Why? Don’t they have a fascist channel they could go after?
Here we go again, after YouTube just last February took down the Climate State channel, and now again. The Climate State channel had close to 18.000 subscribers and 6.5 million views, the biggest climate change focused channel.
If visitors now try to access the channel, a highlighted message reads:
This account has been terminated due to multiple or severe violations of YouTube’s policy against spam, deceptive practices, and misleading content or other Terms of Service violations.
Back in February it took several days before the channel was enabled again – and nobody provided any explanation. The channel is in good standing, meaning there are zero copyright strikes, there are no valid copyright claims, and no other community violations we made aware of. The community guidelines are very broad, and can be read here. There are however, regularly copyright claims on content published into the public domain, or where we have the permission for usage, or where we consider the content to be fair use, or with the scope on education. See for instance this incomplete list of past claims.
Thus, the channel termination appears entirely random and we are left guessing why YouTube wants to disable Climate State, again.
Besides writing to YouTube staff in regards to the termination, if you feel that YouTube should activate our channel, sign below petition. It takes just a few minutes. If the channel stays inactive then I have no longer the option to publish video content, the stuff I did the past two years extensively, with hundreds of videos – on the brought climate topic spectrum, since a YouTube policy prohibits me from doing this in light of a termination. The petition will be send to YouTube’s CEO.
