Please @TeamYouTube I can’t seem to make cuts or blur to an age-restricted video. Google Gemini advises I can seek special permission to make changes to a particular video. How do I do this please? This is the video: youtu.be/ii8detjZJ1Q?si…

@INSTINCTIVEWORL I am in the same boat, utterly crushed. My channel was first demonetised in April, then cleared by human review. But then demonetised again four weeks later.

Day 1-2. Overnight it seems I instantly lost my source of income and overall livelihood and it’s extremely gut wrenching. I would REALLY want an explanation, and just some direction to why this happened to me. There are SO many other creators that do the exact same thing I do and yet why am I targeted? And when did I ever target family audiences? Or mislead them into my content. Please can I get a human review and a clear reason why this happened to me. This is all I have. @TeamYouTube @YouTube

@TeamYouTube Please I am working through my videos with the help of Google Gemini. I am please asking for some human review, and human help, here. My channel was cleared by human review in April but then demonetized again several weeks later.

I’m going through a really difficult time after the second demonetization on my channel with no warning and no human support to resolve it. The lack of transparency and being ignored is taking a massive toll on my mental health. How do you keep going @TeamYouTube

3/3 Dear @TeamYouTube I understand the AI scans for visual imagery but we would really need a human to understand that this is appropriate birth footage and should not be censored from a legitimate platform. Our birth story was even covered on national TV and The Australian.

2/3 Dear @TeamYouTube But would I also have to edit out the scene where he is literally being lifted from my womb? This was very rare to be allowed to film in an Australian hospital and not allowing footage like this on YouTube would seem unreasonable.

1/3 Dear @TeamYouTube My channel was demonetized for encouraging unwanted attention to minors but cleared by human review. Now it is demonetized again. I have medical footage of my son's birth. I am editing out sensitive footage such as this.

Dear @TeamYouTube To demonetize an active channel for having early baby vlogging after our world-record breaking 33 rounds of IVF that was covered on national TV is just cruel and unreasonable. A human review cleared our channel in April before it was demonetized again.

@TeamYouTube We’re facing persistent demonetisation issues despite our entire channel having been cleared by human review in April. This video serves as an example of our quality—could you please investigate why our channel is still being flagged? youtu.be/IjWeDTICEg0?si…

@VXKAWAD @TeamYouTube I’m so happy for you 😊💪

After 9 months of being told the appeals were exhausted, that a human reviewer had already upheld the decision, and after reaching out to @TeamYouTube on X without getting a useful response... Also losing count of how many conversations I had with YouTube. it finally happened. A 1-hour chat with YouTube Support and an escalation to a manager named Candy: my wrongly terminated 20-subscriber channel has officially been reinstated. I never thought I'd fight harder for a 20-subscriber channel than for channels with hundreds of thousands of subscribers, but here we are. A huge thank you to Candy for taking the time to listen and help. Now that the channel is back, hopefully my Silver Creator Award eligibility can finally be reviewed again. Persistence always pays off. 🎉

Dear @TeamYouTube I am currently unable to save blur edits on my video documenting a caesarean section. Given the nature of this content, I would appreciate clarification on the relevant policies to ensure compliance. Thank you.

@TeamYouTube Checking in again on my channel’s monetisation status. We were cleared by human review in April, only to be demonetised again shortly after. We have since implemented changes to the channel. Please investigate. youtu.be/LAPKdRVbd_4?si…

Hey @TeamYouTube, following up on our case. Could a human please review this medical documentary? I realised it also has my newborn, but is educational, high-effort on Caesarean sections, not inappropriate content. This is causing me immense stress: youtu.be/ii8detjZJ1Q?si…

@Political1255 @mariaiscool29 @TeamYouTube @TeamYouTube Yes we need to speak up, and yes I was demonetized in April then remonetized again after a human review, and then last Thursday demonetized again. Absolute nightmare and a kick in the guts after six years of building a quality channel: @suvisjournalism?si=XrPRuWoQH0oLc6oE" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@suvisjournali…

@TeamYouTube deleted my account without providing a clear explanation, even though I did not knowingly violate any policies. This is what happens when a platform dominates the market and faces little meaningful competition—users are left powerless while decisions are made with little transparency or accountability. If you've had your account suspended, terminated, or restricted without a proper explanation, comment below and tag @TeamYouTube. The more people speak up, the harder it is to ignore these issues. Users deserve fair treatment, transparency, and real human reviews—not unexplained account removals and silence. #YouTube #TeamYouTube #YouTubeCreators #CreatorCommunity #ContentCreators #YouTubeSupport #AccountTermination #BannedAccount

YouTube don't care about small creators. The screenshot is mine, same channel. It feels like they give you a glimpse of what could have been and then take it all away. When a small creator gets terminated or demonetized, there is very little they can do. Appeals are rejected quickly, support is extremely limited, and most responses feel automated in any place you'd try to write. Today, @TeamYouTube told me on X that they would send me a DM. Just one minute later, they replied saying that the decision still stands. It doesn't feel like anyone actually reviewed anything. Visibility seems to matter. I've seen larger creators get issues resolved the same day, while smaller creators struggle to get a real human review. If you're currently fighting a wrongful termination or demonetization, I genuinely hope you get your channel back. Unfortunately, that hasn't been my experience. I hope more large creators speak up about these issues and help smaller creators get their voices heard. @MrBeast @RyanTrahan @sssniperwolf @ishowspeedsui

@mrgrinless I’m so happy for you 💪 Please can you keep speaking up about other creators caught up in this hell 🙏

Guys, things just got weird. No email, no notification. I literally just logged into my Studio and I am back into YPP!!! 🎉 Been a long 45 days! #Remonetized

@TeamYouTube Thank you honestly for your care x :)

@suvimahonen We've replied to your DM with more info

@TeamYouTube My entire channel was demonetized for attracting unwanted attention to minors. Our son's birth after 33 rounds of IVF was covered by national media. I've deleted all birth clips except one medical essential newborn care video. Please review. youtu.be/oNOD4IqyXWk?si…

@TeamYouTube Being demonetized feels like a mockery of our entire portfolio. We pour immense effort into capturing important community stories—like our ANZAC Day tribute—only to be dismissed. This work matters. youtu.be/eyIcm15BfV0?si… @YouTubeInsider @YouTube

@stevenyjsong Congratulation Steven 😀😎💪 I sent you a quick DM if you have time 😊🙏

New channel heatin up 🔥

Dear @TeamYouTube, my channel was demonetised for the 2nd time in 2 months despite passing a manual review. I’ve posted a video explaining my situation. I’m proactively auditing/deleting content and asking for a manual review to bypass the 90-day wait. Please help.
