Holy shit

>>74994774
kek

>>74994774
Yes. It's kind of remarkable

>>74994774
They're women so

>>74994774
How do you even do this? There's so many things that have to line up for this to happen

>>74994774
Well that sucks.

Usually file journal software can get that back, if basic system recover can't.

>>74994774
A vast majority are tech illiterate. They barely know how to use obs, they can't be asked to learn how to keep themselves safe on the internet, if anything on their computer runs slow they would smack the monitor. Part of the problem is because they are mostly women, part of the problem is that they are most likely young, and part of the reason js that they likely don't care enough to learn.

>>74994896
Delete, yes. Files too large for recycle bin, yes. That's about it.

Skip part two if you're used to using shift+delete, though I figure if she was that tech savvy she'd know there's ways to recover it as well.

>>74994896
Was probably cleaning folders and accidentally selected her vtubing folder too. I also always shift+delete so I never use the recycle bin. Apparently she never made backups on a google drive or something either
This is why you archive everything on your onedrive folks

>>74994774
Do people know that cloud storage is like 5 to 10 bucks a month
Or a terra byte external hardrive is like 25 bucks

>>74994896
Happened to Suisex as well.
You'd think they'd have their livelihood backed up like 7 times.
In a USB, in two external drives, in two cloud services, in the emails from the artists, and on Discord.

>>74994896
In a more understandable version of this, I had years worth of data wiped clean by an incompetent IT department that "updated" my machine by installing a new operating system onto the wrong drive.

Of course, I was able to recover a significant amount of older data with recovery software (the exact kind this chuuba would likely be able to get a majority of her assets back with) but not all of it, especially recent files.

>>74995048
Mails? Discord? External SSDs? Even if you're allergic to shit like onedrive you have plenty of options.

>>74995048
>onedrive
Never trust cloud storage, get an external and keep shit you care about on it.

>>74994930
Do they even know how computer file system works?

>>74995052
It's dirt cheap. If you work with any of the Microsoft stuff you get onedrive with MS360.
Google Drive is also very cheap, Dropbox is a bit more expensive but if you work with many people it's worth it.
There's no excuse.

>>74995178
this, but two of them so you can store one at some other place in case your house burns down

>>74995178
I'd rather trust cloud storage since programs and shit dont allow you to use them (fucking obviously) meaning you MUST have 2 of those folders, 1 on your pc and 1 archived to avoid shit like OP

>>74995178
most USBs today have a shitton of storage space and are inexpensive and easy to keep safe.

>>74994774
Holy fuck. And she even did a crash course or a tweet chain or whatever on how to be a content creator. Number one rule: back your shit up.
Anyway Hexa is probably here. Maybe there's some way to retrieve your shit even after you deleted it.

>>74995048
I don't how tech illiterate I should feel about the fact that I just learned of Shift+Delete with this post.

Should've backed it up like most people do with their important things they use for work.

>>74994896
Hey, there was that one Nijisanji guy who erase all their work in Minecraft that one time.

>>74994774
wonder if her rigger still has a copy of the model

>>74994774
should have ask google. I remember deleting my porn collection when I had postnut clarity, but I managed to recover them using those free software online

>>74994774
>hexa
fat and retarded wow

>>74995342
>Maybe there's some way to retrieve your shit even after you deleted it.
There always is, as long as you do it quickly. Just because data isn't sitting in your Recycle Bin doesn't mean it isn't still sitting on the drive waiting to be overwritten.

>>74995592
She already overwrote it

>>74995592
She tried and said 90% of them got overwritten

...she kept everything on the fucking desktop.

>>74995455
He bombed it to stop people from noticing his milf gf was building on his account.

>>74994774
She's gonna need some recovery soft, decade ago, they can only run at boot level and cost money, alternative would be to send hard drive to a data recovery service and pay a couple of hundred dollars.

>>74995628
What a fucking retard

>>74995628
Final destination but instead of people dying it's files getting deleted

>>74995628
Keeping your entire livelihood on the desktop without any backups... why...

>>74995628
>kept everything essential to her career on the desktop
>deletes it all before checking it's been backed up
>just click-drags everything out of her recycle bin in panic without even looking for the specific folder in question

Guys, I don't know about this one...

>>74995628
> please stop being mean
calling a tech illiterate 'tech iliterate' is not being mean. It is what it is. Let this be a lesson for her and everyone to have fucking backups in the cloud and external drives.

