Thomas the Tank Engine Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 YouTube's automated takedown tool is known for its flaws, but this week it crossed a line by attacking a purring cat. According to YouTube's Content-ID system both EMI Publishing and PRS own the rights to a 12 second purring loop. The cat in question, Phantom, has filed a dispute and hopes to reclaim his rights. Week in and week out automated bots detect and report millions of alleged copyright infringements, which are then processed by the receiving site without a human ever looking at them. Unfortunately this process is far from flawless, resulting in many false and inaccurate DMCA claims.
