Is YouTube gaining some benefit from pretending to be an open platform? I'm not sure what you're saying here.
Likewise, isn't copyright infringement is a criminal offense?
- Dayshine 7y agoNo, I'm suggesting changing laws. Youtube currently benefits massively from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_Copyright_Infringement_Liability_Limitation_Act https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_Copyright_Infringement_... as they are not directly liable for people uploading content they don't own. I'm suggesting that we only let people have that immunity if they aren't significantly curating their content. If they significantly curate their content, they should be able to curate copyright too.
- root_axis 7y agoYouTube very aggressively curates copyrighted content. This idea seems like the ideal way to stifle any competition to YouTube because the little guys cannot afford to implement a sophisticated machine learning copyright dragnet.
