YOUTUBE REACTS
Reacting to the issue, a YouTube spokesperson told The HIndu over email that the organisation takes copyright issues very seriously.
“We prohibit users from uploading infringing material and we cooperate with copyright holders to identify and promptly remove infringing content. If a content owner gets a copyright strike, it means that the video has been taken down from YouTube because a copyright owner sent us a complete legal request asking us to do so and we’re required by law to take down such content,” the official statement sent through email read.
YouTube said the platform also allows uploaders to submit a counter notification, if they believe that their video was mistakenly removed because it was misidentified as infringing, or qualifies as a potential fair use.
“We make several resources available to YouTube users on this; details are available at https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2814000?hl=en, " the spokesperson said.
