Youtube is going witch hunt after small channels that try to defend themselves.

Hey guys and gals :)

I had small youtube channel where i uploaded video games and some other random stuff. Had that account for over decade. 4 days ago i received strike from youtube concerning 1 video i had uploaded. Youtube notified me that my video was offensive, that it was taken down and that i received strike.

Strike was for level 1 of video game 'Name Removed'. That is dumb game made by nsm. So i was showing it off to public, because it exists so people might as well see it I asked youtube to return it, because that is just video game and that they are again doing same thing as they did with 'shirrako'.

They responded that they not going to do anything.After that i created post in reddit about youtube censoring small channels while letting bigger channels have same stuffs. Link to my reddit post is here: Link Removed

Yesterday i received another strike. Concerning same video game. Video game was uploaded by levels. Each level was own video, because levels are different executables. After receiving 2 strikes for same game it was clear that it was video game itself in whole that was giving me strikes, not some part in first video or something. After receiving email about second strike i removed all videos from channel and then couple hours later i get another notification that i have again received strike about same game. Strike for video i had removed couple hours ago.

They gave me 3rd strike for video that didn't even exist anymore. My videos were originally uploaded in 2012 and there wasn't any issues then. I can understand that i got one strike now that they are monitoring videos better and nowadays everything is offensive. But they continued giving strikes for same stuffs and last strike they gave was for thing that didn't exist anymore.

I contacted youtube about this and they said that they wont do anything and my channel will be terminated.So to me it seems that they took me down because even though i had small channel i tried to fight against unfair ways they treat small channels. And seems that they just went witch hunt after me to silent me. If you type 'Name Removed' in youtube search it will show dozens of videos because i had small channel i cant really fight alone against youtube so thats why im reaching to you.

Youtube being a private owned service can do what they want in that regard. I think even bigger Youtube channels have had some of their videos silence in the more unfair way.

@lunideth: A couple points here:

A) You spelled "censoring" wrong (the title of the removed Reddit title)

B) Youtube has a pretty high tolerance for stupid nonsense before they'll take something down on their own without a copyright claim from another channel, so I looked up the game to see why your innocent YT channel is being so unfairly singled out by "the man" and to absolutely no surprise I discovered that you left out the tiny detail that the game you are trying to post footage of is one of those neo-Nazi ethnic cleansing FPS ("NSM" in this context stands for National Socialist Movement for anyone who's not aware). Youtube takes a similar attitude to this kind of nonsense as they do flat earth videos, and just like those guys they feel it's all part a larger conspiracy to censor them and not Youtube trying to take responsibility for themselves by not being a platform for topics that they do not want to promote for obvious reasons.

Your account is now banned from here, btw. A new account trying to promote/draw attention to their Youtube channel is a bannable offense here even without the whole "neo-nazi ethnic cleansing" part.
