It means you're lucky and should be skeptically optimistic. I'd gone nearly 2/3 years without a strike, and got all 3 within the span of just a few days. Not even enough time to make a backup account between the second and third one. >_>'


What really sucks about YT now is that they require A G-mail account as well as a Cell # in order to activate, making it harder to make backup accounts.

I've been suspended from youtube but still am very active on it. In fact I believe that most of my video downloads come from links from youtube that I put in the description.

Yeah. In January, I made a YT page for a group I'm in. They required a G-mail account upon registration, along with an active cell number, to text you an activation code.

Yeah, but AFAIK, you can use the same number more than once. I know I've used mine at least 3 times by this point. >_______>

It's just more evidence for them to forward to the prosecution. IP look-ups take time and money.

That's kind of a relief, but I know YT tracks repeat offenders via IP address meaning they'll know if you make a backup account.

Ah who cares, if you get suspended make a new account.
I've done it so many times.

The phone number thing is bunk. I just made a new account and left the field blank and it was fine. It is RECOMMENDED that you do this, but not a requirement.

Last time I tried to make a new account, there was some sort of error every time I tried - many times over several days. I forget what it was.

Then I connected through HotSpot Shield and had no problem at all. I guess my IP was on 'The List'.
