Youtube Targetting Cryptocurrency Channels?
EEVblog:
Chris Dunn and others crypto related channels have been targeted, with video removed and strikes.
For "Harmful and dangerous content" :wtf:
Makes me scared to release this video I have uploaded:
Berni:
What the hell?
I could understand science channels getting wacked by the algorithm for containing fire and all that, but how the hell does it connect cryptocurrencies with something dangerous.
Okay you can buy a service of murdering someone on the dark web using bitcoins, but you can do that with real money too, so should any video about money be banned then?
Psi:
It's likely just the AI learning that there's a link between cryptocurrency and illegal activity.
Google will probably have to manually white-list cryptocurrency, then it will all go away.

Unless this was deliberate, I wouldn't rule that out.
