Police playing music while being filmed, seemingly to trigger copyright filters

I think #2 is probably too high for private citizens to risk needing to pay if their claims are reversed. Individuals can and do exercise DMCA notices for protected content that they personally own and if that route for reconciliation would be taken away and alternative would need to be provided.

There are some serious issues with DMCA abuse but I think that it'd be better to address the issues of abuse with a regulatory body that's specifically empowered to go after bad actors.

The core problem here is that the internet moves really really fast and is really really worthless so trying to protect owned content on it is extremely difficult.

As a musician I have a hard time imagining a case where an honest DMCA takedown could be reversed by someone listening to the same music I am and identifying something else.
