After being published on my channel for over two years, YouTube put a strike on my channel for my video showing people how to set up Jellyfin on their NAS, for promoting "dangerous or harmful content".

Video was posted here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VkY1vTpCJY) and had nothing about bypassing DRM, stealing content, or bypassing subscription services (other than a call to stop using Netflix, Disney+, etc. because they keep jacking up rates while providing less quality).

Better than Disney+: Jellyfin on my NAS

@geerlingguy Considering this has been happening to other video makers, I'm wondering if this is a deliberate policy: aggressive strikes to frighten other creators and make them self-censor.

@vaskaraeca Well it's easy to implement, works, because it sows terror related to a creator's livelihood, and if you appeal then they can say ”oopsie, our bad”.

Also my Hanlon's Razor got dull with experience.
