Sorry for the irrelevant reply, but I'm trying to get some attention on this.
This youtuber got a fraudulent DMCA notice, and his counter-notice got automatically rejected. The person who sent the notice isn't associated with the devs, and is asking for a $100 ransom to get the channel reinstated. How could this be fixed?

Any youtube people on here can help? Or anyone else have any advice?
- themaninthedark 3y agoThat is not how the DMCA is supposed to work. If you send a counter-notice it is not supposed to be auto-rejected, it is supposed to go to court. This monster is created by Youtube, they are not using the DMCA process(as flawed and terrible as it is) but instead created something worse. The best way to get attention? Maybe sue Youtube?
