08. The Algorithm

Jokes aside, YouTube’s copyright enforcement mechanisms are flawed, resulting in false copyright claims and negative financial impacts on content creators worldwide.

Regardless of intent, the system is being abused and needs repair. (Or maybe just human people to make a sane judgment where algorithms can’t).
