YouTube has become the latest organisation to distance itself from Dr Disresespect after he partly admitted to the allegations brought by a former Twitch employee suggesting he was sexting minors.
After getting banned from Twitch, Doc set up shop on YouTube and was able to hit the ground running thanks to his legion of fans. His transition to the Google-owned platform was as smooth as it could be and he became one of the top streamers on YouTube in little to no time.
However, the allegations forced Doc to come out and admit what happened all those years ago which sent a shockwave through the community. The consequences involved him taking an indefinite hiatus along with losing out on several sponsorships and collaborations and now YouTube has removed their monetization features.
Doc joined YouTube but did not have an exclusive streaming contract in place like some of the other Streamers who left the Amazon-owned streaming platform to come here. Fans have reported their channel memberships getting paused and the “Join” button is nowhere to be seen on the channel.
It would be safe to assume that any ties between YouTube and Doc have been severed and it is unlikely that his content will be monetized upon his return should he choose to make a comeback.
