They are starting to delete the data associated to Google accounts that have not signed in in several years. This includes their YouTube videos. I have started downloading the videos from creators that have passed that I still wish to watch.

That's interesting. My girlfriends old cat videos from over a decade ago are still there. She hasn't logged into the account for years and years.

What happens to videos of people who are no longer alive? Does Google expect a channel to be maintained in perpetuity?

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
