This is pushing "notify and staydown", and if anyone thinks youtube's current copyright takedown system is over-broad this will be even worse. A whole new category of things you'll be rejected at the upload phase.

This guy Vasallo sounds like an entitled, self-righteous prick. YT offered him a fix but he didn’t want it.

Former Google fanboi here. If it causes YouTube some grief, I'm all for it. If they weren't profiting from piracy their policy of asking for indemnity to use Content-Id wouldn't be so skeezy.
