I'm honestly surprised at how bad Youtube is at policing reuploaded content. Compare this to, say, music rights enforcement, where a car with a loud stereo passing you in the street can cause your video to be demonetized or taken down for rights violations.
This goes beyond reuploading. There are a ton of videos that use some clickbait-y title, the likeness of a creator and have inaccurate titles about what they contain. They then have 30-90 seconds of a clips from the creator followed by nonsensical filler to get it to the magical 10 minute duration. I'm not sure the significance of 10 minutes but there clearly is one. Better monetization? Another ad break?
And the onus of policing this is put entirely on the creator.
Honestly these regurgitation channels should be incredibly easy to detect and demonetize (if not take down entirely). They're bad for the ecosystem and just give pages of garbage results when you search for anything.
Now some people are actually good at taking long content and cutting it up into bite sized pieces. Good for them and it's smart of Asmongold to leverage them. The onus just shouldn't be on the creator to police this.
- cameronbrown 7y agoThe ten minute mark is to get an ad when the video ends.
- Sekhmet 7y agoWhen your video is longer than 10 minutes you can place ads manually wherever you want and increase the total number of ads in the video.
- ascii_only 7y agoHow is your magic algorithm will distinguish "bad" channels from game reviewers,movie critics and other reviwers? Or should they all be banned too? Also how it will detect that something is fair use?
