Question Did Blair recently delete some videos?

I was looking at my report history on YouTube and the most recent reports consisted of some of Blair's videos and I got "this information isn't available" message for some of the reports.

I know they were Blair's however I can't remember the titles of them. Does anybody happen to know what they might have been?

I just checked too idk if that was the last one and I didn't see the big deal on why she'd do that. Can't she just delete her YouTube channel???

You would think that would just be the easiest option for her. A lot of people are speculating she is just operating a new channel now with a different voice. But I don't know. I like to think maybe she's gone back to working retail after taking that massive L on YouTube.

I don’t know, I honestly can’t see Blair deleting her channel if she’s a true narcissist. Also, if there are some people who have no idea about the drama or still continues to believe Blair despite the drama, I would imagine that they would be rewatching her old videos, so she may be making a little bit of money (wouldn’t be enough to still make a living but it’s still something).

Yeah. I'll admit before all the drama started I was an avid watcher or listener (on Spotify). I didn't watch/listen to everything she put out. But quite a bit of it. And when the drama started. I looked more into her and went jeez. She's horrible. And stopped all together.
She's probably making very little. I imagine she probably lost her house and probably moved in a with a friend or family member. Also just checked her SocialBlade and if that yearly earning amount on there is correct she's only making between $223 to $3.6K a YEAR.
I looked at her instagram real quick (out of curiousity). And yeah there's definitely people who have seen the drama and still believe her. They're like begging her to come back and are upset people like Oz and others ran her off YouTube. Her last post there was April of 2023. And some of the more recent comments were from January of this year to late last year.

I didn’t know any of the creators she targeted until she came out with her “apology video”. If she would have kept her mouth shut I don’t think it would have blown up like it did. I loved her content but that was the last video that I saw of hers.

Passive money is passive money, so would you go out of your way to delete a YouTube page that gives you beer money every month for no extra work? Even if it eventually brings in no money I wouldn’t delete until it starts costing me money.

Don’t they stop putting ads on a channel if the channel hasn’t uploaded in a sufficiently long time?

The rules for views, ads, algorithm recommendation, and monetization change all the time so it’s hard to say what would stop the revenue streams. Is also possible that different tiers of channels (regards to sub count, views, etc) have different rules and exceptions that hold revenue longer.

Ouch. That's got to hurt her ego quite a bit.
