I don't understand how this is "Facebook's" piracy problem. It sounds like the British newspaper's piracy problem.

- brokentone 11y agoIf the tooling isn't there for reporting. Youtube, for example, has worked really hard with Content ID to be able to automatically report and repoint infringing content.
- dasil003 11y agoNot just that, but the fact that the content is unsearchable, and the fact that Facebook is profiting heavily from it as fuel for one of its latest "frictionless engagement" features is fairly damning. That's not to say Facebook isn't taking reasonable measures, but if you look how incentives are aligned it doesn't inspire confidence.
- tedunangst 11y agoThis may be the first post in the history of HN that isn't completely negative about content ID.
