Time for my periodic public callout of @UMG, who claimed this video, specifically the song starting at 13:43, an extremely clear-cut example of fair use, as the discussion is the lyrics of the claimed song. There's subtitles and everything.https://youtu.be/xU1ffHa47YY?t=823 …
If this is found to be fair use, can UMG be held liable for all court costs and lost revenue/damages? And if so, could this lead to a class action suit if it systematic bad claims? Or does UMG basically not have to consider fair use when making claims?

You *can* get penalized for clear abuse. (And in fact some using DMCA procedures have been penalized for not considering fair use when claiming infringement). That said, it’s not tremendously common.
