I am wondering, Why is the Alphabet boards and Google employees haven't been prosecuted for the copyright infringement yet? Denying the copyright is an copyright infringement. They knew he is the original author because he and whoever that person living in Saudi Arabia both use YouTube and they knew he is the one who uploaded it first.
This issues happens because YouTube is not responsible for what they did.
Also, DMCA cause more harm than good. I really don't understand the law system in US.
But they DO know about it, the thing is that as long as they only react (manually) once these cases reach the news, it will never really generate too much negative PR. It's been that loop for a years now.
So in the end nobody at Google really cares and the sentiment you hear from people working there sums up to "Eh, it's hard to do, these things are just regrettable oopsies".
I keep hearing about this more and more, so the problem seems to be accelerating. Rick Beato took YouTube to court for it and won. He made several videos throughout the process he went through. Seems exactly as exasperating as Aquachigger's.
