YouTube recently banned popular Australian content creator LazarBeam for a week. LazarBeam, as usual, was reviewing some Tik-Tok clips, and apparently, one of them violated YouTube’s child safety norms. The YouTuber was certainly not happy with the decision and claimed that none of the children were harmed in the video.

Following his week-long ban, Lazar has returned to the platform. However, he cannot risk another such incident since it may escalate to a permanent ban. And to avoid that scenario, Lazar has deleted content worth 500 million views from his channel.

LazarBeam has previously faced strikes for his old videos

Unfortunately, this is not the first incident of such a strike on LazarBeam’s channel. Earlier this year, YouTube had banned him because of a vide that was three years old! LazarBeam’s channel is now on the verge of being deleted if he gets another strike. He has a huge fan base, with over 16 million subscribers on his main channel, and 200K subscribers on his other channel “Lazar”. But  LazarBeam’s fans always support him through thick and thin.

Fans are, naturally, are worried about their favorite YouTuber. While many are happy he weeded out the controversial content from his channel, others are questioning YouTube and its policy enforcement.

Lazar is aware that any change in YouTube’s policies will take time and he is doing his best to save the channel.

Is YouTube’s “content management” at fault here?

It is no surprise that YouTubers regularly face strikes on their channels. These strikes are mostly for copyright infringement and controversial content. This is a good measure, but its implementation is inefficient and faulty at times.

There are some problems in the YouTube strike system:

• Strikes about the violation of norms are not verified properly and creators still face bans on vague grounds.
• Creators get copyright strikes on their original content without any verification.

Other big YouTubers like Markiplier and PewDiePie are also vocal about YouTube’s faulty management. With an ever-increasing number of creators talking about the matter, it is high time YouTube made some changes.
