Do you mind giving a link to his/her portfolio?

You can try Pixsy: https://www.pixsy.com/. For videos what I do is create thumbnail (1-2) that are most likely to recognize it. It works for me but it is just too much work. They send you monthly email of what is going on - you you can check that yourself on their site. However it is another case if you can chase the thief with them (as they claim). I have heard some people did not manage to do so because the image/artwork is on a stock agency site. For videos I am not sure if they can help at all. I do it purely to see what is going on.

I had that happen to me too couple of times. Each time takes a while with the initial response from their side (hopefully you get faster one). It seems that they sometimes have trouble recognizing what is AI and what not. You should not worry about your account being closed immediately. You have time to prove that it is not AI.

Sorry to hear that although this has happened to me quite a few times. Shuttersock will NOT remove the account if it is one or two stollen clips ( I am talking from experience) but it will do so if there are many stolen clips there. Just write them and best of luck to sorting this out in your favor.

I enjoy using my Ipad mainly for checking and browsing. I do my editing on a proper size  desktop though. Just I find Ipad quite useful since I can use it when I am relaxing on my bed for example. I am sure many people use it in a more professional manner since it has some capabilities.

I have the same problem when viewing on Ipad. It has been reported as a bug few weeks back on Discord. Since then there is not much improvement. I have to turn the Ipad vertically to see the option "sort by date". Hopefully it will be fixed.

From the report:

Subscribers: 523,000, down 63,000 year on year

Income from operations decreased 27% to $68.4 million

Operating cash flows decreased $17.9 million to $140.6 million

.......

It seems they're maximizing their profits as much as possible. Yet, if subscribers start to leave, I question the bright future they're promising.

They have made a statement that they aim to do the payments by the end of next week.

3 times they changed my amounts daily basis (monthly income) in a row, i am guessing they will not do the 15 Feb, now i think they have finalized and they will pay me today. LOL!!!
Weired Website and their finance management team.
.  I just checked mine and it is like 1/3 less in downloads of what it was yesterday..no words if this is how they manage payment to their contributors.

Indeed, this is the first time I've observed almost no sales from the US. It's quite unusual, and although the numbers aren't drastically low, the earnings are disappointing.

Seriously, Shutterstock letting stolen stuff get sold left and right isnt shocking anymore, but its super frustrating. Its like theyre cool with anyone ripping off artists as long as it fills their pockets. Makes you wonder if theyd even blink if I threw up a site and started giving away their top-tier collections for free. They gotta start caring about us creators if they want us to stick around.

Yet again, Shutterstock permits the blatant sale of stolen workshardly a surprise.

Similar experience for me: very high rejections (almost instantly within seconds) and earning steadily going down like 20-30%.

When loyalty is not their priority (since many years..) no wonder people will look elsewhere to buy/sell. They used to be #1 but something got completely off inside that company: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.shutterstock.com?sort=recency

The greediness of their management has no limit. So here are the consequences...and when the numbers talk all the rest does not matter.

By robbing their contributors they shot themselves in leg. They are late for the game of innovation. The ship has sailed.

I have not received the final payment either.

They own me 50 dollars. Waiting for two years now. Last time I contacted him (a month ago) he promised that "next week I will get my money and  he was very quick to immediately close my account. He never sent me the owned amount and no longer picks up his phone. He knows that no one will sue him for that little but I am surprised that he is still in business especially in Germany.
