YouTube Defeats Claim Over Content Removal/Demonetization–Haocheng v. YouTube

Eric Goldman

Haocheng ran several monetized channels on YouTube. He claims that the Chinese Communist Party submitted takedown demands targeting his content, which YouTube ultimately honored. He sued YouTube claiming that the content removals breached YouTube’s contract. YouTube easily wins. The plaintiff claims that YouTube removed his content without providing the promised notice and without adequate cause.
