When we fingerprint video my plan is that the fingerprint software will run locally on your machine and upload a profile to the database for use by the API offered to tube sites.
However it's early days, as people come on board they may bring other ideas to the table, The aim will be to form an independent entity to run this whole operation where the costs are largely born by the tubes to serve the member content rights holders who want to protect their content from theft.

Who will fund the development costs?
For sure this API will be in fact an API holding a set of APIs since everyone using different tech, frameworks and DB models.
I think the most simple to do is ask any Tube owners to produce a list of their clips who have a bigger file size as clips (2-5 minutes) and which is user generated.
Try to find matches / patterns of the uploaders, check out what sites they promote, try to get their affiliate IDs at various programs and exchange the data (don't know if this is legal) and deactivate their accounts or sue them.
Fingerprinting and tagging mechanisms to match vids is probably also possible but that will be a hell of a job and for sure you need all tube owners like Manwin to be cooperative in this process.
