really about these other cases and these other legal troubles that's
going on.
But then he pretty much does some type of algebraic equation that, that gets to
a demand request somewhere around $30 million.
I think it's around 20, 29,750,000, something around those damages from YouTube
and Instagram views.
Well, what do I do? I must have to work. I mean, do I have to work forever or
what?
I mean, it sounds like he's claiming you've already made this money. So the
question is, what have you done with all that money?
Dude, what is he talking about, dude? I fucking have a, I drive a Ford Ranger.
He's saying you made all this money off using this, uh, this deep fake of him.
You've, you've, you've stolen his, uh, his valor, so to speak.
I didn't make it.
You stole it his name.
Sorry.
He's saying it's a mother. Oh, no, you're all good. Yeah.
He has this whole outlandish theory that you have a, a fake identity daughter
account where you made this and then repurpose it to then, to then, uh,
post on your YouTube and without having to be the point person that he could go
after.
Wow.
It's like a 30 page manifesto complaint. He, he's, he's, he's doctored up from,
uh, from this federal penitentiary.
So is this, so, so what, when do I, how long do, when do I need to, when do I
need to do something?
Um, so it looks like he got, like he, he served about eight days ago or so.
Like, uh, you got 21 days per, per federal civil procedure. So, you know, just,
just an answer pretty much saying, you know, this is a bogus.
A motion to dismiss and a judge should just, just throw it out for you, but you
do have to kind of make sure you get those timelines done or else there could
be a default judgment where old guy could get a check from Theo for 30 million.
Well, he's never, I don't know where he would cash it. Yeah. That's a thing.
Uh,
Am Scott, I think he might take it.
Um, okay. So what do you, do you, does, uh, does y'all's law firm help with
that? Or is that something I need to do?
That's something that I can help you get, get to the right person to do. You
know, we're, we're, we're more of a plaintiff's type firm.
We don't want to do this defense work, but I can definitely get you in the
right hands out there with a California federal attorney, get this thing
cleaned up for you.
Okay. Jesus dude. Yeah. I mean, I, um, and is this, is this going to be like a
thing that happens in the world?
Because this was a deep fake that I didn't have anything to do with. I mean,
obviously I repurposed it and put it out and I think it, I thought it was funny
and entertaining.
So I don't know if there is some responsibility there. I don't know.
Exactly. And when you kind of sent this over to me, I kind of started doing
some research and it's obviously a thing that's popping up more and more now
with technology getting as it is.
And you just really put in any video with any picture and it turns it out, but
you know, pretty much it falls under some copyright exceptions where,
where it's parody. It's an ultimate defense. So, um, you know, it's, it's art,
it's parody. It's not meant to be real. You know,
there's some protections out there, especially like political figures and
revenge porn stuff like that,
where there's been laws that have been put, put into place for deep fakes. But
as far as, you know,
this type of stuff is really, it's just parody where, where, where there's no
real recourse or damages that can be assessed for it.
Wow. It's interesting. Cause it's, it, that's going to be, I mean, with, with
CGI and that sort of this kind of thing,
this is going to be probably a growing field. Yeah.
Oh, it's popping up. Yeah. Cause I mean, they got, you know, when, when the
political race is around,
they'll just take the whatever party they don't like and just have them saying
some outlandish,
I'll land his comments, like, you know, crazy stances and they put it out there
on YouTube and it gets retweeted.
And I say, you know, it becomes fact.
How, I mean, how do we, what does the future hold?
I mean, even now it's like, I mean, the videos are getting better and better.
But now they even have it where you can type in, you know, manifestos or lyrics
and it will spit it out in the person's voice too.
So there doesn't even have to be a recording and saying, it's just, you know,
it's copying their vocals now and spitting it out.
Yeah. Yeah. We just been talking about some of that recently, that chat GPT, I
think it's called.
And when that merges with like holograms or deep fakes, it's going to get, I
mean,
it's going to get really strange. You know, I,
I saw a thing a while back where they had so much footage and audio of Joe Rogan
that
they could make him have, they could have audio of him now saying absolutely
almost anything in the world.
Oh, exactly. Yeah. And that, that's how they have all these politicians,
not that they make the speeches, you know, three speeches a day.
They're just downloading it all and saying, Hey, let's make them say, you know,
listen to like, Oh, they're like, like power started in the past.
It would take, I mean, you know, years to chop up something to have it even,
not even some analogy is type it into a,
into a chat pod and spits it out in 30 seconds.
Yeah, man. I mean, all we cared about was make them say, Oh,
nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. And it's just changed so much.
Is this,
is this going to be a field that you guys will cover a lot at Shell's law firm?
Or is this,
I mean, if there was,
there was damages against the natural plaintiff where if there was some real
harm
that was done and, you know,
and something came from it,
we definitely look, look into it.
But as far as just these celebrities having deep fakes made and stuff like
that, you know,
it's probably something that we're going to stay away and just see how the,
the law evolves around it.
Amen.
Dude.
Thanks so much, man.
I appreciate it, bro.
It's definitely been spooky.
And yeah,
the guy came up and served the papers and I thought it was like a dude,
like a,
I don't want to say like a homeless dude,
not home.
I mean,
he was like,
yeah,
they're sneaky.
Those process servers get sneaky with it,
bro.
I thought it was like kind of a,
like kind of a dude who was being kind of homoerotic or something.
Cause he kind of just,
he was hitting on you.
I was hitting on you.
I mean,
he just like kind of moseyed up.
I thought he'd written me a poem or something.
And then,
and then he hit me with that.
And he kind of like,
he didn't give like,
yeah,
yeah.
It kind of like,
it was just,
I don't know,
bro,
but I'm trying to meet a wife.
It was just surprised.
And I'd never really been served any papers.
I'd seen it happen a lot,
but I'd never got them myself.
So it was almost kind of nice dude.
And it was almost like a Valentine in a weird way.
Right.
Yeah.
Someone was thinking about you.
Yeah.
That's true.
These days.
That's nice.
Dan Morgan.
Thanks so much,
man.
I appreciate it,
brother.
Anytime,
man.
I'm always a call away.
Yeah.
Thank you so much,
dude.
I'll chat with you soon.
All right.
Sounds good,
man.
All right.
Peace.
If you have a question about a legal issue,
you have something that you think they might be able to help with.
The least I can do for that,
for the help there is to put their information below.
You know,
it's scary.
It's scary when something comes along or when there's something in the legal
realm
and you don't know what to do.
You know,
that's,
that can be spooky.
Hope you enjoyed that video and you can watch another and you can watch this
one.
You can watch this one.
Different options,
different choices.
Some guy just brings you a one option,
not this guy.
Two options.
Watch one.
This one or this one.
Thank you.
