How do you determine which video is the "original" version? That is, how do you tell which uploader owns the content? There isn't really a way to know until the content owner makes a compliant (anyone can file a DMCA takedown, not just big media companies).
- pyre 11y agoThe system is stacked in favour of the entity making claim against the video and there is no attempt to curtail bad actors on that side of the table. The system was built with large entities like the movie studios in mind and even those movie studios overstep their bounds.
- infinitesoup 11y ago> there is no attempt to curtail bad actors on that side of the table Do you have evidence to back that up? According to YouTube's Help Center, they do revoke Content ID access from those who abuse the system[0].

- pyre 11y agoHow many "mistaken" claims will it take for (e.g.) Universal Music to have their ContentID access revoked? I posit that they would have to be VERY egregious to get kicked out of the system. Same thing for other larger corporations. I'm not saying that Google won't kick small-time abusers out of the system, but the big players would have to do something really bad to get kicked out of the system.
