69 days ago, I woke up to find my 40K+ channel — Final Verdict — completely deleted. The reason? “Circumvention.” But here’s the thing: I’ve never had a channel terminated before. So I asked YouTube support which deleted channel I was supposedly “linked” to — the one I would

This Is Why YouTube’s Current Policies DON’T Work (and how to fix it) 👇 YouTube is currently running another massive termination wave, deleting thousands of channels for “spam,” “scam,” and “circumvention.” And here’s the worst part: YouTube doesn’t just delete a channel…

@TeamYouTube I’m asking again: please share the full details of the supposedly “linked channel.” To resolve a circumvention ban, creators must know the exact channel name and URL. You tell me to “fix” a previous termination, but refuse to reveal the channel you believe caused

@TeamYouTube I’m once again asking you to share the full details of the supposedly “linked" channel: the name, ID, and URL. Without this information, there is no way for me to resolve anything. You can’t ask creators to “fix” a termination while withholding the very channel you

Look. The problem isn’t automation. It’s the lack of transparency. And what’s even worse is that YouTube doesn't just delete channels. They immediately permanently ban the creators behind them. With the circumvention policy, even 1 automated mistake or AI hallucination becomes

YouTube just permanently BANNED me from their platform, even though I did nothing wrong. My channel had over 40k subscribers and 7 million views. Then one morning, I woke up and it was just… gone. The reason? “Circumvention.” But here’s the crazy part. I’ve never had another

UPDATE: - 72 hours since this tweet - 120k+ views, nearly 1,000 likes & 200 shares - Reached the trending page, with big channels & articles featuring my case - YouTube still hasn’t reached out - My channel still needs a real human review and reinstatement:

It’s been 72 days since my 40K+ channel Final Verdict was deleted for "circumvention", even though I’ve never had a channel terminated before. My initial post about this reached over 120K views, nearly 1,000 likes, and 200 shares. And yet… No. Acknowledgement. From.

Thank you all for the incredible support! After nearly 1,000 likes and 100K+ views, @TeamYouTube has finally responded. Their reply came almost 24 hours ago, and I’m still waiting for their DM to arrive, but hoping we can get this resolved soon 🙏 Also huge thanks to @XCatalunya

It’s now officially 24 hours since I posted this, and still, @TeamYouTube hasn’t reached out.

Thank you so much for the mention in your article! @XCatalunya It’s sad how many creators are waking up these days to find their channels gone, with no details, no explanation, and no way to speak to an actual human employee. These automated systems are destroying years of work

It’s almost 24 hours later, and my post has more than 75k views. And yet… No. Acknowledgement. From. YouTube. I see @TeamYouTube responding to tons of messages every minute… And yet my post with hundreds of likes, 100s of people tagging Team YouTube, and big channels

As an EU user, the Digital Services Act gives me the right to a clear and specific explanation for moderation decisions. So far, I’ve only had automated, generic replies and no transparency. I ask @TeamYouTube to provide a clear and specific explanation for my termination.

The only explanation I ever received was a generic reason. I was never told which channel or account my channel was supposedly linked to. Without that, I cannot understand or address the decision.
