I don’t understand how perjury applies here.

The DMCA has a (de facto toothless) perjury clause for knowingly submitting a takedown for content that doesn’t violate the copyright of the claimant. That doesn’t apply to YouTube claims that are handled via their internal tools outside of the DMCA process.

>de facto toothless

On YouTube, it appears to work just fine on other sites like GitHub.

When has a corporation been punished for perjury for false DMCA takedown notices on Github?

If you make a false copyright infringemenet claim, you commit perjury.
