YouTube is pretty strict when it comes to implanting is community guidelines for uploaded content. However, some well-known content creators on the platform are now complaining that YouTube has removed some of their cryptocurrency videos seemingly out of the blue.
One such content creator is YouTuber Chris Dunn. He is a crypto YouTuber with over 210,000 subscribers and around 7.5 million channel views, according to Cointelegraph.
“@YouTube just removed most of my crypto videos citing ‘harmful or dangerous content’ and ‘sale of regulated goods’... it's been 10 years of making videos, 200k+ subs, and 7M+ views. WTF are you guys doing @TeamYouTube?!” Dunn complained of his experience using his Twitter account in a post on December 23.
Dunn then shared a screenshot showing seven of his banned videos. Some of the titles of the banned videos include “The Future of Initial Coin Offerings,“ “Is Bitcoin Really Money?” and “50 Crypto Trading & Investing Lessons from the Past 5 Years.”
The screenshot also showed a brief description of why the videos are banned from YouTube. All seven videos are said to have “harmful or dangerous content” but Dunn has already made his appeal on the banned videos.
In a second screenshot, Dunn showed that there was a “strike” against his channel. This means that the YouTuber won’t be allowed to post or uploaded new content for one week.
A second strike carries an even bigger restriction as one won’t be allowed to post any content for two weeks. Meanwhile, a third strike within a thirty day period could mean the permanent deactivation and removal of the channel itself.
Apparently, Dunn wasn’t the only one affected by YouTube’s sudden ban. YouTuber Node Investor received a warning and notification telling it that one of the videos has been removed from the site. “Node Investor, your content violated YouTube’s Community Guidelines and has been removed.”
A perplexed Node Investor took to Twitter to question why a video posted two years ago was only removed now. “Merry Christmas to you also @YouTube,” Node Investor tweeted. “Apparently a video I posted two years ago on researching crypto’s is now illegal...Rules are changing.”
YouTube has not yet officially commented on the two cases at the moment.
