YouTube banned on HN?

5 pointsby hxnabout 10 years ago
When I try to submit a YouTube video, I get a STOP SPAMMING message. Is YouTube banned?<p>The video I wanted to submit is of a selfmade drone with 2000kv (not mine).

Googling &quot;selfmade drone with 2000kv&quot; turned up the video that appears to be banned based on your comment.<p>Googling &quot;Quadmovr&quot; which appears prominently in the video produces a lot of SEO&#x27;d results. It wouldn&#x27;t surprise me if they&#x27;d hammered HN. Combined with the relative dormancy of your account, there&#x27;s a good chance that the account and the specific video correlate with previous problematic accounts to trigger blocking.<p>That a link to the video was posted anyway despite the request to stop spamming suggests that the heuristic may not be out of line.

I don&#x27;t know but I would be unsurprised were spammers plying their trade through youtube.<p>Is the video hosted anywhere else?
