I have yet to see a situation where somebody got in trouble for covering songs that are originally vocaloid songs. Something like "PONPONPON" might be different, because despite having a very popular Len cover, it was originally by an artist. However, many singers seem to cover it and I don't think they had permission. Realistically, I wouldn't worry about it. If you're not profiting off of these covers, I don't feel there should be a reasonable copyright issue. There sometimes is anyways but I think that's very rare. It's kind of like worrying about getting hit by a car on your way to school. If you're careful it probably won't happen. That's my opinion, anyways. But if it helps, as a backup measure most Youtaite have backup accounts in case something happens to their first one.
