How Google fights piracy
Google has released its How Google Fights Piracy report, which states it is generating more revenue for rights holders and doing more to battle copyright-infringing activity.
“Through our YouTube and Google Play products, we have helped millions of content creators worldwide generate revenue,” said Google.
“We have also provided consumers with easy-to-use platforms for finding licensed copies of their favorite content.”
Google said YouTube has generated over $2 billion for rights holders by monetizing user-uploaded content through Content ID.
The company said it has also taken steps to prevent infringing links from appearing in Google search results.
Google listed a few highlights in its ongoing efforts to fight piracy, including finding copyright solutions that work, providing new revenue streams for content owners, and connecting fans to content.
