False copyright claiming controversy

This is a choreography of YouTube, where copyright claims are made on videos, but are not related or affiliated with any third party company (like Nintendo and Viacom for example). Any user (who is not affiliated with a third-party or major brand company) is to refrain from making any sort of copyright claim, even if the video, regardless of its length, aspect ratio, and quality, does not match the claimant's existing content.

NintendoGamingHD
In August 2016, NintendoGamingHD made copyright claims on videos owned by VideoGamePhenom, in which were all false. NintendoGamingHD was blocked by VideoGamePhenom due to posting personal information. Afterwards, the latter created an account that impersonated VideoGamePhenom, pretending to pertain that the account was hacked. The owner of NintendoGamingHD did not go quietly since getting blocked, and decided to retaliate by making copyright claims. }VideoGamePhenom eventually shut down its channel in March 2017, stating that it wanted to train for a while and wait out until the perpetrator was captured by legal authorities.

On March 5, 2019, NintendoGamingHD returned after an undisclosed hiatus, attacking VideoGamePhenom again with false copyright claims, leading to the shutdown of the channel.

VideoGameCollectionHD
In May 2018, VideoGamePhenom started making a comeback, but still, the false copyright claims were still standing in the way. VideoGamePhenom was terminated after a user known as VideoGameCollectionHD made the claims. Shortly after, VideoGamePhenom made another account, but in January 2019, its comeback was foiled yet again as more fraudulent claims were made by VideoGameCollectionHD.