>>74995628
>bitching
Were they really or just trying to offer help in her replies?
>kept it all on the desktop
holy fuck, is she a zoomer who can't into file explorer or something?

>>74995628

>Tried every recovery program under the sun

No she didn't

>>74995738
On the upside, I had never head of this girl befor,e This incident got her more popularity than all of her streams together.

>>74995628
Sounds like she just doesn't want to stream anymore.

>>74994930
At this rate, in 50 years computers will be viewed by the masses as literal magic and the few who know how to use them will be seen as wizards

>>74995628
Kek what a fucking retard
That's what she gets for being a bitch

>>74994774
backups, system images, cloud storage, hello??????????????

>>74995628
I guess she did it for immediacy of use, but always make sure to double check if the backups exist before deleting shit.

>>74995628

>>74995072
She was giving her PC to her sister and formated the drive before backing up. Having that kind of stuff on an USB is probably bad, they will just lose it. In Suiseis case it's also corpo work related and she probably isn't allowed to copy it.

>>74995628
she needs an IT bf

>>74995628
Just redownload from emails/Discord DMs? The models and assets got sent to somewhere. This is getting fishy. Your shit gets backed up for you nowadays in some way without you even being conscious of it.

>>74994774

School started using Google PCs instead of Windows based ones, not like Windows isn't trying to get on the app train.

Since its relevant might as well post this
Google drive, objectively best for archiving. Google isnt going away ever and theres 0 chance of you ever losing any files. 15gb free storage and can pay for more
Mega.nz ,very good and reliable. 50gb free storage and can pay for more but you can also just make a 2nd account and get more that way. Can be shut down at any time so use it long term. BUT has a 5gb download daily cap forcing you to pay for premium if you want to download bigger files.
OneDrive, is basically already installed on every PC. 5gb free storage good for small files like your reaction or shitposting images

>>74996036
This and Chromebooks, which tons of schools are giving to kids these days. All of the "idiot-proofing" for these kinds of systems just produces, you know, idiots.

>>74995628
lmao

>>74995807
Yeah but I'm not sure I would want to watch someone so retarded she might kill herself at any time

>>74995628
there's not really anything wrong with the desktop part, it's just another folder. The real problem is seeing a message warning about permanent deletion and just "thinking" you have a backup instead of specifically verifying it right there before pressing ok

>>74995249

>>74995628
Something is fishy here...

Windows System Restore regularly backs up the Desktop and all the folders under it. She should not only be able to restore it, but choose from several different versions.

...and no file recovery software that I know of is going to have trouble recovering recently deleted files like that.

>>74995885

Desktop folder is part of your OS folder structure. You do NOT want to keep irreplaceable things on the same PARTITION as your OS leave alone same folder because if something goes fucky with OS your stuff is that much more likely to go with it, than if it was on a separate partition (or ideally, separate drive).

>Google drive, objectively best for archiving. Google isnt going away ever and theres 0 chance of you ever losing any files. 15gb free storage and can pay for more

Google will delete your account if you don't use it for 2 years.
Google is notorious for closing your account the moment their algorithm flags it for "suspicious activity", you get no recourse or warning.
Google has completely nonexistent support, they do not care about you and your business and will never help you get your account or data back.
They are an absolutely awful choice to use for any sort of backup and I can't count how many people I work with got burnt by their accounts being closed with no real reasons being cited and them losing access to their business emails.

I have no stories about Mega and OneDrive but I can't imagine they are all that great for archiving important data either.
You really. REALLY. should back your stuff up in a multitude of ways. Use a Google Drive, use Mega, use a OneDrive, have a section of your NAS for backups, burn some DVDs, etc, etc.
Do NOT rely on any one service to hold your entire career hostage in a case of emergency.

>>74996525
Well, that, and occasionally Windows updates like to delete everything in the Windows managed folders, such as the Desktop and My Documents.

Though it really should have saved her in this case, as System Restore should be archiving that shit, if she hadn't apparently disabled it for some reason. (Guess I've seen people do that to save space on their OS drive when it's a small SSD.)

Dunno what sort of half assed file recovery software she's using that would fail to recover recently simply deleted files like that though. Kinda wondering if she's really tried or is just determined to fail here.

It'd be funny if Europe never abandoned paganism and we entered some sort of neo-primitive age where you would worship guys like Linus Torvalds and Richard Stallman as actual gods. Economists would go to the temple of Adam Smith, the God of Economics, to perform rituals and pray for guidance etc.

