    You did it!! CZcams has REVERSED its decision & reinstated my original safety video! AMAZING EFFORT everyone, this is a really important issue & I believe it will genuinely save lives. Thank you for sharing, tweeting, commenting! Unfortunately, we lost 7000+ original comments but already 1000s of people have jumped on it again & the video is rising up search results for 'fractal wood burning'. Let's get it stuck at the top, so it's the first thing that crafty folks see when they search the topic. Original video: czcams.com/video/wzosDKcXQ0I/video.html

    Ordinarily it'd be virtually impossible to establish that CZcams itself was in any way responsible for these deaths, but this activity clearly demonstrates that
    1. A human being gave this issue attention, and took action on it with the explicit purpose of "keeping people safe". This is openly acknowledging that they understand the potential for harm in hosting videos on this subject, and that they have at least some responsibility towards mitigating that harm.
    2. They took the completely wrong action, which had the exact opposite effect. And this effect is quantifiable: we can measure how much traffic the video was getting before, and literally count the number of lives saved.

      I don't think this one instance would be able to prove much unless this keeps on happening in this channel or across the platform because they did reverse it after effort. If a lot of data can be compiled about warning videos being specially targeted (even if it was reversed) or they put up a difficult fight to get those videos reinstated multiple times then there would be a sold case that youtube is violating their own ToS which would be kinda funny. They algorithmed so hard they forgot to hard code in the things that they shouldn't touch.

      I think this video get banned because of the use of words like "kill." The bots decided that meant it was encouraging violence.

      Using words like deadly, violent, death or similar words in the title gets it caught by the algorithm for harmful conduct and it eventually bans automatically. It's not a reviewed process. Looking at the title of this video I think this will also get taken down again. It's why you see weird censoring (or replacement for the word entirely) for seemingly tame words on popular channels. This is how they adapted in current YT climate. Spread this knowledge.

      CZcams does not care about their creators, unless they are creating drama ie. Jake Paul, Tana Mongieau, Jeffree Star, James Charles, Shane Dawson, etc. Based on prior history CZcams allows those aforementioned folks free reign with no censorship. Because $$$
      Not all people are created equally and CZcams let’s the other creators know this by suppressing content.
