Another problem with the YT system (EUCD17) is that it is not a legal system. At least under DCMA (which Content ID pre-empts), you could seek legal damages for false claims.
If Google wants to continue with Content ID, the fix is easy: hold ad money in escrow until their entire dispute process is complete (from the initial flag). This will prevent the ad money piracy that is so rampant on the platform right now.
- doh 6y ago> Another problem with the YT system (EUCD17) is that it is not a legal system. You are misinformed. YT System has nothing to do with the EUCD17 which is not yet active. CID was built 12 years ago to get out of the Viacom lawsuit. EUCD17 (or more precisely its implementations) are laws that you can actually sue under. They have concrete obligations (licensing, alternative dispute resolution, ...) and concrete penalties for misbehavior. In fact, as it stands, YouTube's Content ID is not going to be complaint with the requirements of the EUCD17.
