Kate Cox. Ars Technica; CBS’ overzealous copyright bots hit Star Trek virtual Comic-Con panel
"Media companies that usually have a large presence at events like
SDCC worked hard to create streaming alternative content—but it seems
they forgot to tell their copyright bots.
ViacomCBS kicked things off today with an hour-long panel showing off its slew of current and upcoming Star Trek projects: Discovery, Picard, Lower Decks, and Strange New Worlds...
Even if the presentation didn't look like a real episode of Discovery to the home viewer, it apparently sounded close enough: after the Star Trek
Universe virtual panel began viewers began to lose access to the
stream. In place of the video, YouTube displayed a content ID warning
reading: "Video unavailable: This video contains content from CBS CID,
who has blocked it on copyright grounds."
After being blacked out for about 20 minutes, the panel was restored, and the recording of the virtual panel has no gaps in playback."
