The Jimquisition

The YouTube Fair Use Protection Program (2015x51)

Fecha de emisión: Nov 19, 2015

It's a rather special edition of The Jimquisition today, as I get to be part of the unveiling of YouTube's Copyright Protection Program. It's a new plan that will see YouTube stepping up its game and financially backing content creators who find their videos unfairly targeted by spurious copyright takedowns. As a long-term target of said takedowns, it's particularly pleasing to be part of the rollout, and to reveal how one underhanded developer, Moo Tech, tried and failed to censor me. It just got a little harder to be a cowardly, censoring timewaster.
