My experience with YouTube was different. Two or three times, up to around five years ago, I got an email from them stating I'd done something wrong — used protected music/content etc. — and that this notification wasn't a strike but I should contact them and explain why they were wrong to put a hold on the video and they'd withdraw the notice. I did so and they then responded that the email was erroneous, all good.
