Windows 10: New Copyright Match tool on YouTube to find re-uploads of your content

Brink · Jul 11, 2018

We know how frustrating it is when your content is uploaded to other channels without your permission and how time consuming it can be to manually search for these re-uploads. We currently provide a number of ways for copyright owners to protect their work, but we’ve heard from creators that we should do more and we agree.

Today we are excited to announce the new Copyright Match tool, which is designed to find re-uploads of your content on other channels. Here’s how it works: after you upload a video, YouTube will scan other videos uploaded to YouTube to see if any of them are the same or very similar. When there is a match, it will appear in the “matches” tab in the tool and you can decide what to do next.

We’ve been testing this tool with creators for nearly a year to make it safe and effective for the whole community. Thank you for all the feedback you provided. It helped us build a product that will help a lot of creators.

Here’s what you need to know:

It's important that you’re the first person to upload your video to YouTube. The time of upload is how we determine who should be shown matches.

This tool is intended to find full re-uploads. If you find a clip of your content that you’d like removed, you can always report it via the copyright webform.

Once the tool has found a match, you can choose either to do nothing, to get in touch with the other creator, or request that YouTube remove the video. When you request removal you can do so with or without a 7-day delay to allow the uploader to correct the issue themselves. Takedown requests will be reviewed to make sure they comply with YouTube’s copyright policies.

Before taking action, we ask that you carefully evaluate each match to confirm that you own the rights to the matched content and ensure that you believe it infringes on your copyright. You should not file a copyright takedown request for content that you do not own exclusively, such as public domain content. You should also consider whether the matched content could be considered fair use or could be subject to some other exceptions to copyright and hence not require permission for reuse.

You might be wondering: Isn’t this Content ID? No. The Copyright Match Tool does use similar matching technology used by Content ID, but the Copyright Match Tool is a unique tool designed especially for YouTube creators who have problems with unauthorized re-uploads.

Next week, we’ll start rolling this tool out to creators with more than 100k subscribers. As this is a powerful feature, we will monitor usage closely and will continue to expand over the coming months with the long-term goal of making it available to every creator in the YouTube Partner program.

Thank you for helping to keep YouTube a platform which inspires vibrant creativity and respects and protects creative rights. Learn more about Copyright on YouTube.

Call of Duty Black Ops III

Just uploaded my latest episode of call of duty black ops 3 and got an email saying I have a copyright claim against it.

Hi ,

Due to a copyright claim, your YouTube video has been blocked. This means that your video can no longer be played on YouTube.

Video title: Call of Duty Black Ops 3 Part 10
Claimed by: Activision Publishing, Inc.

Audio-visual content

18:32 - 19:38 play match

Why? Not any different from the others I have done. Any idea's?

Activision claimed that between 18:32 and 19:38 is blocked worldwide so I have cut this part out and will upload again this edited version.

Verizon, YouTube Near Content Deal

Verizon plans to enable its users to view Youtube's videos directly on their mobile phones as well as televisions.

The deal will center around Verizon Wireless's V-Cast service and Verizon's FiOS television offering, which is continuing to expand around the United States. V-Cast utilizes the carrier's high-speed EVDO network, and enables customers to watch videos and listen to music on their phones.

With Verizon planning to add Adobe Flash capabilities to its handsets, YouTube would make some of its Flash videos available to V-Cast subscribers who pay $15 per month for the service. It's not clear, however, how well the video would translate to such small screens. At first, 50 to 100 most popular videos will be available for viewing, slowly the selection will expand.

According to analysts, the deal seems more about appearance than actual meat. First, the audience for videos on cellular phones is still quite tiny, and mobile video has yet to truly find a market. In addition, Verizon's FiOS television service is still in its early rollout stages, only reaching a limited number of households - 118,000 at last count.

Moreover, copyright issues continue to plague YouTube and new parent company Google. Much of the content uploaded to YouTube is done so without copyright approval, meaning the service would need to forge agreements with content providers before it sells videos to other companies.
