YouTube warns content creators deleted videos can still get channel strikes YouTubeYouTubers are concerned about the platform\u2019s policy that can give channels strikes for content in a video that had already been deleted. Raising questions of random, retroactive strikes that can affect anyone. YouTuber channel \u2018The Reel Rejects\u2019 published a video on May 20 about receiving a warning from the site about a video he had permanently deleted hours before. Although it was a warning this time, it\u2019s causing concerns among the broader YouTube community. \u201cTo clarify,\u201d The Reel Rejects\u2019 Greg Alba said, reciting logs between him and YouTube support. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter if I go back and delete videos from six years ago that I, myself, go \u2018Oh this [is] a cause for concern with YouTube\u2019s newest censorship rules.\u2019 I can still get flagged or get a strike from them.\u201d The YouTube support rep responded: \u201cI\u2019m afraid so.\u201d This got the attention of more creators on the platform that expressed a similar concern for possible infractions to their channels that may be unavoidable. As YouTube\u2019s policies have changed throughout the years, so have content creators\u2019 videos to adapt to new Community Guidelines. At times, YouTubers self-edit within these changes and delete videos before they can become a problem. But deleting the content might still present a problem for the channel, according to Alba\u2019s encounter with YouTube. Creators have long battled obstinate strikes to channels only for YouTube to reverse course, but there are those who were unaware of this policy. Timestamp at 4:16 for mobile viewers. There are others who were also interested about what that meant as far as privacy is concerned: \u201cGuess this shows that Youtube keeps absolutely everything even when you ask for it deleted,\u201d YouTuber \u2018Heavy Spoilers\u2019 said. Dexerto reached out to YouTube for clarification on the matter. We\u2019ll make sure to update this article if the Google-owned platform responds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
