YouTube Selects Filtering Software

The Mercury News has learned that Google will use technology from Los Gatos-based Audible Magic. That company’s software was mentioned in the U.S. Supreme Court’s Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios vs. Grokster ruling as evidence that file-sharing services could keep pirated files off their networks.

While I’m all for stupid media shooting itself in the face, let’s hope it doesn’t splatter blood on smart media. If Audible Magic’s filtering inconveniences legitimate YouTube content publishers in any way, YouTube is in trouble.
