            Collecting YouTube Video Fingerprinting False Positives

                 http://lauren.vortex.com/archive/000320.html


Greetings.  As I mentioned yesterday, the YouTube/Google Digital
Rights Management (DRM) video "fingerprinting" system is now
operational ( http://lauren.vortex.com/archive/000316.html ).

Given the vast scale of YouTube, this is taking video 
fingerprinting -- and DRM in general -- into an entirely new 
deployment realm, and it should be fascinating to see how well 
it works in practice on YouTube.

In furtherance of a better public understanding of this process,
I've set up a form for the reporting of perceived false positives
from the YouTube fingerprinting system.

I'd appreciate it greatly if persons who feel that their submitted
videos have been inappropriately or incorrectly flagged as
"forbidden" by the system would use the form to let me know as many
particulars as they feel comfortable providing.

Details are at the PFIR "YouTube 'False Positive' Reporting Form" itself:

Thanks very much.
