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 …
"badge or no badge..." That does not sound assuring at all. Please stop. That makes it soind like you are acknowledging people will lose it, when they should have it. Don't brush it off, this is lazy.
