Youtube has always been lax at taking down black and white movies and older European movies (like 60s and 70s stuff)
I’m guessing that’s because studios have to submit material for content ID and don’t care or don’t have the files for older stuff, but I’ve been seeing HD videos, both old and newish (post 2000) so it’s starting to look like their content ID system isn’t working as well as it used to

"Have to submit material for content id"
That is as if banks tell note banks to submit sample bank notes, or they will not reject counterfeit bank notes.
