Report Fraudulent/Bootleg Releases

Report Fraudulent/Bootleg Releases

I have noticed over the past couple years that there have been more and more bad actors ripping music from YouTube and putting them on music platforms. Sadly, there is no way for users to report these releases, and record labels are often slow to respond to these bootleg releases. They generally hurt the artist as the quality of the release is usually low. There should be a report buttons for users to report suspicious uploads so that users can help protect their favorite artists.

man I feel you.. it's a pain. we can't even do anything, because the right holders are almost impossible to get in contact. and Spotify's bot is too bad at detecting them... we try to report to other organs but it takes al life for them to do anything... it's honestly sad. as an artist, I hate these bootleggers. we all try to help