>>74996727
This is one of the stupidest things I have ever read on this board, congratulations.

>>74995628
Everything she would have had commissioned (model art, rigged model, stream assets) would've been delivered to her with a file attachment or download link.

Unless she evaporated all her DMs and emails too, this shouldn't be the end of the world even if she didn't have backups.
And even if she DID do that, she can just get in contact with those people again, who are probably smart enough to back up their work.

>>74996792

Why didn't she organize and throw her important Files on an external drive or SSD? It's easy to just copy and move files. Also why do you /g/uys keep using the word tech illiterate= not a programmer? Organization isn't exclusive to tech, that's a basic skill you use in anything, like in a kitchen or job floor. Sounds like she's so lazy she went Ctrl a and drag to recycling bin.

>>74995406
Don’t be, shift delete is stupid. If you are so bothered by the extra step of emptying you bin to risk select the wrong file, you are a jackass.
An external drive to dump your stuff there regularly is always strongly suggested, that’s the lesson.

>>74998352
Wrong: phone users are never required to select a folder.
>>74998394
She wouldn't know how to do that.

I need external drives to backup my external drives...

>>74995628
>The folder is on the desktop. Not a link to the folder, the actial folder.
Are you sure this is the person who said to always have backup? This is as bad as a guy I met once that kept everything in the download folder not knowing cleaning programs consider it a “trash” fdsr and have “clean it” by default on.

>>74998574
whats wrong with having the folder on the desktop?

>>74997442
If you're working for a corpo then they should have your model on file, at the very least.
Corpos also should instruct their talents to make sure they can handle basic shit like this, but I guess most of them just don't.

>>74998472
Phones have selection modes and select all modes. They have it for messages and other files, what makes you think the don’t have it cor folders?

>>74994774

>>74997367

>This is as bad as a guy I met once that kept everything in the download folder not knowing cleaning programs consider it a “trash” fdsr and have “clean it” by default on.
Weird, I keep everything in Downloads and it's never been an issue for decades. I don't use shady ass "cleaning" tools though.

>>74994896
Try to fix shit on your PC using the dogshit guides in google and Microsoft sites and this will happen a lot of the times if you're not careful. She must've tried to do some sort of reset and accidentally deleted all of her files. This is why backups are important.

>>74996414
Students would rather learn gender theory and how to be a sigma male, schools are simply catering to customers demands.

>>74998647
Thread. The desktop is for immediate to use files and you clean/organize it constantly. I’ve had so many cases of “accidental delete” of stuff on the desktop or losing a file because you accidentally move it in a folder you delete later.
It’s lime playing minefield when your computer has nice and cozyier ways to store files an a function to create a link to desktop with a click, there is a reason that exist.

>>74998647
if OS dies you won't be able to recover it

>>74998647
Its fucking stupid as you've seen being demonstrated by the retard in the OP
If you really want to have it on your desktop then just have a shortcut to where you keep those files not actually have it there

>>74998739
Don’t. Your PC considers it a temp/dump folder. Just make another folder, stiff everything there and put it in a safer place.
It takes 30 min at worse and your PC will start caring about your files. Btw even disk cleaner of WINDOWS considers that a dump folder so you do you.

>>74995048

nta but I used to use ccleaner a lot back when I used windows. It's pretty handy to just wipe all the temp windows folders and all my browser junk files at once. Though the newer versions of that software are probably all spyware these days.

>Wrong: phone users are never required to select a folder
When dealing with APKs you have to go find it in the folder it's in. I remember the first time as a kid having to install Minecraft mods on my kid brother's phone I had go follow some instructions (which mentioned finding a folder). Same applies to moving pictures and screenshots around.

>>74995885

Pro-tip, don’t use it to clean, use it to analyze. So many times you don’t realize the shit you are letting accumulate on your pc and instead go delete stuff you would still use to make space.

It is temporarily for now if you are actually up to date and using the extended support updates. Almost no one who claims to do that has ESU updates enabled and those updates stopped last year. If you didn't have ESU, you were at risk to some pretty nasty vulnerabilities like the Bluetooth code in Windows 7 being bugged enough to be exploited to let hackers run whatever code they wanted on it.

Not him, but make a folder where then? I never thought much of using Downloads for some stuff and it never got in the way before but I would rather assume I know literally nothing if Windows is going to be this silly.

I was suspecting something like that when she claimed she couldn't recover simply deleted files and claimed that System Restore wasn't on, when it's on by default, but she got help yonder >>74997052, so...

