Sadly youtube is deleting Reporting From Ukraine. https://youtu.be/2v063wuJtM0?si=G6aHI3ThJUSZpajJ
This i likely from russian bots that have made a huge effort during the war to supress real news.
I hope someone is alle to help RFU with cumunication with Youtube to not be permanently deleted.

I never really like that channel anyway. It seams more self serving than anything news worthy. Information was questionable at best. Thats my opinion tho.
That’s because YouTube bows down to communist governments and VPN users who manipulate western media. Google / YouTube as a company will bow down to the freedom of the platform or they will be replaced. Don’t think they wont. They will be called to account just like Twitter and Tick Tok.
I am sceptical about this channel as many others have noted, they make a lot of money but do not support the AFU and are likely a business in Hong Kong. Will link what ive read.

In the Youtube channel, this person says they are Ukrainian:
https://www.youtube.com/c/reportingfromukraine
That channel, and most video ends with a link to a shopify store:
https://uasupporter.com
In that store you can see they are trying to sell products, and monetise videos:
https://uasupporter.com/en-bg/pages/partnership-with-reporting-from-ukraine-channel
You can see that the company that runs this store is a company in Hong Kong – Alitance Limited.

Alitance Limited also run the following two stores: https://bestromance.shop/ https://idwbase.com/pages/about-us
They also have a Patreon channel (making $4k a month), which shows their youtube has already been demonetised.

Alitance Limited, you can find the owners of the company in Hong Kong. This shows this owner is Fadia Lucy Dick Hoareau from Seychelles,

The channel is consistently wrong and inaccurate:
18th April: It’s happening, RUSSIANS LOSING GRIP ON BAKHMUT
5th May: IT’S OFFICIAL! WAGNER ACCEPT BRUTAL DEFEAT AND LEAVE BAKHMUT
27th May: 95% of Wagner in Bakhmut killed or mutilated
The channel is purely about telling people what they want to hear to get money.
You can apply to share the monetisation yourself, if you want.
– You get 65% of total monetization if videos contain promotions
– You get 50% of total monetization if videos do not contain promotions

Here’s the materials you can practice with from them:

To be clear, I have no problem with them making videos and getting ad revenue from that. What I don’t like is that they are claiming to be Ukrainian when they are not, and people send them money thinking they are supporting a Ukrainian or Ukraine, when this is a Chinese business owned in Seychelles.
How many drones could Ukraine buy if the $5k+ per month was sent to proper channels, not some guy in China?

YouTube platform is under the Kremlins influence, their bot strategy is working. Such bullshit that they side with fascism over independent news creators.
Putin’s digital army knows exactly how to play the game.
There are still a LOT of russian or russian shill channels still up and spreading propaganda and misinformation. Are they going to be deleted too?
Good, sick of those damn clickbait titles/thumbnails (looks like this one is no different) 🙄
I have subscribed to his Patreon , the battle is not only been fought in Ukraine unfortunately .
Just as bad as the tankie YouTubers on the other side. There’s 0 evidence that they actually support UA.
No massive loss. I support Ukraine but channels like this one paint a false picture of events.
YouTube/Google is out of control. I can no longer comment and all previous comments have been erased. Why? Because I use the ad blocking Vivaldi browser and refuse to pay Google for permissions. But one can F YouTube via private tabs/windows, Tor, or browser extensions. F Google.
This is bs clickbait
Youtube has been censored everything Ukraine related. Its obvious they’re republican run. As well as Chinese affiliates. You can’t as mention anything against China or it will be “Demonized”. Anything 1989 Tiananmen Square will get “demonized” and not vied for anyone else..
God forbid the truth is exposed!!
Weird world. This channel will get shut down but Patrick Lancasters not?!
Does anyone know what became of the somewhat similar but in my view more sober and nuanced channel Military Lab? From doing videos almost daily he apparently just stopped around christmas.
It’s a garbage channel like 99% of the ones promoted here. It can burn.
Let it die, it’s garbage clickbait capitalizing on the war.
I kinda liked the passed years listerning to Fadia Lucy Dick Hoareau from Seychelles. Guess (s)he’s my first AI frend.
