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.

Well, after reading through the "material", it seems, you only want already famous people to be verified. And since it seems that this change is affecting how you guys prioritize channels and how they reach their audience, old and new, it makes new creators like me, leery.

Even PewDiePie isn't famous enough to be verified anymore.

Yeah. They probably have some algorithm do it.
