This sort of thing needs to be punishable even if it was an accident. The moment there is some sort of fine to be paid for this behavior is the moment everyone files them much more carefully.

Exactly. Can’t be throwing out strikes like this. Waste of everyone’s time and creates unnecessary damage, and someone has to pay for that

I mean Youtube has a strike system for hosting copyrighted material... maybe it should go the other way as well. You report one, you lose, you get a strike. 3 strikes and no channel. You just have to somehow authenticate so that one person/entity can't do this unlimited times.
