"Youtube's Copyright Match Tool"
I know a lot of producers here have complained about pirates uploading your vids on Youtube. As of today, finally that's come to a halt. Youtube has just released a copyright match tool. It scans every video and it it matches ones you've uploaded, you click one box, boom, it's gone.
If there's 25 of your vids uploaded, you check all 25...then...gone.
No more trying to hunt for your content every day or hoping someone else reports it.

Has this changed in some way? The youtube copyright matching launched 2 years ago and is only for youtube partner channels and only checks against your uploaded youtube videos.
I suggest this thread be moved to Store owners/Producers forum.
This Match Tool concept has one MAJOR flaw in it's concept -- it assumes that Youtube treats all content producers fairly and equally (provided they comply with their TOS....i.e. no nudity or sexually oriented videos) and that all Wam producers producing non nude content can use their system, and that it is the ORIGINAL content producers who are the ones who uploaded their content and only the pirates are being matched and blocked. However, that is far from what is happening. Youtube does not treat non nude Wam producers fairly. Any Wam producer who has tried to set up a Youtube channel will eventually get suspended and then deleted. This has happened to me several times, and even happened to Mostwam, who had the largest numbers of subscribers (13,000) with no nudity, and they also got suspended and deleted with no warning. Therefore the problem most Wam producers face is that they cannot use Youtube themselves (because they deleted) but the pirates CAN get away with stealing their media and posting it on their pirate Youtube channels. This Copyright Match tool does NOTHING to delect piracy for original content producers, because original content producers cannot or do not use Youtube for their media anyway. The sad joke is....this system just ASSUMES that the first person to upload a video....must be the copyright holder...with no verification that they are the true copyright holder. Youtube specify that in the details of how their Copyright Match tool works. Here is the l text from Youtube on how their Copyright tool works....
"....Firstly they say you MUST be a member of their Content Partnership Program....which means to need to have a MINIMUM of 1000 subscribers, and have a Google Adsense account for Ads links to your channel first.....then....for the Match tool to work, your channel MUST have at least 100,000 subscribers."
To put that in perspective, that is IMPOSSIBLE.....because no Wam Producer in the 15 year history of Youtube has EVER reached even close to that many subscribers. the World Record for the most amount of Subscribers on a single WAM content Youtube Channel is 13,000.....that was held by Mostwam....until Youtube suddenly deleted their channel without any merit or warning. And here is what Youtube says ....
1) "The creator must be the first person to upload the video."
Great....no verification.....so the first pirate to steal your content....is treated as the copyright holder.
2 ) "The time of upload is how YouTube determines the owner of the video."
Great.....so hurry up Pirates....and be the first ones to steal and upload the video and thus be treated as the Copyright Holder. All the true Wam Producers are not in the ballgame, because Youtube has already ostracized those producers and banned them from having Youtube channels.
3) "Once the YouTube copyright match tool has found a match, the creator can choose either to do nothing, get in touch with the freeloader, or request YouTube to remove the video.
There is a maximum of 7-day period allotted for the freeloader to remove the video."
OK......so the pirate who first uploaded the video is treated as the owner, and all the tardy pirates who were too late in stealing a video that someone else already stole are outta luck.
Other Youtube instructions are
" The YouTube creator should not file a copyright takedown request for content that you do not own exclusively, such as public domain content.
Also, the owner of the video should consider whether the matched content could be regarded as fair use or could be subject to some other exceptions to copyright.
The YouTube Copyright Match Tool is for creators with more than 100k subscribers.
Only videos that have at least 25 views may be detected.
Some creator's videos may not be eligible for matching if the video is already protected by Content ID, or has a Content ID claim on it.
Even if a video isn't detected, if you are sure it's infringing your copyright you can use the manual copyright abuse tool
Misuse or abuse may result in loss of access to the tool or termination of your YouTube Partnership"
This is an insidious nod nod wink wink system that only works for G rated non Wam content producers who have 100,000+ subscribers....and have millions of views....and who are fully embraced by the Youtube Partnership Program.
Wam Producers are NOT welcome on Youtube......and are arbitrarily suspended and deleted....and the pirates know that, so they upload our media under their channels instead, so this system merely allows the first pirate to claim what he stole, and merely shuts out the later pirates from uploading the same video etc.
This concept can only work if Youtube becomes more tolerant and starts to allow non nude Wam Content Producers to post their original content.....and they need to lower their match tool threshold from 100,000+ Youtube channels....to channels with 1000+ subscribers.

He's more potato now than man. Twisted and evil.
I can only tell you how I operate. Every single vid I produce immediately goes on YT, edited correctly and marked as 18+ so I don't have to worry about it getting flagged. I have no issues with my accounts being taken down.
The copyright tool was emailed to me today as available to use, I'm not a content partner nor do I have anywhere close to 100,000 subscribers.
YT is also my largest marketing conversion platform and again, videos edited correctly and marked as 18+? I have yet to have a single one taken down....ever.
Aside from the fact that I always upload my own content first, I did get a copyright strike on my own content once - I disputed it, they replied asking me to email them from my company's emails address - I did and it was re-instated.

I have been using match tool on my YouTube channel from around April 2019.
It is useful to some extent, but not perfect.
When a pirated video was noticed on control panel by match tool, and I went to the uploader's channel, I often found other pirated copy of my trailers, which had not been detected by match tool.
I don't know why detection is so incomplete. I guess there are many undetected pirate copies even after using match tool.
And, it can not find pirated copy of sold videos even though they contains partial short same scenes from trailers.
If it can detect full versions by using trailer videos as clues, it will be more useful.

I had a YouTube channel hosting my trailers for a couple of years - mainly because they're the only OVP that can be embedded in UMD posts (I found that very few bothered to follow the link only path to my Vimeo channel).
All was well with my own uploads for some time although I would frequently hear of more prominent producers' videos and channels being taken down and suspended.
I was sceptical about a 'conspiracy', but then it started happening to me too. Arbitrary suspensions and takedowns claiming to be contravening the 'community standards'. I tried listing them as 18 (although there was never any nudity or overt sexual content in the trailers) but this made no difference. I eventually got fed up and closed mine down entirely, too.
It seems that once you're noticed - however long that takes - you can't win and you're done.

Bringing pleasure to literally tens of people!
Yes, YouTube rules are very arbitrary and incomprehensible.
In April and May 2019, my two trailers were deleted by YouTube because of violation of "spam, deceptive practices and scams policy".
https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2801973?hl=en
I thought this article did not true to my trailers from any angles, so appealed immediately in accordance with their appeal system.
YouTube had neglected my objection for half year, but suddenly restored two videos in November with no explanation.
In addition to it, they canceled the 18+ flag, which had been added by them before delete.
I can't understand what YouTube think.
