TechCrunch writes about the new technology which GUBA is working on named “Johnny.” Basically it detects copyrighted footage in videos and is able to flag them.

This could really change the online video landscape, if it works. Goodbye Animal Planet clips on YouTube, for one thing.

This is very interesting news on many fronts. But more importantly, just the pure technology of it seems pretty cool. Not sure what the algorithm to detect these images would be but i’m sure it would be an entertaining read (for a computer science guy anyways )
