Isn't this what YouTube calls content ID? They alert you that your content is up somewhere, then you have the option of monetizing it, or having it taken down.

Uh interesting but sadly it doesn't look like it is open for all:

Not quite trivial: people can crop, skew, vignette, mirror, timestretch and scale video to try to defeat it. YouTube's Content ID seems to be vulnerable to this sort of thing still.

I think that's why many of these systems focus on audio. It's harder to change in a way that beats fingerprinting but doesn't ruin the viewing experience.

I think the majority of the cases are uploaders that basically post the same content.

ContentID is limited to few companies. It requires training, is not multi platform, and doesn't stop freebooting.
