YouTube Restores Channels and Videos After Technical Glitch

YouTube has announced the successful reinstatement of all channels and most videos that were removed due to a technical glitch that incorrectly flagged them as spam. The Google-owned platform has been working diligently to address the issue after several channels were mistakenly removed, causing disruption for creators and viewers alike.

In a post on X, YouTube expressed relief, stating, “Happy to report that all channels and most videos incorrectly removed have been reinstated and subscriptions are restored (we’re still working on the last few, bear with us).” The company acknowledged the inconvenience this caused and thanked users for their patience during the resolution process.

Initially, YouTube’s team had confirmed that they were actively working on restoring the wrongly flagged channels and ensuring access to subscriptions, which includes YouTube TV, YouTube Premium, and YouTube Music. In a previous communication, the company noted, “We’re sorry for the trouble! Some content like playlists may be delayed, but it’s all coming back. Thanks for your patience while we work on this.”

The channels were flagged for “Spam and Deceptive Practices,” leading to the removal of access to subscriptions. While most channels have been reinstated, YouTube has indicated that some creators may still find certain content, such as playlists, missing. However, the company assured users that these will also be restored soon.

Reports indicate that some non-content creators faced difficulties accessing their accounts, watching videos, or using YouTube Music. Additionally, users with paid subscriptions, like YouTube Premium, found themselves unable to view saved content, including playlists, due to the glitch. YouTube has not disclosed how many users were impacted by the technical issue, but their swift action to restore functionality reflects their commitment to maintaining a reliable platform for both creators and viewers.
