Except the example in that video Facebook wasn't in the wrong.. it was the person uploading the video. Additionally the Facebook and YouTube advertising models are different when it comes to where the money goes and how it is earned/collected.

 

I believe that the intent of that video was not to highlight any wrongdoing by Facebook but to those that actually upload the videos and to give advice on preventative measures. The same exact thing 'Freebooting' is done on YouTube itself. It is neither Facebook or YouTube at fault but the users.

The point is that Facebook purposely makes it extremely complicated to take the video down again. The longer it's up, the more money they make with it.

So what would your suggestion be on the changes to be made if you could?

 

Once you create a service as big as Facebook you are naturally going to hit a man hours barrier that means you cannot process every request sent in, especially if multiple requests are sent in for the same reason. Increasing the requirements and conditions for such a request allows a mitigation of invalid requests to be made.

 

In the end the consumer drives the companies to become harsher and the companies are forced to hide behind such processes as DMCA.

 

I do not think it as black and white as that video makes out.

Youtube isn't small either, but they take down contents very quickly - within a day - if you rightfully complain.

 

Facebook is clearly stalling on purpose  - as stated in both videos.

Fair would be to get the rightful owner of the content the advertising money they deserve and to punish the uploader. But thats not gonna happen.

 

Good that Facebook and others wont have it that easy anymore in the EU after the Vienna verdict. They wont be allowed to store datas of EU citizens in the US anymore (in case you didn't know). Since law suits like this can be successful, I hope someone will sue them for their sharing illegal contents pracitce.

Unless youtube recently got much better you dont need to actually have reasonable proof of a violation. They just take someones word for it. 'Someone' meaning media companies or their lawyers that have no concept of 'fair use' and using materials for things like critical review.
