I remember there was a bug (or intended behavior?) of people getting their accounts banned for certain kinds of mundane chat messages in live streams and I'm a little spooked that the same will happen with the recent escalation in the adblocking arms race.

    It's possible, but personally I never use my account when using youtube anymore. I just remember the channels I like and check if they've posted anything, and if something is age-gated, I just use youtube-dlp (yt-dlp) to rip the video without having to engage with google accounts.
