#2Until there is a financial penalty for wrongful use of the DMCA this type of thing will continue.
They use robots to create reports (maybe not in this case) because for them there is simply zero downside.
That downside needs to exist.

#4There is no reason this kind of glitch should even be happening. There should be some kind of date attribute that gets attached to the ContentID data that Fox submits, and YouTube should reject takedowns for which that date is later than the date the video in question was uploaded. This is just ridiculous.

Original clip was uploaded 8 years before Fox published their version.
