The social media giant has announced that it will be taking all the right steps to eradicate all sorts of threats that video creators are often faced with and will make sure that their IPs are safe.
Facebook Inc only recently faced criticism and many accusations regarding the fact that the people posting their self-made videos on the social media site turned out to be not so safe, despite many promises from the media giant. Many video makers on the site showed how the video content that they put up for the users to see often ends up getting copied or hacked, which was increasing day by day and needed to be taken into consideration by the media firm. According to a news report by the Wall Street, it was confirmed that now the media giant is focusing solely on removing this threat on the site which seems to be creating such uproar from the video makers.
As per the news, Facebook management has decided to put marks or flags on the original videos posted by the people to make sure they are safe and there originality is not questioned once the content goes viral. Furthermore, the media company will also be making sure that the IPs each video has on the website is made secure so that the original work remains safe. Analysts are of the opinion that the social media networking giant is bringing about all of these changes only to come up to Google’s level and make sure that their system is as good, if not better, than YouTube which is run and owned by the search engine company.
However, despite the fact that Facebook seems to be aiming for the top and fighting on the level YouTube is currently being operated, analysts believe things are still not looking that good for the media giant. Since YouTube is working on Content ID that seems to be working quite fairly for the video streaming giant, analysts believe that the same level cannot be obtained by the social media network given the kind of tactics and technology they are using.
The social networking giant is reportedly working with two new specialists who are supposed to track the original source of the video which will make it easier for the giant to know who the content belongs to. Through this technique, the firm will be able to allow the video content owners to know whether their original work is being exhibited on some other profile or not. This search will be made to be done throughout the networking site, from pages and profiles to groups and fan sites.
The media company has taken the necessary steps in order to let the users know that it is serious about making their videos link directly back to them in case someone else is using them with their own names.
