How did these strikes happen?

[James98s1]

I had a video on private for months and it never matched any content ID, then 2 weeks ago a copyright strike was put on it. So my first question is how did a copyright holder review the video to confirm copyrighted content was indeed in the video if it was on private?

I filed a counter notification after I got the strike and the video was restored 15 days later, then within minutes of it being restored and still on private it received another copyright strike (from the same big corporation as the first strike) Under the copyright details it says "Manually detected" how did someone manually detect a private video and then manually detect it again 2 weeks later 1 minute after its restored?

Is there a limit to the number of times a company can strike the same video? Is my video going to remain perpetually down because of these automated chain strikes? I thought the supposed content owner was required to file a lawsuit to keep a video down after a strike is removed via counter notification? I didn't know they could re-file the same strike 1 minute after the video is restored.

Again, it has nothing to do with content ID, the video is 3 minutes long and is a top 10 of sorts with commentary providing information and review of the short clips used.

Videos can get copyrighted whether they're public or not.

If you appealed a Content ID claim on the private video then the claimant will be able to review and watch your video.

Content owners can view and takedown private matching videos in their CMS, although they are unable to view the video at that point.

Well I emailed copyright@youtube.com .I was 100% they dont actually read the emails they get through there from past experience, but they actually removed the strike. Thats the first time I've had a strike removed without waiting the mandatory 15 days after filing a counter notice.

"We have determined that the copyright takedown request we received for these URLs was invalid. Your copyright strike has been resolved."

Depends on detection. If it said it was "manual detection" then it was done by someone that has access to it. If it was content ID then probably the YouTube just updated the content ID database and that's why it wasn't detected before. Since it was private its probably the second one.
