> there is no attempt to curtail bad actors on that side of the table

Do you have evidence to back that up? According to YouTube's Help Center, they do revoke Content ID access from those who abuse the system[0].

How many "mistaken" claims will it take for (e.g.) Universal Music to have their ContentID access revoked? I posit that they would have to be VERY egregious to get kicked out of the system. Same thing for other larger corporations.

I'm not saying that Google won't kick small-time abusers out of the system, but the big players would have to do something really bad to get kicked out of the system.
