YouTube channels closed for a while
Although YouTube is a big platform, sometimes important problems can occur due to problems. Due to a problem that occurred at night, many channels and accounts were closed for violating the rules. Even accounts that have never uploaded videos were closed with warnings. In addition, users whose accounts were also closed lost access to platforms such as YouTube TV, YouTube Premium, and YouTube Music.
YouTube announced that the problem was noticed and the problem was started to be solved immediately. In the incoming mail, it was stated that the accounts were closed due to spam. Access to features such as saved playlists and libraries was lost due to the problem usually encountered by users in the Americas, Europe, and Asia.
Stating that the removed content will be added soon, YouTube made the following statements:
‘We are seeing reports of channels being incorrectly removed due to Spam and Deceptive Practices. Our teams are actively working to reactivate channels. If your channel was incorrectly removed and reactivated, you may notice that some content, such as playlists, may be missing. Don’t worry – this is just a delay and all your content will be restored soon.’
According to reports from users, account access has been restored, but there are a few gaps. These shortcomings will be addressed by YouTube as soon as possible.
