Naturally, Burch was horrified by the officer’s concerning, copyright-minded reaction. “I really, really could not believe what was happening, just how quickly he had taken out his phone. And it wasn’t like he had…to load [the song],” Burch told Mashable of the incident. “His phone was pre-loaded to this. As soon as he saw the camera, he grabs his phone and presses maybe two buttons and Taylor Swift is playing…This person was ready for this.”
Considering the clip of the encounter ultimately found itself on the video-sharing platform, garnering more than 178,000 views since it was posted earlier this week, it seems the officers attempt to evade internet stardom via hiding behind Taylor Swift failed, due to a few holes – or, well, Blank Spaces – in his plan. As The Verge noted, while having copyrighted music playing in the background isn’t necessarily a violation of YouTube’s copyright policy, it can trigger the site’s sensors that automatically remove questionable content.
