She's been identified.

Nasim the Persian Azeri female vegan bodybuilder, also animal rights activist promoting healthy and humane living. Nasim produced and launched the first Persian TV commercial and music video (Do You Dare) regarding animal rights and veganism through international Iranian satellite Television in 2010, read the About section on her YouTube channel.

Her YouTube channel has been deleted. She had more than 5,000 subscribers, and her videos had been viewed more than one million times.


Okay, the motive makes sense. I'm not saying what she did here is right, but Life Rule #24 states that "YOU DO NOT MESS WITH SOMEONE'S INCOME". That is asking for trouble. I've seen my coworker make a nasty nonthreat because our other coworker was taking her sweet time on delivering his share of the moneypot. Just last week, my mom had a big argument with a guy my dad gave contract work for because he wanted his money (to be fair, their originally gave him a cheque and he wanted cash, it was Sunday and he was drinking). Some 40-60 years back, when you shake your hand on something over money, you commit to your word or you'll be ostracized from the community. In this case, she built a business on her platform, only to have it completely taken away from her. That's a prime situation to make someone desperate.

Normally, I'd agree that shooters should have their identities hidden for these events, but in this case, this is worth discussing because lives are on the line, both at Youtube and the lives of the people who use the platform as their main source of income. What's unfortunate is that there's barely any human to human interactions between Youtube and the users (which is expected given how massively popular it is), so people who make the decisions to filter out X video types might be a bit ignorant on how these filters impacts their users and how wide reaching they could unintentionally be.
