"The company announced the second chance process last month, describing it as a "limited pilot project" for some creators, including those with channels banned under policies the platform has since abandoned. YouTube's announcement came the same day that the company issued a conciliatory letter to Republican Rep. Jim Jordan, who has pressured YouTube and other social media companies for years over unfounded claims that they deliberately censor conservative viewpoints."
"YouTube's changing rules Not all creators given the boot will be eligible for a second chance. YouTube notes that some types of channel terminations will stand, including bans for copyright infringement and for violations of its policies against abuse and violence off-platform. Channels eligible to be reinstated will see an option to request a fresh channel on YouTube Studio over the next few weeks, according to the company."
YouTube opened a pilot program inviting some previously banned creators to apply for new channels. The program targets creators whose channels were terminated under policies the platform has since abandoned, while excluding bans for copyright infringement and for abuse or off-platform violence. Eligible creators will receive an option in YouTube Studio to request a fresh channel over the coming weeks. If approved, reinstated creators can create a new channel from scratch, subject to Community Guidelines and other policies. The company framed the effort as a limited pilot and separately sent a conciliatory letter to Rep. Jim Jordan amid pressure over alleged conservative viewpoint censorship.
