I understand this isn't a DMCA request, so quite a few legal remedies are unavailable for abusing the Youtube reporting system. But it seems like "tortious interference" would still apply here. Is there some reason it wouldn't?

I wish Youtube etc would blacklist requests by these companies, but am not optimistic. Curation seems like the path here, but it seems difficult. (See also the recent Kagi thread here, highlighting how being able to curate which sites appear on your search results is a big deal)

Taco Bell won the franchise war and is the only restaurant remaining.

Using "LLM scanning" for "Web3" companies sounds like tortious interference already.
