YouTube forces everyone, independent of local laws, to work under the US's fair use laws, they could at least be consistent and not care if some country has other laws on copyright. Which is what they do mostly. If Germany was the problem, they'd make the upload inaccessible in Germany and leave it untouched for everyone else. Content-ID marking it globally is clearly an issue on YouTube's end |

No they don't. You must work under the fair use laws of every territory the content is available in.
The US has a significantly wider fair use law than almost any other country on Earth.

They do - it is extremely common for items to be blocked to Japan especially, as Japan has very tight fair use provisions in particular.
