YouTube: “Upon review, we’ve determined that the channel is in violation of Community Guidelines”
YOUTUBE – The Google-owned video-sharing platform has terminated the YouTube channel of Pastor Apollo C. Quiboloy.
It was last June 20 when content creator Mutahar, known for his YouTube channel “SomeOrdinaryGamers”, called out Team YouTube on Twitter and said that Quiboloy is running a channel “still reaching out to victims”.
On Wednesday, Twitter user @TeamYouTube gave an update about Quiboloy’s channel.
Twitter user @TeamYouTube said that they reviewed Quiboloy’s channel and they have determined that the said channel is in violation of Community Guidelines. The team also said that the said channel has been terminated.
“Hey, update here: upon review, we’ve determined that the channel is in violation of Community Guidelines & has been terminated,” @TeamYouTube said in response to @OrdinaryGamers tweet.
While some netizens considered the move as a “Rare W” for the company, others said that they want the dislike count back to the platform.
