YouTube Is Rolling Out a New Copyright Match Tool to Catch Re-Uploads of Creators’ Content

Those with more than 100,000 subscribers will get it starting next week

YouTube is introducing a new Copyright Match tool to help creators sniff out re-uploads of their content on other channels, after testing it for nearly one year.

Product manager Fabio Magagna detailed the new tool in a blog post, saying that it will begin rolling out next week to creators with more than 100,000 subscribers and writing, “We know how frustrating it is when your content is uploaded to other channels without your permission and how time-consuming it can be to manually search for these re-uploads.”
