As a YouTube representative told Polygon, once those reference files are provided to YouTube, it’s easier for teams to keep an eye on what is being uploaded illegally and what’s not. When it comes to livestreams, YouTube’s team expedites the process of reviewing copyright infringement claims to ensure that those streams can be taken down. While the company does work with rights holders to ensure that inauthentic material is taken down once uploaded, YouTube isn’t vigilantly keeping an eye on what videos are infringing on copyright and what videos aren’t. YouTube isn’t a mediator in copyright situations as a company, it does not decide who owns the copyrighted material. “When copyright holders work with us to provide reference files for their content, we ensure all live broadcasts are scanned for third party content, and we either pause or terminate streams when we find matches to third party content,” a representative told Polygon. Why, then, are Rick and Morty livestreams not only allowed to run on YouTube, but are featured prominently on the front page and as recommended content? According to a YouTube representative, it’s up to the owner of the content to inform YouTube of what to keep an eye out for. At some point, we’ve all come across a message after trying to play a specific video on YouTube that claims it violates the company’s copyright policies or is deceptive.
