Their videos got removed from LBRY as well: https://old.reddit.com/r/india/comments/jsuows/all_my_videos... I had no surprise when I heard youtube suspended him. But I'm very dissapointed that a platform like LBRY, marketing itself as a censorship-resistant youtube alternative(https://lbry.com/faq/censorship-resistance) deleted a whole bunch of videos which were clearly fair use and for public good.

I still can't figure out how they got lbry to remove the videos.

They just DMCA'd them. Lbry then changed the listing. You can go get everything from the blockchain if you put in the work. They just made it so you have to put in the work.

This is usually the case with most of these censorship resistant things. They have to comply with the law so they can never live up to the dream.

That is correct, we got a valid looking DMCA that was later disputed by the channel owner. It was unblocked. Then today, he deleted the channel and I haven't heard from him otherwise, so I'm not sure what's up.

Maybe he got frustrated with even LBRY being DMCAed. I know I would.

When was the channel unblocked? It is disheartening to know that a company was able to silence legitimate criticism on all major platforms and even on places like LBRY.
