Okay, but they also found that the allegedly "terminated" Cornell University Library account seems to be… not terminated. The point of the Google search is to find accounts corroborating the claim that it actually had been.

- endisneigh 4y agoWhy shouldn't there be doubt on the post given that there's no indication it ever happened? People just believing whatever they read on the internet is the reason why such rampant misinformation is spreading. YouTube is a distributed system - many parts are eventually consistent. It's very likely they loaded the page, saw some error and made the blog post. It doesn't mean anything was ever deleted.
