I want to be on the streets and can't. I'm high risk for COVID19 and can't take the chance. And there are many of us who can't either. A few years ago some dear ones and I wrote this, "26 ways to be in the struggle if you can't be in the streets." https://t.co/i3OMRQ403p
@TeamYouTube The automated demonetizations for "Inauthentic Content" are completely crushing our businesses and our Lives. These are real, human voiced channels. This algorithmic error doesn't just hurt the narrator; it has a devastating financial effect on our authors and everyone down the production chain who relies on this income (looking at you @vidIQ ,@TubeBuddy).
We have compiled a list of unique authorial affected creators, creating content that millions of people enjoy. Afterall, storytelling is the worlds oldest form of entertainment.
Every single channel here features 100% human voiced storytelling, unique scripts and hundreds of thousands of hours of original production. The current systems sweeps are misidentifying branding as automation.
It is not fair to us, our teams and last but most importantly our subscribers and fans that an algorithm can instantly silence the voices they rely on. Our Hardcore Fans listen to us every single night to destress, escape and connect with real human storytellers. They deserve better than a platform that locks out authentic creators over a glitch. Let's put the YOU back in YOUTUBE.
The Demonetized and Silenced:
Here are OUR VOICES. Please reconsider us for monetization

An open letter to YouTube.
We need to talk.
Creators are waking up to terminated channels, wiped revenues, and years of work gone overnight. No warning. No explanation. No appeal that actually works.
So on behalf of every creator who has ever put their life into this platform, here are our demands.
1. Tell us WHY.
A termination email with zero context is not a policy. If you are going to end someone's livelihood, the least you can do is explain what they actually did wrong.
2. Fix the appeals process.
Right now appealing a strike feels like shouting into a void. An automated rejection in 24 hours is not a review. We want real humans making real decisions.
3. Stop punishing whole channels for one video.
One bad upload should not erase five years of content. Strike the video. Don't delete the creator.
4. Give us a warning before termination.
A strike system exists for a reason. Use it. Creators should not be going from zero issues to fully terminated with no steps in between.
5. Be transparent about what is changing.
Every few months the rules quietly shift and channels start disappearing. Tell us what changed. We are not mind readers.
6. Protect the creators who built this platform.
YouTube would not exist without creators. The people losing their channels right now are not bad actors. Many of them are the reason people still open the app.
We are not asking for special treatment.
We are asking to be treated like partners, not liabilities.

Hey @TeamYouTube
my 10-year-old horror narration channel 'Creepy Ghost Stories' (nearly 1,900 videos) was just demonetized for 'Inauthentic Content'. I am the sole human author, narrator, and producer of this decade-long library. Can a human please look at this?
