Police playing music while being filmed, seemingly to trigger copyright filters
The real problem here is that there is no consequence for incorrect takedowns.  If content is taken down and then it turns out to be fair use, no one suffers a penalty.<p>The DMCA and similar laws provide protection to the platform if they act quickly on takedown notices, but the law needs to be updated to provide penalties for the reporter for inappropriate takedowns.<p>This would allow Google/Facebook/et al to change their tools from automatic takedown to reporting the violation to the copyright holder, and then it is up to the copyright holder to file a claim.  If perhaps the copyright holder makes too many erroneous claims, they lose their copyright altogether.<p>Let the platforms be neutral, put the liability on the copyright violators and copyright holders equally, so both have a reason to act fairly.
