This 2018 interview with Emily Richards (aka #MadameSnowflake), highlights a range of issues #ccMixter have had with CC-license compliance on YouTub. Things I hadn't thought of too, like how to detect posting other people's CC music as if you're the creator;

Makes me wonder how all this could be handled on PeerTube servers, and other media hosts in the fediverse, to make the experience better for both artists and hosts.

I imagine the way this usually works is that startups doing anything related to media-sharing get approached by the RIAA. To avoid getting Napstered, they add whatever features demanded by the corporate music plantation owners they represent. Then, maybe, try to figure out how to apply those to work under CC licenses.

As with so many things, the fediverse is a chance to tip this corporatist logic on its head. Start with serving the needs of artists using CC licenses, and go from there.
