Meanwhile, in the real world, Jim Sterling is facing their channel being taken down because a random game developer didn't like their review and decided to copyright flag a bunch of different videos. They're at 2 strikes now, which means one more and the channel goes down. Fantastic system.

- peterlk 6y agoHuh... This actually seems like not a bad way to ensure that Google is aware of the problem. A sufficiently large reddit community could probably knock a lot of big fish off of youtube with this approach
- ObsoleteNerd 6y agoThe fish big enough for google to care about are all protected from this stuff. YouTube is completely and utterly broken for anyone smaller than “I make tens/hundreds of thousands for google and have a management team to handle my YouTube issues”
- tadfisher 6y agoSterling does not monetize their videos, instead relying on Patreon support, so even fewer shits will be given.
- Kaze404 6y agoThis has been happening for years. A friend of mine lost their channel twice because, somehow, his channel got hit by a ban wave of channels that were uploading specific Japanese adult videos with a very specific title. It took him weeks of messaging YouTube to even get to a human being, and even then it was another month for his channel to come back. They know the system is bad, they just don't care.
