I had someone steal one of my videos on youtube. I reported it for infringement and it was taken down in 30 minutes. I found that pretty impressive.
A month ago one of my videos about a reported and fixed XSS vulnerability was taken down for violating some rules (it didn't say what rules exactly). I submitted an appeal and it was reinstated a few days later.
Several years ago one of my videos that used some public domain footage was taken down for copyright infringement. I appealed it saying the footage was in the public domain and they reinstated my video several days later.
- stephen_g 11y agoI don't understand the point of your comment - it's obvious and well known that YouTube's copyright protection procedures work in some cases. Describing a few of those situations doesn't really add anything to this thread of the conversation or do anything to invalidate the fact that in some specific ways it's incredibly stupidly broken..
- Flimm 11y agoAnecdotes invite more anecdotes, and contrasting ones are the most informative because they remind us of how little anecdotes are actually worth.
- beedogs 11y agoSo... uh... I guess it works sometimes in favor of the actual content owner. But I'm not sure what your point is.
- Buge 11y agoHe posted an anecdote of a bad thing happening to a friend and it not being resolved. I posted how all 3 times I've had something negative happen on youtube, it was resolved through the appeals process. I'm trying to give hope/advice to people that appeals do work in many cases.
