Now YouTubers Can Check Video Copyright Before Uploading
JAKARTA - YouTube presents a new feature to make it easier for content creators. Through a feature called Checks, content creators or YouTubers will avoid copyright infringement.
Other YouTube users who upload videos belonging to content creators without permission will be detected for violating copyright. The Checks feature will check the video so that it is known to have violated it or not.
With this feature, content creators can check videos first before posting them on YouTube. If the video has been checked by the system and the "Ad Suitability" and "Copyright" options are green, then the video is safe and can be uploaded to the YouTube channel.
This Checks feature can ensure that the video does not violate the copyright and advertisement guidelines that have been determined.
The presence of the Checks feature can optimize the classification of videos by using the monetization icon to make it easier for videos to be monetized.
Later there will be two types of monetization, namely "green dollar sign" in which the video will be open to all advertisements. Meanwhile, the "yellow dollar sign" is for advertisements that will be broadcasted on a limited basis.
This new system from YouTube depends on Content ID which can identify the originality of the music used in the video. Content ID is a certification submitted by YouTuber for the authenticity of their account.

If the Content ID has claimed another user's video as his own work, then YouTube will give special sanctions. This feature serves to protect the user's copyright.
Meanwhile, if content creators find other users posting videos that resemble theirs, then the Youtuber will get a notification from Checks to remove similar video snippets. The purpose of this Checks presence is to highlight the authenticity of the content creator's work.
Meanwhile, if there are other users who acknowledge the content that has been uploaded as their own, YouTube will process the problem in a serious way as reported by TheVerge, Tuesday, March 23.
