It's now common to grief uploaders by flagging ancient videos, because it has recently become very effective with reporting policy changes. This is so well-known that some users deleted years of videos which were getting random strikes, sometimes copyright strikes with the offender's email listed.

It strikes me as strange that neither RT nor the offal guy are familiar enough with Youtube to consider that. By them, it can only be staff or site algos? Not reports policies? And they still hold on to Youtube despite earning nothing and blaming them for it? Sad!
