Why do you steal videos?

Good luck with YT giving you a strike or banning you outright.

Well, the best you can hope for is a few monetization checks, but you won't be able to fight the copyright strikes for obvious reasons so if I were you I'd create a plan B.

I will strike them back then because I don't even have a YouTube channel.

In the past, about anyone could claim the revenue. It has been an entire business. Making money from false claims. It got to the point that the big G took someone to court to make an example of them. People were claiming lesser-known songs, for instance, then copyright striking 1,000's of videos. I heard it being in the tune of $100,000's at times.
Are you talking about something like uploading TikToks without any copyright music? If it's along those lines, or something similar, I'd technically say no. But whenever I did something like that, I had a general topic and did all the research and compilation creation on my own. A lot of those videos have been seen by regular TikToker's or whichever niche you'd be targeting. So I tried finding the new hot stuff. Or doing YT to MP4 from existing compilations and then editing the videos out into a brand new creation.
If it's text to speech, etc., you could try changing the image/video size/add mirroring/change the voice. It's all about changing how the AI picks up on the video (visual strikes). The AI scans the video for pixel placement. So if you shrink the video, mirror it, add a spinning globe, etc. The AI thinks it's a different image. For audio, you can splice, so it's not all consecutive, or add an audio overlay.
Bottom line, from the sounds of it, you probably wouldn't get a demonetized. A lot of that happens within the first few minutes of the video being uploaded when the AI initially crawls it. From the perspective of the user experience, I'd try to make something original. Originality will help with hitting the algorithms.
