==Copyright claim==

A few months after the review video was posted, Sassy Saints issued a copyright strike against Cindy's channel. When Cindy asked about this strike, the company said "Unauthorized use of our copyrighted content in your video is clearly against intellectual property laws."<ref name=":1" /> They claimed that showing their products and brand name in a video is copyright infringement. Cindy responded saying she believes her video to fall under fair use since her video is criticism and review, which is protected under fair use. Sassy Saints responded saying the claim of fair use is "not valid" and that it is "not authorized" to use their goods in her video. They then threatened legal action against Cindy.
