Those rules were written when you could find another service. Nowadays communication platforms are too centralised to be allowed to remove content at will. The other issue here is the person was banned for life from using YouTube, which is a far cry beyond having some of his content removed for not fitting the platform. With great power comes great responsibility. The banhammer is being wielded too sloppily and that is hurting people in real ways, because parts of the web are now of central importance to daily life. Private companies in other sectors that can similarly impact people's lives are regulated in what they can do to their customers.
