Dr Disrespect Banned from Youtube for Streaming Copyrighted Content

Dr Disrespected has been banned from Youtube for streaming the Apple WWDC event. The Doc was on stream when he decided to tune into Apple's WWCD event on June 5. The stream came to an abrupt end as Dr Disrespect received a swift ban from Youtube.

The stream was back up and running shortly after but the streamer decided to no longer stream the event. The "Two-Time" has had a reasonably good time on Youtube after his high-profile exit from Twitch, the reason for which remains one of the greatest mysteries on the internet. The Doc has remained on Youtube since 2020 and this is only the first time he's run into trouble with the platform.

While this isn't a major violation, it was still enough for Dr Disrespect's fans into a frenzy for a good 30 minutes. The popular streamer is back on the platform and it looks like the ban was transient in nature.

Dr Disrespect's Twitch Ban Remains a Mystery, 3 Years On

Dr Disrespect, for the most part, has remained a beloved figure in the streamer community. The "Two-Time" has maintained a reputation off high-production-value streams and character work that has helped him stand apart in a deeply competitive environment.

The streamer has had a tumultuous time in the limelight, all of which was kicked off by his high-profile ban on Twitch. The company as well as Dr Disrespect have maintained radio silence with regards to why the ban took place. While there have been theories aplenty, there has been no official word on the matter.

Dr Disrespect's biggest project thus far has been his first-person shooter, Deadrop, which he claimed would rival the Call of Duty franchise. While those claims weren't out-of-character for the Doc, even the most die-hard fans of his remained positively sceptical. The game had a rough time in testing and ultimately didn't really take off in the way the streamer may have expected it to. 

Dr Disrespect continues to grow his audience on Youtube and it will be interesting to see what the next phase of content from Doc will look like. Even though Deadrop wasn't really the success story, it did succeed in establishing the precedent that the Doc isn't afraid to shoot for the moon.
