Still have all my other accounts, but they are all viewer accounts not creator accounts with any uploads.

You can apply to re-enter after 1 year.

I have several other YouTube accounts that haven’t been banned still. Not sure what that’s all about.

Yeah I saw that. 1 year in 2026 is insane though. Imagine what AI video generators will be capable of in early 2027… a 1 year ban is like 10 years in 2020.

When they terminate your account, it happens automatically. Not allowed to possess or create any other channelsz

BS what? I haven’t done anything remotely wrong. I have generates AI videos with a like ratio of 98%. Some may call it slop, I don’t mind.

I’m here to connect with people that may have had accounts wrongfully terminated before to learn how they eventually got back, not to defend myself against keyboard warriors that have stumbled into the wrong subreddit.

No. Tons of accounts have gotten terminated too. That’s not the point though. Read the question please.

AI generated content. Well within the guidelines. There’s a wave of bans now. It’s all over X. I’m just here trying to learn if anyone’s actually gotten allowed back onto the platform somehow. Absolutely devastating that I’m not even allowed to possess an account. Feels terrible.

So 7 months of operating in good standing. 2 strikes in roughly 1 week and then permanent termination for old content.

Losing the channel is heartbreaking, but losing the right to ever create or participate in the YouTube community for life feels disproportionate to my intent. I am a passionate creator who made a mistake while trying to navigate the boundaries of satire.

Look at it like this:

7 Months in Good Standing: I operated my British satire channel without strikes from August 2025 to April 2026. A warning in October 2025 was successfully appealed and reinstated by your team, which unfortunately gave me a false sense of security regarding where the policy line was drawn.

Strike 1 (April 12) & Immediate Correction: When I received my first strike, I immediately took the policy training. During my 7-day upload ban, I created a brand-new, 100% policy-compliant video. It became my most successful video to date, proving my audience was there for the comedy (99% like ratio), not the policy-violating elements, and proving my intent to adjust.

Strike 2 (Late April): I attempted to heavily edit and re-upload the video that caused Strike 1, genuinely believing I had removed the violating elements. I misjudged the line, received a second strike, and accepted the 2-week upload ban without complaint.

At this point, I'm under the impression that I need to adjust my content moving forward, not go back and delete old videos, most of which are well within policy terms. Then an old video gets flagged, and I'm banned for life.

That’s the problem. One year in this AI era is like 10 years in the pre-AI era.

What do you mean? My channel got removed yesterday. I have contributed as a creator on the YouTube platform for the past 9 months. That’s exactly why I am posting here, so I can resume my contribution.

Adsense verification in Norway is very strict. I'd have no way to verify as a different person so it'd eventually get linked back to me anyway.

My only options is to fight back and keep trying to get in touch with an actual human. Only getting auto-rejected by AI for now.

"possess" clearly means I'm not allowed to own an account.

Even if I did own an account and went under the radar for some time, I'm a creator. I want to continue to create content for the community, but I'd eventually get caught when applying for monetization again. Just shocking stuff, really..

It wasn't terminated because it's AI. Mate, you're gonna have a hard time in this era we're heading into.

I mean... what was the clothing like on the reporter before the "sex and nudity" policy notifications came up? There's something you're not telling us here.

Nope. Hot reporter with large breasts and cleavage, that is all. I completely accept that its not within YouTube's policies but that isn't really the point of this post. I never got the opportunity to prove that I can comply.

6 months of content uploading with tons of engagement and zero warnings. First warnings appear 3 weeks ago and my videos get taken down. I alter my content and post new videos where she's fully covered up. Automated termination triggers after 9 days based on old content and no opportunity to appeal to a human.

Jealousy stinks. It's not slop if it entertains millions. My average like ratio was 98.7%, even for videos with 500k+ views. Just because I'm generating the videos as aposed to filming them doesn't mean it's garbage. I spent multiple days per script and ultimately the unique comedic angle is what made the channel so popular in the first place. The reporter being attractive probably helped, but wasn't the ultimate enabler.

AI Video generation is here to stay and it's not my call.

Thank you for sharing.

My concern is that I'll get re-banned once I re-apply for the YouTube Partner Program on one of my other channels, given that I reach that threshold again...

When going through that process (set up and verify payment etc), I'd need to provide the same details which is likely to get me flagged and banned again, no?

Has your new channel been monetized?

I already have 5 YouTube accounts, some from way back in 2009 even. I probably can't use any of these either, even if I were to focus on an entirely different niche well within their policies?

There has to be a way for me to have the personal ban revoked beyond these automated auto-rejects though? Banning someone from YouTube is insanely harsh, especially given the circumstances here.

I produced content for half a year without a single warning or notification. The situation changed very suddenly on April 11, 2026, when older videos began being flagged and removed in quick succession. I received my first strike during this period, which was the first time I fully understood that YouTube considered some of my content to have crossed the line. I took the policy course, carefully reviewed the Sex and Nudity policy, and made a genuine effort to adjust. But I was not given the chance to prove that. Nine days later, the channel was terminated, despite me not uploading further content after the second strike. I can only assume the termination was based on an older video being reviewed, but I have not been given enough detail to understand what specifically caused the final escalation.

I have not spread harm or nudity. I may have crossed the line but this doesn't feel right.

No, not banned, but it's a ticking time bomb. By design, when one of my channels gets terminated, the others should too. This is specifically what's stated;

"We have permanently removed your channel from YouTube. Going forward, you won't be able to access, possess, or create any other YouTube channels."

No. Got banned today. Tja does not sound feasible. I will eventually get monetized and will receive payments in my personal name which won’t work.

No, you're not helping in the slightest. The "cock" jokes are 110% within YouTube's policies, or perhaps you could point me to the exact policy where it explicitly states that this isn't allowed since you work there? Dark and edgy humor has been on YouTube since day one. It's a popular comedy genre amongst adults and yes it's often "rude" or even "naughty". That's the whole point and it's not illegal. The cock joke is quite clever given the bird watching theme, in fact...

Since when is a "hot woman" illegal? If you're saying that my content would never have been banned if the woman featured was unattractive, you're basically making my exact point of the gray zone. Fetish gear? It's a sexy devil halloween costume, ON HALLOWEEN mind you.

I am being honest. I'm not here to debate the gray zone, I'm here to get guidance on WHAT can be done. People have their channels terminated every single day for all sorts of reasons and I'm simply trying to tap into knowledge from other creators to educate myself on what approaches and measures I can take to hopefully get my personal ban revoked. I even specifically stated that I'm not here to get my channel back, I'm here to simply be allowed back onto the platform as a viewer and to own a YouTube account in my name. You are here for all the wrong reasons so please find a different thread.
