Determination of copied content, including attribution
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- an input to receive a content object posted to a web-based service, for distribution by the web-based service to the public;
a hardware processing unit configured for;
determining fingerprint data from a received content object, and by reference to the determined fingerprint data, determining that the received content object includes content that at least potentially matches controlled content;
obtaining usage rule data relating to the controlled content, the usage rule data having earlier been established by an owner of the controlled content, the usage rule data comprising;
i) an owner-specified extent of copying between the received content object and the controlled content, and ii) an attribution requirement for received content;
determining an extent of copying between the received content object and the controlled content;
determining whether the received content object meets a minimum percentage of content; and
governing distribution of the content object based on the usage rule data including i) the owner-specified extent of copying between the received content object and the controlled content, and ii) the attribution requirement for received content, and on the determined extent of copying, when the received content object meets the minimum percentage of content; and
an interface through which different owners can specify different extent of copying requirements to govern distribution of their respective content.

Abstract
This disclosure relates, e.g., to governing distribution of content on a web-based service. One aspect of the disclosure relates to a system comprising various interfaces, e.g., for: i) receiving content posted to a web-based service, for distribution by the web-based service to the public, and ii) presenting for review one or more items of user-posted content hosted by the web-based service that are identified as a match with identified copyrighted content, and receiving, via an interface for use in confirming the match, information regarding the match, ii) distributing the received content from the web-based service along with an attribution associated with the identified copyrighted content. A great variety of other aspects, claims, features and arrangements are also detailed.

13. A system comprising:
-
means for receiving a content object posted to a web-based service, for re-distribution by the web-based service to the public; means for determining fingerprint data from a received content object; means for determining, by reference to determined fingerprint data, that the received content object includes content that at least partially matches controlled content; a first graphical user interface through which owner specified inputs can be received by said system, said first graphical user interface comprising a first interface, a second interface, a third interface, and a fourth interface, in which the first interface is configured to receive geographical requirements, the second interface is configured to receive restrictions on an amount of allowed duplication between the received content object and the controlled content, the third interface is configured to receive use restrictions, and the fourth interface is configured to receive an attribution requirement; means for determining an amount of duplication between the received content object and the controlled content; means for governing re-distribution of the content object based on;
i) a determined amount of duplication between the received content object and the controlled content, ii) owner specified geographical requirements, iii) owner specified restrictions on an amount of allowed duplication between the received content object and the controlled content, iv) owner specified use restrictions, and v) an owner specified attribution requirement; anda second graphical interface comprising a match interface, the match interface configured for presenting graphics corresponding to the received content object, and configured for receiving input for confirming a match, the second graphical interface comprising a content location interface configured for providing access to the received content object. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A system comprising:
-
an interface for receiving content posted to a web-based service, for distribution by the web-based service to the public; a hardware processing unit configured for fingerprinting received content, and by reference to the computed fingerprint data, identifying copyrighted content included in the received content; a first user interface configured for obtaining owner-specified extent of copying requirements, an owner-specified attribution requirement and owner-specified geographical requirements, all of which pertain to the identified copyrighted content; a hardware processing unit configured for controlling distribution of the received content from the web-based service, in accordance with the owner-specified extent of copying requirements, owner-specified geographical requirements, and a determined extent of copying between the received content and the identified copyrighted content; a second user interface configured for;
i) with use of imagery, presenting for review one or more items of user-posted content hosted by said web-based service that are identified as a match with the identified copyrighted content; and
ii) receiving, via the second user interface for use in confirming the match, information regarding the match; anda third interface for distributing the received content from the web-based service along with an attribution associated with the identified copyrighted content. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)

26. A system comprising:
-
means for receiving content posted by a user to a web-based service, for distribution by said web-based service to the public, the received content including copyrighted content for which copyright is held by a copyright owner; means for computing fingerprint data from the received content; means for detecting and identifying, by reference to computed fingerprint data, the copyrighted content included in the received content; means for determining a copy extent score between the received content and the copyrighted content; and a first user interface that enables the copyright owner to specify an attribution requirement and a copy extent score for the copyrighted content, in which different copyright owners can specify different copy extent scores for their respective content; and means for governing distribution of the received content to the public in accordance with whether the determined copy extent score exceeds the specified copy extent score, and if the received content meets a minimum percentage of content; and a second user interface for distributing the received content from the web-based service along with an attribution associated with the identified copyrighted content. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29, 30, 31)
