It wasn't anyone elses video (at least not one I've seen on YouTube). Apparently the new filters they have in place caught certain elements of the video and made the system think it was porn. It never even published, it went right to deleted.

I just thought it funny that a handwashing commercial would be canned before it's even published. :thumbs:

Were you trying to put it on you tube from the site where you found it?? Maybe it has the companies copyright hard coded into the video. Look on the bright side they are banning videos you did yourself.

No, impossible. It's an old video. I had this sitting on my drive D and I was doing some file movement to replace the drive. I forgot I even had this video. I uploaded it to YouTube just for gits and shiggles. Apparently the "hand motions" looked like someones .... going through sex motions, and the filter detected it. It was not a copyright violation, the upload apparently violated their Terms of Service.

(Which is why YouTube can sometimes take hours to process even a 3 minute video. The content of the video is scanned)

But nontheless, I uploaded it to show the proper way to avoid the swine flu by proper handwashing techniques. Now YouTube has comndemed thousands to death. :D
