Re:Ten Hours of Static Gets Five Copyright Notices by Asdfbla on Friday March 09, 2018 @10:26AM (#16552334)
This seems to be one of the less surprising false-positives of Youtube's copyright detection algorithm. You match millions of hours of copyrighted material vs. noise, seems like you have a multiple testing problem and at least one thing will inadvertently match somewhere in the 10 hours noise video

Wonder what Youtube can do here, except speed up dispute resolution. With datasets of their size, false-positives seem inevitable.

Do copyright-owners just set the system to auto-monetization or -takedown? If so, maybe Youtube should change their policy to require more manual action from copyright owners.
