My Google account that I had for 15+ years got banned from YouTube when I let my 9 year old play around making edited videos. He'd mash up clips from PBS Kids and other places. Apparently PBS didn't like this and after a couple of vague warnings, my account is banned from YouTube for life, no actual chance of appeal. Of course I could just ditch it and open a new account under another name, but I'm stubborn, over seven years have passed and they're still silent on the issue. I can watch YouTube, but not comment or post videos. Oh well.
