Hey @TeamYouTube, PLEASE tell me that @h3h3productions was wrong in saying that if a creator has to file a counter DMCA claim, the personal information provided (address, phone #, etc) is sent directly to the party that filed the strike. What's the truth here?pic.twitter.com/QLZVv56mPV

Unfortunately this is a requirement of US DMCA law and YouTube can't really do anything about it. Copyright law definitely needs updating.

I can even understand that. I just wish YouTube's Counter-DMCA form made it more clear that the claimant received that info, as a courtesy to the user filling out the form.

That has been an issue for years now for small content creators like us. But I don’t think it wil ever change since when you counter a DMCA notification you open a legal case (in your name) which is under the US law. The law would have to change for youtube to change this.

What I can say though is that your infos is sent to the person thah sent the strike. The following one then has to prove under 10 days (usually 14) to Youtube that he sued you to keep the strike maintained. If he doesn’t, the strike will be removed

Small content creators are badly affected by this since they have no protection. Its not rare that they get their channel terminated because of fake strikes It’s very easy for malicious people to strike with a false identity. In under 3 days you can manage to take a channel down
