Today 2 videos that I know of got removed from YouTube. Probably a lot more.

They have been boosted with low retention views from facebook.

Anyone else who got their video removed today?

I got a couple of mine removed today as well

I got one removed because some bastard flagged it multiple times. I also got another removed by YT for some crap reason

Youtube does this to look like they're doing something.

These videos make them money AND add to the popularity-image of the site. I wouldn't doubt there's a guy being paid to randomly shut down videos for the heck of it.

From what I know is depending on how it is flagged you can get this email.
Then again I have only experienced with clients using IM videos.

Were the videos with "legitimate" content?
