I have never streamed before, nor have I ever had a YouNow account. Today, I attempted to create an account just to be able to follow one of my favorite YouTubers, AVILSD (https://twitter.com/MDMA), because he's had both of his YouTube channels banned this week.
I clicked on his link to view his stream on YouNow which I wasn't allowed to do without having an account. So I clicked to create and account using my Twitter account and was IMMEDIATELY banned upon account creation. It seems as though Google's reach is far beyond its subsidiaries.
