well as far as i know only one video has been affected (my vlog 10) which at the time was the best vlog i had made ( i make much better stuff now)
 
What is the general outlay/upkeep for it?
You can get free ones with limited bandwidth and features, and I believe about $3-$15/month depending on term and features.[DOUBLEPOST=1512045614,1512045404][/DOUBLEPOST]
I don't know what Google uses. But pretty much you can be tracked in so many ways. Your identity can be associated with your IP. Or the Mac address on the hardware in your computer (kind of like a cars VIN). And you have Gmail accounts associated with those things. If you ever signed into Google account using the same ip or Mac address. Even AdSense does a pretty good job making sure you only create one AdSense account for all of your YouTube accounts.

If you want to create a new identity you probably need to really create new identity. New PC, new address, new Google accounts, new bank account all of these things that do not have prior associations with each other.

I Don't know If YT looks at all this when flagging channels. Maybe not necessary to go so far to create new channel. But lots of things to consider about this tracking stuff. Google could associate your identity through your phone. They would know if you are accessing your new channel from the same GPS location where you used to access your old channel. And then create an association that way. They probably don't go that far. But it can be done.

I think we're all ok to open additional channels. It's the same reason they are not community striking (except those 50 removed channels).
It's more for the spammers/illegal reuploaders of vlad and other content - I would think their adsense should get disabled. For them to get back on with adsense, they would need a new identity pretty much as you say, or use their grandma's... they are the ones who pose the threat going forward - they are the ones who are most likely to reupload all the banned elsa and spider videos and keep causing trouble.

My interest in the VPN is I read an article today about how companies gather so much stuff from you by recording your actions when visiting their website, even stuff you type then alter or delete, your mouse movements, they can even get to your clipboard if you press ctrl-v by accident over their browser session.
 
I have a few videos where the kids reference "I farted", "I have to pee", "I have to poo", or "what the heck". In the closed caption transcripts, I've even written those references in. As an experiment, I'll leave those in because I've got nothing to lose since my channel is so small but so far, none of my videos have been demonetized. I'll post if that changes.

My guess, channels with more than x views or x subscribers are being scrutinized over and dropped the hammer on and us small fry will get evaluated later since we're insignificant.

Wow. I don't know whether to be more amazed by the information or by the production value of that guy's channel!
