Another Dive

YouTube erased my entire channel overnight. I made documentaries. That’s it! No spam, No scams! I’m trying to get it back, but I need you to see this video. Please watch and share. Thank you. @TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators @endermanch @DeepHumor @calebgoesviral @niallniallyt @Rahimkhan_id @niokanal @3mvee @FinalVerdictYT @Katarsis2008 @SmileySmilik @SonhoMobile @ccgs2014 @DanielTChirwa @mws @noahmorris @PumpTheOG @FefeDemeny @TaylorLorenz @Fascinatorfacts

@XStrangeHistory 100% accurate. They’ve basically given up on human appeal reviews, it’s all automated. I just don’t get why they’d take this route, deleting good creators who bring value and attention to the platform. I guess they think they already have enough.

Attention YouTubers who have been Demonetized or Deleted on YouTube. YOU WILL NEVER communicate with a HUMAN REVIEWER. Yes, I know you asked for one. Yes, I know the DMS and emails look real. Yes, I know you saw screenshots from others where the communications were "personalized" by talking about the value of their content, etc. YouTube is slammed with APPEALS from around the world. They have probably less than 200 people dedicated to stuff like this. If you think one of them is actually watching your appeal video and reading your pleas for help, you are either naive or retarded, and you're probably not retarded. Sorry to say you are not special. You will not be the exception. I know you want to feel that way, but it's crazy to do so. It's AI. You are communicating with AI. You need to accept this. No humans at YouTube care about you, or me, or anyone else. They don't care that YouTube is your livelihood. Don't take it personally. @YouTube @TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators

@MindlessPixels4 @TeamYouTube Congrats! 👏👏👏

@anotherdive @TeamYouTube Thank you ❤️ for your support. My channel has been remonetized today.

Since my channel got demonetized my mental health has been getting worse. I’m really confused and don’t know what to do. I have financial responsibilities at home and now I’m not earning anything. My sleep schedule is completely disturbed and even my physical health is getting worse. In these 37 days I’ve lost around 2 kg of weight. For the past 37 days I’ve been constantly tweeting and trying to get help but all I receive are copy-paste bot replies with no clear explanation. I’m just asking for a fair human review. Please clearly tell me what exactly is wrong with my channel so I can fix it. @TeamYouTube @YouTube @nealmohan @YouTubeCreators @YouTubeIndia @YouTubeGaming When I look at my niche many bigger creators are doing similar content and are still monetized even uploading 5-10 videos a day without any issue. That’s why I’m confused about what the actual problem is in my case. One of my friends even deleted more than 100 videos and still didn’t get monetized again. If the exact problem isn’t explained how are we supposed to fix it? That’s my concern as well if you don’t clearly tell me what the issue is even after 90 days I won’t know if I’ve actually fixed the real problem or not. I might feel like I’ve done everything right but the main issue could still be unknown.

169 days has passed. @TeamYouTube take another look at my channel. I did nothing wrong.

I’ve been demonetized since December 23, 2025. Since that day, I’ve watched countless creators fight for their channels. Tagging each other. Supporting each other. Refusing to stay silent. Some were reinstated. But many more got tired… and gave up. And that’s the saddest part. One thing that really stands out — @NpcUniverse got both of his channels reinstated, yet he’s still speaking up for other creators who are struggling. Meanwhile, many of us are still waiting. Still unheard. Still asking for a fair review. I truly hope YouTube can be fair and genuinely help us get our channels back. @TeamYouTube this isn’t just about one channel anymore. Creators are losing hope. Please help us.

@TeamYouTube Ok thanks. Now let’s get back to wrongful terminations. What have you done about it besides ignoring us?

This is fixed! Live Chat and Super Chat messages are officially back in action. Thanks to all who let us know about this issue!

Dear @TeamYouTube @YouTube @YouTubeCreators @YouTubeGaming @YouTubeIndia @YouTubeInsider @nealmohan two of my youtube channels have been wrongfully terminated by your shitty AI program and i haven't been able to summit an appeal because you didn't send my my URL. @Dexerto

👉This the 4th video that i'm sharing with you: I am uploading parts of my YouTube videos for everyone to see. For 127 days, YouTube has kept my channel terminated under the spam policy. I made only 15 videos over 2 and a half years. Uploads were often months apart because I wanted to make them the best I could. This was my dream and my job. I didn't violate any of the rules. YouTube took it away by mistake and I want to continue fighting to get it back. I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me with your engagement. Thank you. @TeamYouTube please take a look into this. 👇 This is or better said was a video about Dick Cheney, titled: “The Vice President who actually ran America” (Full length of the video in YT: 14:42)

👉This the 3rd video that i'm sharing with you: I am uploading parts of my YouTube videos for everyone to see. For 126 days, YouTube has kept my channel terminated under the spam policy.

@YouTubeCreators 3 am: anxiety from my channel being terminated. 4 am: still thinking about it. 5 am: still there. it doesn’t stop during the day either. Over and over again. never stopping!

3 am: sleep. also 3 am: what if i made a video about...

👉I am going to upload parts of my videos for everyone to see. For 124 days, YouTube has kept my channel terminated under the spam policy. I made only 15 videos over 2 and a half years. Uploads were often months apart because I wanted to make them the best I could. This was my dream and my job. YouTube took it away by mistake and I want to continue fighting to get it back.

