Oh, if you follow the channel, it's CLEAR someone, probably just the one person, has a clear vendetta against Henry And Jeannie (MXRPlays). They used to know one person at youtube. So when they'd get their channel strike, they'd email him, and he'd review what the strike was for.

It was stuff like "Advocating child harm".

The guy would look at the video in question, and see no evidence of that. No children in the video. No discussions of child harm. Any human without a grudge could see it was a false autobot ID. So he would remove the strike. Then the next day, the strike would be back. He'd email the guy, and the guy would look through the logs, and find it was done by a human working for youtube. He'd remove the strike again, but he'd tell them "I can't remove it again. If he puts the strike back, it goes above me. Then the strike would be put back.....and it would have to be waited out. The strike stays on your account I think they said 30 days. And if you get 3 strikes at the same time, the channel gets suspended.

So they wouldn't upload any more videos, and then 3 days later they'd get another strike on a video that was 4 years old. Clearly not a bot, since bots generally don't seek out old content with no activity.

And the same situation would ensue. They hung on, and kept doing this cat and mouse game for 8 years. Until the guy they knew at youtube left the company. And then they had no one to delete strikes. Any calls to anyone at youtube were ignored. And the channel wasn't even suspended, it was terminated.

And when this other guy is reuploading their old stuff on his own personal channel, youtube says they have no way to DMCA it because the original source file, the proof that he has to say it's his content, was deleted. Because his channel was terminated.
