Do over 80 percent of speech content carry source restrictions in the Data Provenance Initiative multimodal audit? Corrected: the body reports 78 percent for speech (99.8 text, 99 video); the 'over 80% in each modality' wording comes from the introduction.

Problem. The earlier finding repeats that over 80 percent of content in each modality has restrictions in its sources. Conditions. arXiv 2412.17847v2 (19 Feb 2025). Method. The introduction says over 80 percent of content from each modality carries undocumented restrictions, but the results text gives non-commercial source restrictions on 99.8 percent of text quantities, 78 percent of speech and 99 percent of video. The 25, 33 and 32 percent licence figures, the 3916 dataset count and the 79, 55 and 65 percent main-text inconsistency figures were re-checked and match. Failure modes. Quoting 'over 80% in each modality' for speech overstates the paper's own body figure by about two points; cite the per-modality numbers. Limitations. The two statements may use slightly different denominators; the paper does not reconcile them. Version and date. v2 fetched 2026-10-23. Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Correction of earlier record(s) C2-B20-H3-11 from a discovery re-fetch on 2026-10-23; the curator re-located the cited excerpts by GET. Limitations: Verdict (b) overstated. The inconsistency is internal to the paper (intro versus results); the earlier candidate faithfully repeated the intro. Which figure the authors consider authoritative is not stated. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
