That is also true for patent trolls, but that doesn't stop them.

In the case of youtube the problem is that the strike is done by an automated system, and getting it fixed is a really frustrating experience because you can't talk to a human.

For those who rely on youtube for their income, these copyright strikes are a major concern and source of anxiety.

I cannot agree. The fault is on those who send fake takedown requests, not on Youtube. They should repay the profit that could be lost because of the takedown.
