I'm seeing the ball rolling for this hoax again, so I shall tap the sign yet again

Please, PLEASE do actual research. Making people scared over something that simply isn't true helps nobody except for the person that started the rumor. https://twitter.com/NatiRivers/status/1261732411999760384

Now, I don't believe evanz111 is doing this solely for clout. I believe he's coming from an uninformed space, he doesn't really know how cyber security or Google's inner-workings... well, work!
And I don't know 100% either, but I at least have reliable sources.

If I'm shown undeniable proof that this bot is REALLY hacking YouTube channels, then I myself will go back on my word and delete my original tweet. But, I have yet to see that. There is no proof, and for the "evidence" there is, all of it is easily faked.

Look at Optimus, for example. He made fun of the hacking. But everyone thought it was real, it just shows how easy it is to fake "evidence" for this whole thing. And since Google nor YouTube have said anything or done anything about this situation yet,

Well that gives me good reason to believe there's not actually anything going on. Google may be ignorant of what goes on in their community, but security is a top priority for them. I'm sure they've already gotten wind of this drama, looked into it, and found nothing.

Remember; they're popular. They've got a reputation to uphold. If there really was a bot hacking accounts, Google would've said something. No doubt. It's been, what, a few weeks now? What does that tell you?

And you know what, I don't usually do this, but PLEASE retweet the quoted tweet at the start of this thread. RT the start of this thread too, while you're at it. I'm tired of people staying in the dark. I want people to know there's no need for panic.