At this point I think @TeamYouTube has silenced me so they don't get my tweets. YouTube Ai is termination channels left n right and YouTube support is completely useless. Today is Day 136 and All my videos are live on website to prove this channel is not spam.

⚠️ Attention creators!!! 🚫 Shock & devastation! ‼️The mass wave of AI bans is destroying creators’ lives – channels, if restored, come back with shadowbans and almost no earnings, creators lose their entire creative work and finances, and face serious mental and health problems due to this utter injustice and total lack of transparency. As a woman and single mom, I feel cheated and robbed by Google/YouTube. My hard-earned income, the security of our family, and my son’s future have been completely ignored. My story breaks my heart every day: An unjust ban took everything from me. After months of appeals, my channel and monetization were finally restored… but my earnings from June 2025 (~$4,870 USD / 20,000 PLN) are still withheld after 8 months. YouTube claims: “sent to advertisers,” “wait 50 days,” “apply again” – but they provide no evidence, invoices, or documentation. Shadowban destroyed my reach – from my main (and only) source of income, I dropped to a few cents per month. @YouTube @TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators ‼️ This was my only source of livelihood. I ran a registered business, working 12-hour days: editing, video processing, sourcing materials – all of it wiped out. YouTube repeatedly refused to cooperate, refused to provide explanations, and blocked all meaningful discussion. Then they claim I didn’t appeal successfully – despite months of denial of collaboration and evidence. Please – someone with a real name and a heart – check my case and release my earnings. I beg for simple justice. 🙏 #YouTubeScam #WithheldEarnings #CreatorRights #SingleMom #Shadowban #AIAbuse #FairPay #YouTubeBanWave

Day 109 of trying to get my channel back. @TeamYouTube please review my channel by a human being as i am sure you've made a mistake.

@CJ53092479 @TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators @endermanch @DeepHumor @calebgoesviral Nope. It's been over 3 and a half months.

@anotherdive @TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators @endermanch @DeepHumor @calebgoesviral Any updates?! Did you get it back?

I’ve been terminated on YouTube since December 4, 2025. I’ve been making videos since 2006, all original content with no AI because back in the day you had to be original. I submitted an appeal and even talked to support, but my appeal was instantly denied within 10 minutes and the support team didn’t even know what was happening. They were super dismissive and told me a real human had reviewed my channel, the same type of human who age-restricted someone else’s channel just for laughing. It’s fine for mistakes to happen, but the fact that over 12 million channels were terminated between January and September is really scary. I had uploaded 9 videos that day, none of which were spam or involved selling anything. I just want a fair review of all my videos to show that it is all original content. I’m not breaking any rules and why would I risk losing my channel after being on YouTube for so long. It’s crazy that someone can terminate a channel and all you get is the copy and paste response sorry about that. @TeamYouTube you need to do better. I want a real review, not someone just checking my DM and saying hey we already checked. They don’t even tell you directly why your channel was terminated. Mostly I feel bad for all the people who come here every day trying to get their channels back. You need a new system because this AI stuff is not working.

@TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators I know I've said this multiple times but I still need to get this out regardless if people will see it or not and I still demand an answer from YouTube because you continue to ignore me even months later. It has been 3 months since my channel has been falsely terminated and I have kept trying to get their attention but YouTube continues to ignore me but I think I know the real reason my channel might have gotten terminated. On June 30, 2025, I uploaded a video that has all of the shutdowns from January to June of 2025. The video would soon become my most viewed I made with it getting over 50k views and getting me to over 1,000 subscribers and it would also let me qualify the partnership program but however that would be shortlived. On September I would recieve a manual copyright claim for my video which was for the song Midnight City by M83 despite there being commentary over the song and it was used as a final goodbye for the French channel C8 and this would fall under fair use but to my surprise the music companies that gave me the claim never even bothered to deny my appeal. On October 14, one month after my appeal, YouTube would give an email saying my appeal for the claim was successful which keep in mind these are big record labels and music companies that own the rights to the song. So what do you think YouTube did next? Four days later on October 18, I would receive the worst news as they had terminated my channel for "Circumvention." Now notice how only four days after removing the copyright claim to my most viewed video did they terminate my channel. Keep in mind my channel has lasted for more than 2 years and no problem was ever mentioned by YouTube up until this. It may speculation but I think either their AI did actually falsely terminated my channel or they might have done it on purpose. Keep in mind that some of the biggest record labels have the rights to the song and the fact that they not only waited for my channel to reach the qualifcations for the partnership program but also when their claim was gone from my video YouTube or possibly these record labels might have told YouTube to terminate my channel. Again this is all speculation but think how it all connects. But my question is why would they want to target my channel? I only just wanted to archive moments from TV and keep in mind that many of these channels that I recorded are either shutting down or have already shut down. To see that YouTube might have targeted me over this and yet have helped channel that post things that actually break TOS like "goonvideos" is insane. It's sad that even to this very day I have been ignored by YouTube themselves.

@shazyoutube @reneritchie Thank you Shaz. What you’re doing for the community of banned creators truly means a lot. Having someone actually document these cases helps us feel less invisible while we fight to be heard.

Today’s community showcase @anotherdive Day 104 of fighting for his channel back. He made documentaries. YouTube’s AI deleted everything overnight. That’s what we’re documenting 295+ creators and counting. @reneritchie docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… #RetweetTheSheet
