YouTube gets more and more frivolous with ContentID, bad content getting promoted while good stuff gets cease-and-desist letters.
I guess the current copyright enforcement system goes something like:
"You can't be too rich, or too evil!"
By the way, ignore the "Standard YouTube License" stuff, my work is copylefted, all wrongs reserved, unless it is legally impossible to claim it on certain videos. I tried changing the licenses to Creative Commons, but for some reason I can't.

I don't think I'll be able to reach them at this point.
Well, I got a claim from a company called Shopro, which, according to my searching, do hold a decent portion of Pokemon with them. According to this, I don't know if somebody was fucking with me or anything. But, my knowledge on all this copyright stuff runs rather thin, so my logic may be somewhat flawed. Maybe a user illegally flagged it or something. I dunno.
But I was gonna try and file a counter-claim, see if it does anything. Hopefully I get somewhere with it.
COICA passed congress. This law effectively can be abused to kill websites that ran like YouTube did in the glory days (before 2008). The post-2008 YT is immune, but the tradeoff is all this takedown and copyright trolls are free to do as they please, even if they themselves are doing so illegally (eg. Viacom, WMG, MyVideoRights).
