This caught my eye as more than a typo and likely an eggcorn.

While the site has remedied the headline (now “Google To Improve YouTube Copyright Protection”), the URL is more difficult to modify and continues to confirm the sighting:

This has been suggested a couple of times before. Here’s a URL that leads to both: http://eggcorns.lascribe.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=783
