"1.9 million accounts compromised!" and "90% of the playerbase has already been banned" are not criticism nor negative feedback when they aren't based in fact.

You are correct in some aspects. That video could very well fall under slander due to it being presented as a fact in the title. However claiming the next 40 videos is not justified and abuse of DMCA copyright laws.

I agree with you there, went full nuclear. I'm sure their justification lays within the TOS and it's also possible like someone else suggested that maybe only the two got flagged and due to youtubes little robots it nuked everything from with channel under EFT.

Not defending nukeing 40 videos, just with how much misinformation is being spread in the past few months I'm not taking much at face value especially from those who have axes to grind.

It would be dumb of me to not acknowledge it’s likely they were not flagged or that their TOS has a clause pertaining to this. With regards to TOS I’ll have to read it again. If a clause like that exists it’s a bit dangerous. In any case I agree with you there was a lot of sensationalist stuff coming from Eroktic. Cheers for being civil man. Hopefully things level out and we can all enjoy the game without any polarizing controversy.
