I'd like a couple of laws whereby if you charge or make money through something, you need to have some human monitoring.
Surely there's precedent is it not illegal to operate an unmonitored industrial factory

#132The year is 2030. After the AI bot wars, FaceBook and Google have been crippled. They let AI automation control their content and it was deleted after OpenAI GPT10 discovered vulnerabilities in automated copyright strikes. Taco Bell won the franchise war and is the only restaurant remaining.

Taken at face value, this implies their copyright infringement claim was fraudulent, but in pursuit of a higher good. But according to many replies to that tweet, they were actually working on behalf of actual copyright infringers. Not sure what to believe.
It's common for one set of scammers to target another, to take their competitors out. So it's quite possible for them to be abusing the copyright system to take-out scamming competitors.

Pizza Hut outside the US
Indeed, in the version I saw, they said "Pizza Hut" but you could see it was badly dubbed. Only much later I learned it was originally "Taco Bell".

This seems like a huge abuse of the copyright system to me. It sounds to me like ChainPatrol doesn't actually have any IP to protect, but they are instead deputizing YouTube's copyright system to fight what they deem to be crypto scams. Absolutely wild if true.
You can definitely use your IP to take down scams.
If someone is using your name or your company's name to scam people, it is in your interest to save your name and provide people assurance that they can do business with your name.

#137I think a good baseline might be that you need to deposit say $1M and then when oops, you accidentally made a bogus claim it's OK that $1M is split between the victim of your oopsy and Youtube for their trouble - you just pay $1M to get back into the game. Outfits like this could explain to their investors that while their technology does sometimes have little goofs that cost a few billion dollars per year, once they…
That's basically Proof of Stake btw, on which Arbitrum, an Ethereum l2 chain, is based.

Contrary to this, I'd like to see 3blue1brown actually get two more strikes and get deleted per YouTube "3 strikes" policy. Imagine the furor and outrage of that. One of the most popular, meaningful, and impactful channels done in by YouTube's (and the DMCA's) ridiculous policy [1]. The public outcry from this might motivate real policy changes both within Google and other FANNG companies as well as with lawmakers. U…

Nothing will happen. Nobody cares about relatively small groups of geeks. People will write angry posts at Youtube, but there's nothing anybody can do.
For example, RZX Archive channel (that hosted replays of ZX Spectrum games) was taken down by fake copyright strikes. Its author died several years ago, so nobody could fix that.

Anything bitcoin related is wild today. Big and free money make people lose their damn minds.
This is not just a bitcoin issue.
See: Sports gambling, prediction markets, pay-later apps. Gamified finance in general encourages risky behavior.

> We have been combatting a huge volume of fake YouTube videos that are attempting to steal user funds. Unfortunately, in our mission to protect users from scams, false positives (very) occasionally slip through. So did ChainPatrol have the video taken down for copyright infringement or for "attempting to steal user funds"? Did ChainPatrol have to file an actual DMCA takedown notice to take down 3Blue1Brown's video?…
DMCA’s perjury provision is completely toothless; it might as well not be there. It doesn’t even require you affirm a copyright violation, just that you act on behalf of the rightsholder. This is a perfect example of how ineffective it is.
Barratry law does cover this. I eagerly wait for the day a lawyer is censured for violating their oath with this BS.
