IShowSpeed hits out at YouTube strike for \u201charassment, threats or cyberbullying\u201d IShowSpeedOne of YouTube\u2019s biggest streamers, IShowSpeed, has been hit with yet another strike on the platform, for breaking rules on harassment, threats or cyberbullying \u2013 which he has claimed is unfair. Speed was previously in hot water with the platform in July, after streaming an adult Minecraft mod. He was banned for two weeks \u2013 the standard punishment for a streamer\u2019s second strike. On September 21, his channel was hit with yet another strike. Although this time the reason is not yet clear. \u201cNo way I just woke up to a strike @TeamYouTube,\u201d IShowSpeed tweeted. \u201cThis one felt very weird because what happened in this stream for me to get this.\u201d Speed clarified that the ban was a result of his stream from two days prior, on September 19. In that stream, he played Fortnite, and reacted to Twitter and TikTok. However, at the end of the stream, he visited the site \u2018Ome TV\u2019 \u2013 a live chatting platform that cycles through random individuals on camera. These types of websites are banned on Twitch \u2013 but not explicitly so on YouTube. It could be the strike was caused by something that occurred during this segment of the stream, when Speed was chatting live to random users. YouTube rule also mentions \u201csharing personal information, or content that includes egregious insults based on personal attributes (such as protected group status or physical traits) is not allowed.\u201d At one point, Speed asked a random user to use the n word, after they said they were black. The user responded \u201cno, because I am Muslim.\u201d Some have also speculated that it was because he was \u201ctrolled\u201d into doing an offensive gesture. Team YouTube is yet to respond to Speed\u2019s Twitter post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
