Tech Crunch Says:

"A source just tipped us on some interesting changes Google-owned YouTube has made that give its partners more control over the blocking of video content they upload to the service.

Basically, there are two new buttons in the interface for partners. One says ‘Block by Country’ and provides content partners with the ability to geo-block a single video rather than an entire account, an oft-requested feature that allows partners to restrict the geographical rights for specific videos.

The second button reads ‘Enable Auto Block outside Ownership’ and addresses a problem that YouTube partners have with duplicate videos that get uploaded to the service without their explicit consent. Until today, the process to claim ownership over duplicate videos and have them blocked by YouTube was long and cumbersome, and apparently the new button makes it easier for partners to automatically block duplicates with just one click."
