Right but Bloomberg only did it once, right? Or are they talking about "in general"?

Why is this being downvoted? I'm genuinely asking questions πŸ˜‚.

You can easily get three strikes in a few moments with frivolous takedown. Then you are deleted and can only hope to beg youtube to reinstate you on twitter.

That's fucking insane. I can only imagine how scary it is for those who make YouTube their full-time job. :/

Play in someone else's walled garden, and they may kick you out and not let you back in. It's not as if people haven't been warning against this since the beginning of youtube.

That's why I never made a career out of it. I just never like the idea of putting my whole life in YouTube's hands. I do have a small channel that I post to whenever I feel like and never really cared for it much. Sometimes, I don't post for a couple of years.

So what you're basically saying is that any YouTube channel since the dawn of the DMCA has been permanently in the status of "Our Channel Could Be Deleted". That's... not exactly news is it? What makes the GamersNexus case special?

What's different is they are being targeted.

It's not clickbait. The 3 strikes is general, so even if Bloomberg comes back and says it was an accident or unsubstantiated, gn still takes the hit and is that much closer to being deleted. They could very easily make another 2 or cause a lot more issues leading to the deletion of his account. An considering they don't want to talk to him at all, and even making this video will likely really piss them off, it absolutely does lead to the possibility that he has his account deleted

That's not true. It has to be 3 strikes with merit, so rejected or reverted ones don't count, and they expire after 90 days too.

Ah I didn't know that, so I appreciate the correction. In that case itsa little more click baity... But still good to know if you follow his channel. Thank you!
