Yeah, YT is eating itself. I've found an easy system to hedge against youtube censorship is as follows:

1. get BitChute to link your account so all of your YT vids upload there immediately and automatically;

2. Then post both the YT link and the BC link here on Steem as well.

3. Let everyone know what YT is doing and that you can be found here and on BitChute as well in case your channel ever gets shut down.

Redundancy leads to a lower likelihood of censorship.

Good luck ma'dude!