Strange state of affairs when someone who claims to be smart enough to fuck with their model's rigging isn't smart enough to recover deleted files, put them someplace other than the desktop, or keep backups. Musta burned all the braincells on Live2D.

>>75000010

My boss at the DevOps team thought so too, before the entire confluence server and its data are hacked and encrypted. The vulnerabilities were known all over the world (even hackernews) yet he didn't do anything.

This whole Windows 7 worship bewilders me since I remember it being the brand new bad evil system that will steal your data and sell your soul

That's B2, their corpo/datahoarder solution.
Personal backup is their main product. Pay 6-7 bucks/month, and they backup (almost) everything in your PC.
No need to move your data into another folder like Dropbox.

If any real chuubas are reading this thread or just people that work with large and important files.

Look into setting up a local NAS.
There are branded options for tech illiterates like Synology that will keep your shit safe even if one of your drives fails.
Cloud storage is convenient, but it's not 100% reliable.

>>75000323
Microsoft kept patching XP until 2019, 5 years after its end of life, for critical vulnerabilities and the worship shit finally only died out this decade and it's now actually a retro OS. Expect Windows 7 to have longer legs if we're seeing a similar support period from Microsoft after ESU, will probably be like 2027-8 and die out only in the 2030s.

>>74998714
The real answer is both. You need more than 1 backup solution.
The actual IRL answer is, when you're doing it for tech-illiterate people, keep it as simple as you can.

Retarded baby. Have fun being locked out of your files if (((they))) find something they dislike about you.
Onedrive is garbage. You back up on separate physical drives. Google the 3 2 1 rule too.

Speaking of which it kind of surprises me that no major cybersec incident has happened yet to a vtuber, unless i don't know about it, as in ransomware, rat or something
I know there was this one dude who tried sending phishing emails to try and get info or whatever

>>75002054
Always good to have both. External storage in case your cloud goes down, cloud in case your house burns down.

>>74994774
Gen Z has difficulty using and comprehending file systems and making backups. I would say gen x and gen y were also like this in their 20s, but that would be a lie because computer-using gen xers and gen yers typically mastered usage of file systems by the time they were 12. Zoomers are not as bad as actual boomers, but zoomers do lack a lot of basic skills.

>>74995940
She makes more than enough money to one or two solid state external drives, backing up 1TB takes a few hours but you can leave it on while you go do something else. Plus she said she lost her model and assets she made herself, and most of the stuff she worked outside hololive. She really should have had back ups.
But it's understandable that these are women that really don't know much about PCs, Subaru felt like a hacker when she opened the command prompt, something that everyone had to use daily when using computers in the DOS era.

>>74994774

Reminder that google and microshit scan emails for cloud storage file passwords so that they can unencrypt whatever you've stored on their services, if for example youwere dumb enough to say send the password in plaintext or even "playfully coded" (they use ai to figure it out) to a family member or something so that they'd have access to a photo album or whatever.

Git is not the best solution for this.
The easiest solution to set up would just be rsync through cygwin and have another server somewhere else. Having a script that automatically rsyncs every day would basically fix this problem.
You could also robocopy to a network drive if you don't wanna mess with cygwin.
You could also simply use WORM storage for this. Might seem archaic to still use a cd but it works as an absolute last resort storage.

Cloud storage is okay and if you are that paranoid you can just encrypt everything you upload.
If you insist on using local storage as a solution (which is not bad per say), use an external drive, and a file system that makes sense for backups, like zfs or btrfs. You don't fucking use exFAT/FAT32 as a backup solution you fucking retards. Don't cry when your shit gets corrupted when you realize it just takes a bad day for your USB drive to corrupt everything it's storing.

Windows doesn't allow you to see folder contents inside Recycle Bin. If she had something like "hexa" > "Important Files" > "assets" she could not open the hexa directory to check if the other assets were inside.

Since Windows deleted big files because they were "too big" it means she might've recovered the correct directories and still lost the data.

Guys...
I think I cursed this girl somehow...
I have been watching various vtubers for years now, on and off, yet I have never memembered to a single one, have never received a gift sub for a single one, nothing.
Yet somehow, someway, I have a Hexa membership.
I saw it the other day when I was checking my email, there was a message saying I got gifted a membership.
I don't even know how I have it, I don't think I've ever watched her live. I have watched a single VOD of her with Marimari_en where the two where discussing sonic, but obviously you can't get gift subs from VODs.

