Just watched the video. He has 2 points:
copyright is hard because it has to go through bureaucracy. But one thing is the law itself and another is the process. If the process is slow is not the content of the law's fault. This is why YouTube created Content ID, to try to resolve these cases in a more agile way. They are too massive to make every case go through the whole legal expensive path.
the threshold for content to turn into public domain is too large. No idea how this relates to YouTube copyright issues though. Yeha, maybe the threshold is too large, but is that related to the complaints content creators have around Youtube's Content ID? Nope. That's just something he wanted to throw in there, which is just opinion.
Thinking about it.... Maybe lowering the threshold could be a relief on the bureaucracy because there would be less open cases. Still, not sure if that would be enough. We're uploading content exponentially, any justice system would collapse if experts had to check every single case.
This is a very hard problem to solve. With the HUGE incoming wave of AI generated content and the copyright issues surrounding AI, I'm expecting the shit to hit the fan spectacularly.
