What type of content did you upload on your channel? YouTube has gotten really strict about certain topics over the past few years (for example true crime channels) and the people who create the content have had to make adjustments to accommodate.

I got that email when they removed one of my playlists at some point. Though not for that reason in your email. I contacted support and they apologised and restored the playlist. It was private, I have no idea how anyone reported it, and it was just music from my Spotify playlist as a backup.

Same here, they removed my whole account and said I violated their terms when I only ever used youtube for music playlists, never posted or commented. Emailed support and they restored my account. Moved to Spotify now though, YouTube pissed me off one too many times

You can get banned for a playlist you made, even if it's private. I'm not sure why you got banned for a music playlist tho. Straight up stupid

I have been in this situation once before, probably got hacked and spammed at the time a famous scam. Got the account back though. I emailed yt support stating I have never streamed or posted a video. Keep your account Id on hand.

Verify that's it's real, can you copy the email address it came from?

It might be a scam to steal your login information.

Have you made any comments on any other YouTube videos recently that were on any type of controversial subject?

And yet they allow literal porn as ads on YouTube? They need to stop this if they want their creatures to be family friendly.

u/superloneautisticspy 4d ago

Recently there's been content farms that use AI to generate videos of cats being brutally killed and shit and YouTube is doing absolutely nothing about it
