You Tube Copyright AI
If you've been following this blog for a while, you might know that I have a YouTube channel where I publish my music tracks. As of May 2025, there are over 1,000 tracks available.
All the tracks use copyright-free samples, which makes things much easier for me. The companies I purchase the samples from provide written confirmation that the samples are copyright-free, so that's reassuring, right?
Well, it turns out there's a scam going around where some people falsely claim copyright on these copyright-free samples. If these samples are used in monetized videos, the scammers end up receiving the money because the YouTube AI system, as of May 2025, can't yet distinguish between what's truly copyright-free and what's falsely claimed. The system is set up to believe anyone who claims ownership of the copyright.
It gets so bad that someone even posted a video demonstrating the scam. They used a track they created from scratch, but still received a copyright strike on their own music because someone else falsely claimed copyright on some of the sounds they had created!
Crazy, right?
