Says channel is terminated for violating ToS.

Basically the same thing that happened to other channels like LTT. If SCS has a good Google contact, there is a good chance they get their channel back.

Shieeett I do hope they get it back. So many videos on their channel dating back 15-16 years? Or even older?

They must've fell victim to the common YouTube scam.

An email disguises a PDF with a link that can hack into your account and compromising your channel. Many small and big channels have been through this.

Can 2FA protect against this?

i don't think so. there are ones that steal the cookies that keep you logged in, and can log in through those cookies that were stolen.

I legit thought my yt had bugged out and somehow merged the SCS and MLB pages or something. Glad somebody else caught it

A Polish Minecraft YouTuber called "Palion" was hacked by those same NFL livestreams 3 weeks ago, so my guess is that someone at SCS received an e-mail disguising a PDF as malware, as bwoah7 said

So far also the Youtube account “What on earth is this” has also been affected.

u/Punished_Lexi 2h ago

At least they do have the account back, but that fucking sucks lmao. Love that channel

u/Amalthean 2h ago

The account is still disabled.

u/BansheeGriffin 3h ago

Oh, that explains why I saw a reuploaded video (at least by title and thumbnail) and "Fox News" as avatar. Didn't click it, seimed weird.

It is also nice of them to warn us to avoid potential american football broadcasts.

u/andy1031 5h ago

SCS are Brewers fans, go Brew Crew

u/Own_Bluejay_9833 5h ago

I know of at least one other channel, what on earth is this, that was also hacked in the last day, with the same result

Russians getting pissy after the yandex attacks, I'm guessing.
