I'm not sure how I feel about it though, since it is YouTube offering to help fight a symptom of YouTube's own content takedown system. They make it surprisingly easy to take down videos - the copyright claimer doesn't need to provide any proof. It's a good thing they're doing this, but I'd rather see them change their copyright claim system or to go into serious conversations with big media companies.
