A Jimquisition episode by Jim Sterling demonstrating the Copyright Deadlock, where a video includes footage owned by several companies so that competing YouTube Content ID claims cancel each other out. It highlights how absurd the system is.
HN cites it as the clearest explanation of how broken Content ID is and of the deadlock trick for defeating forced monetization.
