YOUTUBE IS STARTING TO FEEL LIKE A DICTATORSHIP
It can feel like YouTube doesn't care about the people behind the channels — the years of work, time, creativity and communities we've built.
THE CIRCUMVENTION POLICY NEEDS SERIOUS REFORM.
If one channel is terminated, why should completely clean channels connected to the same creator automatically be at risk?
If those channels have no violations and follow YouTube's rules, they should be judged on their own content and conduct.
ONE MISTAKE SHOULD NOT MEAN A LIFETIME OF PUNISHMENT.
We understand YouTube must stop intentional ban evasion. But there must be a difference between someone deliberately abusing the platform and a genuine creator who made a mistake and wants to do better.
WE ARE CREATORS. NOT CRIMINALS.
We are asking @TeamYouTube:
1 . Reform the circumvention policy
2 . Protect genuinely clean channels
3 . Give creators individual human review
4 . Provide clear explanations
5 . Give genuine creators a path to a second chance
WE DON'T WANT YOUTUBE WITHOUT RULES.
WE WANT RULES THAT ARE FAIR TO CREATORS.

Hi @TeamYouTube After my appeal was rejected , i posted on youtube community on 17th Aug & again on 19th Aug regarding my terminated channel but still haven't received a reply im sure there was no violation -it happened by mistake.
Please review my case manually once
YouTube Creators Protest AI Channel Terminations Without Explanations
YouTube used AI to give me a LIFETIME BAN with zero warning and zero explanation.
My only “violation”? First-offense Shorts CTAs (“like, sub & follow me on Roblox so I can help with the event”).
No links. No money. Clean history. Clean 40k channel also wiped.
That was warnable. Instead I got permanent exile.
This is exactly what creators are protesting AI terminations with no human review and no chance to fix anything.
Where did the 3 strike system GO?
@TeamYouTube@nealmohan
If you had your YouTube channel WRONGFULLY terminated, please comment below with:
1. Your YouTube account profile picture
2. What content you create
3. The reason YouTube gave you for your channel termination, and when you received your termination email
@TeamYouTube, fix this!
Hi @TeamYouTube My channel “@The_Stick_Man_Story” was terminated for Spam, Deceptive Practices and Scams. I submitted an appeal, but it was rejected . Could you please request a manual re-check of the termination I willing to correct anything that may have unintentionally violate
Hi @TeamYouTube
I sincerely apologize. I create content myself, never spam or automated work. I wasn't aware it violated guidelines, and received no prior warning or strike. I respect YT's policies and will follow all guidelines. Please restore my channel. #SupportCreators
