Sure. "All the time" across Youtube's userbase of people who can make enough social media noise that we hear about it (so probably an order of magnitude more often than all the cases we hear about, but still very rarely for any one individual business or person.
If a client or project's content is mainly intended to be viewed and/or discoverable via the project website, I'm happy enough to have a plan along the lines of "We'll publish/host the video on Youtube (under an account that's exclusively for it and definitely not in any way linkable to any important Adworfds, gSuite, or Android dev accounts), and if the shit hits that fan there and they shut it down, we'll make sure we can reupload the videos to Vimeo or DACast or S3/Cloudfront or wherever, and just flip the video.example.com CNAME to match."
If you're relying on Youtube/Vimeo/Instagram/whatever for _discovery_, then you've got a totally different problem. (And, as far as I can tell, one without any good mitigation strategy. If you build all your brandvalue in a youTube channel, you're totally at the mercy of shitty cotent monitoring algorithms, automated copyright or DMCA takedowns, and 4Chan brigade attacks...)
