Case study 2:
Someone downloaded a media file from an online video sharing platform and uploaded it to their personal profile.
The media provider identified the file and discussed the matter: "Technology is advancing and becoming helpful in confronting piracy. We have technology that tells us when our music is popping up online and sends automatic takedown requests which saves us a lot of time."
"Google's Content ID system allows rights holders to deliver reference files of their own content to YouTube and allows the rights holder to decide what YouTube should do when matching content is found. Content ID scans over 250 years of video every day. The rights holder can choose to make money from the matching content by adding an advertisement, or they can simply decide to track the viewing statistics, or alternatively, they may decide to block the content from YouTube. This system affords copyright owner's not just an anti-piracy solution, but also a new business model for copyright owners and YouTube alike. The majority of partners using Content ID choose to monetise their claims, and many have seen significant increases in their revenue as a result." (Internet Service Provider)
