YouTube pledges to protect copyrights in Japan
Afp, Tokyo
Popular video-sharing website YouTube has agreed to take measures against copyright infringement in Japan but an industry group here said Wednesday it was not entirely satisfied. The Japan Society for Rights of Authors, Composers and Publishers had filed a complaint with YouTube, which was bought in October by Internet giant Google. In response, YouTube Chief Executive Chad Hurley and Chief Technical Officer Steve Chen said they were ready to post a notice in Japanese on its website warning that users should not upload copyrighted content, the Japanese media group said.
