Yeah this is vtuber related but this is also leads into discussion of how bad YouTube's strike system is and how it's being abused by malicious actors.

This probably began with her clip channel, a channel just dedicated to making clips out of her stream, being struck down out of nowhere. She herself said on stream she won't fight it conventionally because she would have to give her address as part of the counter claim so she's getting Vshojo her agency to help get it back.

Fast foward to a few hours ago, as she's still hosting a subathon on Twitch, her entire MAIN Youtube channel gets terminated and Vshojo lawyers are now getting involved.

I only have two explanations on this:

  1. There's a malicious actor within YouTube targeting vtubers for some reason (a lot have been getting random bans for a while) and decided to ban her channel on a Friday so it wouldn't be resolved till Monday (similar to what Sony did with Helldivers 2 PSN requirement)

  2. A malicious actor REALLY wants to dox Ironmouse and is trying to use YouTube's copyright system to get it in the counter claim.

The reason she's avoiding giving her address is she has fucking Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) meaning she can't simply leave ger home if some freak learns her address and stalks her plus she lives with her now getting elderly parents. But this will probably blow up more since she's THE biggest vtuber streamer (nearly the biggest female streamer) in the world so already the pressure is building against Youtube for this.

Maybe this'll go to a court case where Youtube is forced to defend banning a streamer with CVID with no strikes or maybe on Monday her channels get restored and someone is secretly fired, either way this is probably the biggest example of the war on vtubers.

Edit: adding this as a note on the original than a new post, as of 23/09/2024 both her main and VOD channels are back, seems like the banning of her main on Friday WAS like Sony and Helldivers 2 and they immediately returned all her channels back on Monday. Doubt the people responsible will be punished though.
