No. He sued the person who published this video, in order to stay anonymous.

Here is an article about it.

After three years of wrangling, a decision was reached in court: Fritsch was forced to agree to only use the video if he manipulates the images in such a way that he can't be identified. Despite this, there's a sense that the horse has very much bolted. Fritsch might have been gagged, but there are hundreds of other artists who have made derivative works that will remain online. "It's too late. That's the whole absurdity of the trial."

In addition to censoring the video, Fritsch must pay the plaintiff €8,000 -- the vast majority of the money he made from the video. That's on top of the €7,000 in legal bills. He says that the trial will bankrupt him.

Maybe don't keep posting the video then?
