YouTube "False Positive" Reporting Form
As part of ongoing research regarding Digital Rights Management
(DRM) issues, PFIR is collecting information from users of
YouTube, who have received what they believe to be inappropriate
or incorrect notices or reports from the YouTube/Google
automated video "fingerprinting" system (called "YouTube Video Identification"), indicating that their
uploaded videos would be removed (or would not be posted) due to perceived conflicts with
video rights owners under the DMCA or other laws, regulations, rules, or the like.
If you have received such a report, please include on the form below as much
information about your case as you feel comfortable providing, including any
relevant URLs and information regarding any further notices from
YouTube -- e.g., if you challenged/appealed a video takedown, what
is the ongoing or final disposition? Any other info that will help me
understand the situation would also be appreciated, especially why you
feel that the YouTube system has treated your particular video submission in an
incorrect or inappropriate manner.
You do not need to indentify yourself or provide an e-mail address
unless you desire to do so.
You can also e-mail the details to me at the address shown below
if you wish.
Either way, while I may discuss publicly
various statistics and results derived from the
aggregated information collected
via this form and associated research,
any specific details that you provide regarding your situation will be considered to be private and will be handled
in accordance with the standard PFIR Privacy Policy.Thanks very much.
