Well my main concern is that after I appealed they confirmed the decision. This means it was looked at by at least 2 persons, right?
And isn't it annoying that they don't tell you the actual reason? How is that fair and reasonable?

To my sensibilities it is outrageous. Youtube needs some competition.

Too many people is using that video to build websites to scam people.

Should just ban certain server IP address rather than banning the video.

OP, every new video you post, you put a link directly to it, and a link for all previous videos as well. This happens in every thread you start. Youtube probably sees this as solicitation.

Time is on our side, yes it is!

Interesting this is the second potential claim of a social networking type site may be censoring BTC advertisments. Anyway I don't think there is anything to worry it at this point. is a ton to worry about. I see videos about BTC being reposted frequently so I doubt they would try and censor it fully it at all. May want to try and contact support and see what information you can find.

Is there a place where one can complain if he thinks youtube is treating him unfair?
Their appeal process is kinda funny, because probably the same team that wrongfully suspended it reviewed the appeal.

I just read their guidelines again, there is NOTHING we have violated, really.

by the way, did any of those decentralized video sites got any traction already?
This youtube shit is going over the line now.

When they start removing videos for no reason, you know that they have grown too big to care.

Fuck youtube!
You want to put up personal videos that won't get blocked?
Use http://www.real.com/

Yea, I know, I'm sure you are asking what year is this???

I use that real player cloud shit and it's great for putting videos up that you KNOW youtube will tear down!

Ps. we should stop blaming Real Player for "buffering"!! i mean you had a 56K connection to the interwebs FFS and you're trying to watch porn! of course it needed to buffer!

as far as bloatware, YES! they used to bloat the SHIT of your windows PC, but this is all a webUI. No need to install dick!

This is a case for switching to Vimeo. I have a friend who got his videos taken down for "copyright violations" when they were HIS videos that he created using an animation program called Blender. He was mad, but I talked him into at least giving Vimeo a look. Vimeo's one weakness is that they charge uploaders of videos if they go over a certain number of gigabytes, but they make up for it by providing a platform that doesn't waste viewers' time with irrelevant video advertisements and you can still embed them on your own website. Right now he's creating an independent movie, and I was just telling him that having a 30-second trailer on Vimeo would make a nice addition to his Indiegogo campaign for when he wants to raise money to promote it.

there's also Daily Motion...no limits

Google/YT has too much power...thats the problem of centralization.

OP, did they ever give a reason why it was suspended? This doesn't make sense, because there are several channels that are dedicated to bitcoin topic.

I know Google Adsense likes to delete things easy as fuck for no apparent reason, maybe they did something wrong in the video? Usually no apparent reasons is just a really anal decision, they censure everything these days.

I haven't spammed any links or whatever, so it's not that.
They let you appeal only once per 6 months.

So, it seems like there isn't really a reason and there is nothing that can be done?

Does anyone know someone from google we could take this to?

And again, please upvote on reddit, I feel like this is the only chance we could fix this.
