A policy preventing Copyright owners from making $ on manual claims for:
Short song clips (ex: 5 sec of a song)
Unintentional audio (ex:
from passing cars)
Claimants can still block monetization or the video itself, but timestamps help you edit out the claim.

It's actually a combination of both. Firstly, all of my uses fall under fair use, so for my sort of commentary and criticism use of short clips is allowed. 2nd, some of the claims are on short clips with brief sound effects and music, which is being claimed by copyright trolls.

(1/2) For the 1st group, using any amount of content you don't own (even a few seconds) puts you at risk for a claim/takedown. You have the right to argue Fair Use, but only courts (not YouTube) can decide if it's protected under Fair Use. More info here: https://yt.be/help/claims-FAQ
