There are some problems with this idea you should be aware of. These are the ones I can see right away:
* YouTube gets the original, with the faces (It would be better to use your own tool that doesn't require uploading).
* People might confuse uploading with publishing and publish the wrong one.
* There might be metadata in the video that could identify people related to the video that isn't deleted. A further tool would be needed for that.
* Uploading video requires a login, and your IP address is no doubt logged, so the publisher of the video is always exposed, along with the computer or device used to upload.
