      Today a 2016 video of mine was TAKEN DOWN and a strike put on my account for "violating community guidelines". This video contains nothing against YouTube's community guidelines. Just people talking about how watching other people's lives through vlogs is kinda weird.pic.twitter.com/aIUtyrHVxP

      Ultimately YouTube can do whatever they want with their platform, but as someone who uses it to foster a community, it's terrifying that either The Algorithm or a confused human being can wield this sort of cold, indifferent power over what I've built.

      I just film myself eating breakfast in the morning, talking with coworkers at the office, and jogging in the evening. Maybe a drone shot here and there. It's frustrating that I end up targeted over the countless videos of hate speech, cruel pranks, and scams targeting children.

      At this point, I've submitted an appeal. I'll update if I hear back.

      It's been 374 hours with no response. I think YouTube and I have different ideas about what "very soon" means. In related news, my friend @kickthepj also had a benign video removed and a strike placed on his account.

      491 hours. "Our team will thoroughly review your appeal and contact you again very soon." 491 hours. "...very soon." 491 hours. "...very soon."

          I was emailed by someone at YouTube who said, in short, "So we heard that your channel got deleted, but we checked and your channel is still there. Have a nice day!" I think maybe they didn't actually read what the problem was...? 1,070 hours of this ridiculousness so far.

          In a somewhat anticlimactic end to this ordeal, we’ve discovered that, sometime in the last month, YouTube restored the video in question, and just never responded via email to let us know about it.

          Google is incredibly slow and inept at responding to issues. When they suspended our Google analytics account they could not provide an actual reason for why and took nearly 2 weeks to reinstate it. This was with a person on my team calling and trying to escalate every day.

          Compared to the death of the universe, I guess you could call 800 hours still "very soon".

          And this is one of the reasons why I try to avoid YouTube as much as possible. The richest and the biggest the platform, the less they care. It's as simple as that.