The only thing I can think of is that maybe while I was asleep youtube autoplay joined me into one of her streams and I got gifted a sub....I guess...?

Either way, that's the first membership I've ever had and I only noticed I had it like 3 days ago.
Now the next time I hear about her this happens.

It's all my fucking fault.

>Everyone is tech illiterate ITT.

It doesn't matter if you deleted a file.
It doesn't matter if you shift-deleted or emptied your recycle bin.
Deleted data does not evaporate, you can still retrieve it. You would have to Wipe the data with bleachbit or similar software to actually lose it forever, and even that might take a couple of passes to get rid of everything.
The retard in the OP can simply spend like a hundred bucks and have their data recovered. It's a NOTHINGBURGER

I hate you zoomer mongrels, you are worse than 90-year-old boomers when it comes to actual tech literacy that doesn't involve your niggerphone.

>>75009814
Tell me what happens when you delete a file on your PC you retarded fuck then say the same shit again.
Go ahead and impress me.

>>75009814
Read nigger, read. She moved directories around and the OS overwrote most of the files.
>>75009914
They are not shown to the user anymore. The OS flags those blocks as writable and begins to overwrite them as soon as a file needs to be written.

>>75009814
If the data was still there, how is it not eating up hard drive space?
I've deleted multiple TB's worth of data. Are you saying that somehow those TBs of data are still somewhere on my computer?

Wow, bros, today I learned how to hack the system and have infinite HD space.

>>75010180
A lot of them are still there as long as you didn't write to disk the same amount of data. At the very least you could recover the filenames from them.

>>75010180
Deleting just flags the data as overwritable. If you're fast you can use external tools to recover the files. If you keep using your PC it'll eventually overwrite the old data.

>>74994930
>>74994774
The really irritating thing is they often laugh it off with an "it is what it is" or "too lazy tehepero" or "we're here for a good time not a long time" and then when they lose something it's PANIK mode.

>>75010270
>>75010282
I see.
Interesting, I wasn't aware that's how it worked.
Thanks for educating me.

>>75009914
In Windows, the file's metadata is updated to indicate that the space it occupies is now available, but the actual data remains on the disk until it's overwritten. This allows for recovery until the space is reused by new data. Even if new data is stored, chances are it won't overwrite a fucking Vtuber hexa, because it's TINY. You would have to fill up your entire drive to genuinely lose your "deleted" data, based on the law of large numbers alone.

tl;dr, she is a charcoal gorilla nigger RETARD, it's extremely (EXTREMELY) unlikely she lost the data, even if she's stored new data in the meantime.

>>75009814
Congrats for being a faggot who can’t read, she saud the data is corrupted.
The moron probably cleaned files to install some shit and the graveyard data got rewritten.
That is also if she doesn’t have one of those modern antiviruses who privacy protect tyou by 0ing your trash or defrags took place.

>>75010327
She said she moved directories around, that's enough to overwrite at least a small portion of the files. If that happens, the files become corrupted and unusable.

>>74995694
Is that even possible if she has an SSD and the files are physically overwritten?

>>75010174
>begins to overwrite them as soon as a file needs to be written
Correct. Good answer for the dumb anon you responded to.
No recovery software will help you with this. At best they will go through the disk and realize there might be files there, but they will be all corrupted garbage.
>>75010270
>>75010327
Retard, do you even know what an operating system does?
You would have to basically freeze your PC fucking instantly to avoid any damage. You have no idea what your PC is doing, especially fucking windows. They will use the space available to do all sorts of shit. OS optimization is all about reusing that dead storage space and optimizing the shit out of it.
You will lose your data, especially if it's small. If you have a very large deleted set of stuff, there's a chance you recover some of it. In this state, given the relatively small size of this stuff, it just takes one bad write and it's all gone.
>>75010405
You wouldn't even need to do anything. Leaving your PC on will do this alone, because an OS just does its work in the background.

>>74994774
Yes.

>Crisis averted
Be honest, was this a grift to farm viewers or legit?

>>75010325
Overwriting with blank data whenever you delete things would be slower and make your storage not last as long. It's rare that you actually need things deleted properly anyways.

>>74994774
i mean if it aint deleted from recycle bin
it should be easy.

