Here's the clip that apparently terminated my YouTube channel.
While livestreaming about the SpaceX IPO, I tried to share what I believed was the official livestream of the SpaceX IPO ceremony. I clicked on a video on YouTube that appeared to be legitimate live coverage. Afterall, it was apparently on the offical Nasdaq YT channel. After playing it for about 20 seconds, I realized it was an AI deepfake, so I immediately stopped it and told my viewers it was fake.
My only intention was to show the real ceremony to my audience. As soon as I noticed the issue, I clicked off.
I’ve learned from this experience and will be much more careful when selecting and verifying content before going live. That said, I believe terminating the entire channel for an unintentional mistake was quite severe. I would appreciate it if you could review and reconsider this decision.
@YouTubeCreators @YouTube @TeamYouTube @nealmohan Please reinstate my channel.
