Yep! It isn't very hard to get someone punished for abusing the system if you have the resources.

YouTube did it a few years ago [1] to a popular creator in the MineCraft community who was threatening creator's with Community Guideline Strikes in order to extort them for money.

The more I hear about 'popular creators' or 'influencers' the more it seems like a popular career for people with character flaws that can't be easily hidden in face-to-face business environments.