>>74996683

>>75011099

>>75010405
>>75010497
I used to do data recovery as part of my job, and no, this is simply not the case. Granted, it was mostly FAT32 back then, as I'm an old fag, but modern file journals are even more redundant about keeping data around on your hard drive long after you've deleted it. If you've simply deleted files, they're recoverable for a good long time, especially if they're small. The system doesn't actually physically delete the data, it just flags the file as overwritable.

Now there is the mitigating factor that, if it's not an SSD, modern Windows is constantly defragging the hard drive so long as the computer is idle, which complicates things, but any recovery software worth it's salt can chase file integrity contiguously across sectors. It's probably a small SSD as otherwise I can't think of why in the hell she would turn System Restore off.

>>75010824
I've had several accounts deleted for inactivity, and have been locked out of maybe a dozen more for no discernable reason with no recourse. Google is the shittiest cloud solution there is, though I suppose still better than nothing. Physical backups are much simpler and more secure, but if it's something critical to your livelihood, you should really have both a physical backup and a cloud (other than Google), cuz shit happens.

>>75011407
Ignoring the fact that Windows is always writing to disk (logs, updates, background services) the web browser is ALWAYS writing to disk. Not only cache and web storage, but even things like YouTube are notorious to rape SSDs.

If someone deletes data accidentally, panics and opens a web browser to search for solution, watches videos and downloads installers then there is a chance the OS will overwrite data partially.

>>75011407
>I've had several accounts deleted for inactivity
Should have subscribed to someone on YouTube. It's that simple. You have nobody to blame but yourself.

>>75011571
Modern file systems always favor empty sectors first. Unless the hard drive is completely full, you can thrash caches all you want, it'll be months of regular use, if not years, before the previously occupied file space is used.

>>75007204
cry more poojeet
I will not redeem

>>75011607
Not only ones with subscriptions, but ones with days of actual Youtube videos on them. Google is a lot more prone to locking out accounts for inactivity than they let on, or for any number of other mysterious reasons.

>>75011407
idk what kind of recovery job you had, but from what I know it's mostly a gamble, and it works best if the drive in question was frozen or extracted from the system and not in use.

>>74996202
>>75000412
People suggest the external hd all the time, but for a professional setting I think a 2 bay NAS would be a cost effective option. They run <$200 these days and would allow you to automate your backups, preventing the situation where you become lax about it.

>>75012120
NAS + zfs is the way to go, really. It requires someone in the team that's not a complete moron, but it does the job 99% of the time.

>>74994774
1. Woman
2. Zoomers are becoming less tech literate than millennials

>>75012083
Trust me, there's shit on your drive from years ago that's easily recoverable, without the need for a low level scan. You gotta do some seriously weird shit before you're going to lose files you deleted the same day.

>>74995885
Gen Alpha and Z never stood a chance; as children these two gens were specifically catered to by app developers to make everything as easy as possible with the least amount of steps. Take those apps away and these kids have no clue what to do. Those two gens grew up with apps that were forced on them by parents, corpos, and society. Weep.

>>75008366
you mean Gen X, most millenials can't even get around a CLI, Gen X had to use that shit on the daily

>>74999131
Seems like the best solution if you really REALLY absolutely cannot lose these files or you're royally fucked is to have multiple backups i.e. cloud backup + another physical backup

>>75012207
Oh man, when a NAS does fails though, doesn't seem to matter what sort of raid it is, it's a royal pain to recover. I mean the data's there, but it takes goddamned forever. Took a solid week to recover one of those once.

>>75012369
Ironically it's the fault of devs (i.e. millenials) trying to make shit idiot proof for their parents that resulted in this dilemma

>>75012306
I've never delved deep into data recovery but that's mostly because I've taken good habits from the get go so I only have the word of other people I know.
>>75012415

>>74996683
>Google is notorious for closing your account the moment their algorithm flags it for "suspicious activity", you get no recourse or warning.
This couldn't be spread enough. Google wouldn't necessarily close your account, but they can flag it as suspicious for whatever fucking reason and prevent access for an indefinite period. I had one regular account randomly designated as such despite never logging in from anywhere but my desktop. Gave my recovery email as requested, nothing. And fuck giving them my phone number. So just like that, my account of 8 years was locked. I kept trying to log in over the course of a year to no avail after which I gave up. About 1.5 years later, I tried again and, lo and behold, it worked without the stupid "more information" prompt. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy I got my account back, but fuck keeping anything remotely important there after that experience.

Vtubers can't act smart. It makes their audience feel inferior and they start sperging out. If your character as vtuber is smarter than a toddler, you will never be popular.
