I'd be more interesting to build a tool to detect all the videos in Youtube that fall under fair use but are still being DMCA'd.

- doh 9y agoWe're looking into this for couple of years now. We're doing some steady progress, but far from a final result. The problem is incredibly complex, because Fair Use doesn't have any quantifiable metrics that you can translate into a computer algorithm. The gist of Fair Use is that you have to prove the intent of the uploader trying to rip you off. As you can imagine, this is a very hard thing to prove and the amount of videos being uploaded every day makes this is even harder to crack. If you're interested in this problematic, reach out and I will be happy to share more.
