YouTuber Nikki Limo confused after being demonetized for bizarre reason Popular content creator Nikki Limo was shocked after learning that she had been demonetized on YouTube, apparently because of her content featuring \u2018firearms\u2019, despite being a cooking channel. Nikki Limo has built a considerable following of over 580,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel for her vlogs and podcast series. The popular YouTuber has been uploading videos for many years, however, she was left surprised after discovering why her channel had been demonetized on January 4. Nikko revealed that she had received a notification from YouTube explaining that her channel was demonetized due to a \u201csignificant portion\u201d of her videos being based around firearms. The content creator explained her confusion to her fans regarding the demonetization, suggesting that it was likely a mistake on YouTube\u2019s end. \u201cYouTube demonetized my channel because \u201ca significant portion\u201d of my content has to do with firearms?\u201d she began to question, clearly confused by the ruling on her channel. Just found out @YouTube demonetized my channel because “”a significant portion”” of my content has to do with firearms..???? I don’t know anything about firearms! I AM SO CONFUSED. \ud83d\ude28 Like, I literally make cooking videos. pic.twitter.com\/JaF0fwLwPq \u2014 Nikki Limo (@NikkiLimo) January 4, 2020 \u201cI don\u2019t know anything about firearms!\u201d She admitted, explaining that none of her videos are based around firearms, \u201cI am so confused, I literally make cooking videos.\u201d The YouTuber later highlighted that she had also been given a guide to the policies on content featuring firearms, saying. \u201cIt actually thinks I teach how to build guns\u2026\u201d I\u2019m flattered because it makes me seem hella badass, but also WTF. \u2014 Nikki Limo (@NikkiLimo) January 4, 2020 Some had suggested that perhaps the use of knives in the kitchen, used for preparing meals, was perhaps why the content had been flagged. But, the message sent from YouTube clearly addressed guns. However, Nikki also shared that although she was seemingly punished for nothing, she still explained that it made her seem \u2018badass\u2019: \u201cI\u2019m flattered because it makes me seem hella badass, but also WTF.\u201d As of the time of writing, it appears as if Limo\u2019s channel is still demonetized and it is unknown if YouTube plans on reversing their ruling against the content creator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
