> Could you act as your own copyright troll?

Yes! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mz14Ul-r63w

> That is, what happens when you file copyright claims against your own works from a second account?

You split half and half with the copyfraudster. If you make more sockpuppets to copystrike yourself, you get proportionally more and deprive the cf, e.g. 4 puppets vs 1 cf splits 80%/20%.

> Also, how many TOS and laws would this violate?

lolwhocares, I'm with emplemon - no respect for broken tos and laws

I still don't get why large holders aren't getting hit? If you were to file takedowns on Disney's misuse of mythology, or whatever, wouldn't you get 30 days of their income while letting their rebuttal expire?

Disney, other film studios, large record labels and distributers, etc, have the ability to place their content directly into YouTube's ContentID system so a copyright claim will generally be denied immediately by one of youtube's bots.

You'll get thrown in jail for fraud.

There are a different set of laws for the wealthy, including wealthy corporations.

Someone made a video about doing this:
