Ok, excerpt of actual fresh news from False video:
Youtube continue killing clippers, guy who WORKS FOR Shylily is down for "impersonation", despite "channel is not ran by her" being plastered everywhere.
Nekrolina's clip channel that is RUN BY HERSELF is deletef too, appeal with proof of ownership is rejected. Among other ones.
I saw couple channels deleted for "impersonation" way back in December if not earlier.
Now, what i think it is: Youtube is trying to lower server and support load by any means possible. Checking every video for content match is enormous processing load, and financially it makes more sense to kill the channel than spend resources on it. Also cheaper to kill channels than have humans resolve such issues. Same with war on 3rd party clients and adblockers: cheaper to lose millions of viewers than have them watch with no ADs. They will continue to explore ways to cut down costs in increasingly worse ways until real competition arise. Then cycle will repeat.
As for clipper hunt specifically: i don't see them backtracking on it unless they face multiple lawsuits from streamers themselves, and especially from corpos. This absolutely can hold water even if clippers themselves won't be initiating it, frame is as something like "it's industry standard to have 3rd party clippers to do all that, it benefits both parties greatly and unprompted intervention from youtube and cause financial losses for original creators, thus constitute tortuous interference"
