Additional clarification:
No one lost a verification badge today–If you received an email that your channel will no longer be verified, this was just an advanced notice & you can appeal
The checkmark has never appeared on YouTube mobile channel pages (this will be added soon)https://twitter.com/TeamYouTube/status/1174735005215420416 …
You're so out of touch, it's pathetic. Yeah, get rid of the verification badge, but fir those who don't need it. Morgz, Enus Bater, N&A Productions, JayStation, etc. These are the people you need to target, not everyone else.
