No control over video content at Google?

It looks as though the Google video search has yielded some copyright violations. Evidently there's been many movies and TV shows that should not be there that have been uploaded. It looks as though some of those have been removed. But the question remains, how is Google going to police this so copyright violations don't occur again? This is the big problem with all sorts of material that is going to be coming online including video, copyrighted text, you name it. Because searches so effective, people will be demanding this kind of thing in the future. So the need for digital property rights is going to be on the increase. Along with security, this will be one of the necessities in the future. Microsoft has gone a long way with digital rights management but there needs to be more done to make sure that this can't be done. I don't know how anybody's going to get this done because people can make video into almost any format that would not be trackable. Will they just have to come down on people with legal action? Is that the only way to get this done? Meanwhile, video on the Internet will continue to be a problem as long as there are people willing to pirate content. It's nobody's fault, and it's certainly not Google's, it's just the low state of people's morals.
