Correct, it's the inverse that requires disclosure by Youtube.

Still, I find it interesting. If you can't synthetically alter someone's performance to be "worse", is it OK that the NFL synthetically altered Alicia Key's performance to be "better"?

For a more consequential example, imagine Biden's marketing team "cleaning up" his speech after he has mumbled or trailed off a word, misleading the US public during an election year. Should that be disclosed?

I don't understand the distinction. if the intent is to protect the user, then what if I make the sound better for rival contestants on American idol and don't do it for singers of a certain race.

seems to comply?
