I suspect it is not just "publicity", but direct money earning.
If you were to look at his videos, - he is clearly in the business of
earning "click" money from his Youtube videos.
So, I suspect Mark's hypothesis as well as Ann and Rob's
clarifications are correct.
It's all consistent with his M.O.:
I listened to a portion of some other video where he apologizes for using
a dirty language in some prior videos, with lots of blubbering about
nothing.

I showed this video to my students on Monday night and everyone
enjoyed it. And some important points about copyright were
clarified.
But after having a couple of days to think about it I'm
suspicious. He
claims his lawyer told him not to make this video but he obviously
did
any way and it's still on line after a couple of weeks - even
though
he explicitly calls the person who sued him "malicious" (though
without naming the party whose copyright he infringed). He doesn't
seem like the kind of guy who would be able to shrug off a $35k
lawsuit loss as just an annoying business expense.
I'm starting to suspect this is just a publicity grab and this guy
was
never sued at all.
