YouTube Copyright Filtering by September
A Google lawyer announced on Friday that they will apply video fingerprinting technology to YouTube by September.
This comes as great news to countless of video content producers, that are now seeing their copyright videos on YouTube without their permission.
The video screening technology will consist of a computer system which will automatically scan all videos uploaded to YouTube and compare them to a collection of digital fingerprints built by Google. According, to Google the process will only take a few minutes to scan and determine its acceptance onto YouTube.
This is definitely a large step forward for YouTube and one that will hopefully help to spend less time in the courtroom and more time revolutionizing the Internet.
