YouTube Suspends Amouranth’s Account for “Ban Evasion” Following ASMR Channel Termination

Streaming sensation Amouranth’s choice to challenge YouTube’s ban on her ASMR channel, deemed “sexual content,”resulted in the deletion of her primary account.

On August 20, Amouranth, who streams on Kick and Twitch, announced that YouTube had unexpectedly banned her ASMR channel. The Google-owned platform later acknowledged that the reason was for “sexual content.”

Amouranth expressed surprise at this decision but maintained that she did not engage in any wrongdoing, stating, “I regret nothing.”

On September 6, Amouranth faced another shock when her main YouTube account, boasting over 1 million subscribers, was unexpectedly deleted alongside her personal channel, which she primarily uses to watch videos.

“There were no strikes or infractions. At the same time, you deleted my personal YouTube channel that I don’t create content on — it merely has a YouTube Premium subscription. What’s next? Are you going to take away my Gmail?” she expressed frustration.

Ban evasion refers to when a creator uses an alternate account to post or stream content while banned from another channel.

In this instance, Amouranth’s secondary ASMR channel was banned, restricting her ability to upload videos on her main account.

This ban is part of a pattern of similar penalties the creator has faced over the years, including multiple bans from Twitch for sexual content, notably during some contentious ASMR streams.

While the recent YouTube bans are likely to impact her income, the streamer has various other revenue sources, such as a profitable Kick deal, ownership of multiple gas stations, and numerous business ventures.
