right now YouTube is taking away the verification badge from dozens if not hundreds of YouTube creators, some of which have millions of subscribers and have been making videos on YouTube for over 10 years pretty shitty for YouTube to do to the community

Please appeal so we can take a look! We know there's a lot to unpack w/ this change, but basically we're trying to fix the fact that our old system didn’t "verify” much except that a channel had 100k subs – we now want verification to ensure channel authenticity for viewers.

But you can absolutely "fix" that "fact" without mass de-verifying scores of channels that have already been verified. Moreover, de-verifying so many channels INCREASES the risk that impersonation will happen. None of your empty rationale is persuasive on this point.
