>>23652222 I don't think it's additional verification for VPN users.
If you notice this is hitting channels (an donly channels) that recover IMMEDIATELY right back from the waiting room cull.
This could easily be just pajeets hiding the "waiting room cull" ("spam check verification") across a longer period of time.
If that's be the case it wouldn't even be the first time they try to disguise the "waiting room cull", here is Anya debut vs. Anya in January
Attempt 1: HOLD THE WHOLE CCV at zero until it's all verified, release all at once
Attempt 2: hold in increments of (let's say) 500 and release after verification, hold the next batch, release again
Attempt 3 (the recent "waiting room cull"): hole the whole waiting room, then slowly release them while holding people that entered the stream after starting and releasing and so on and so forth
Maybe they're rolling out
>Attempt 4: don't hold the waiting room, then do a bigger batch of verifications after a few minutesConsidering the type of pajeet code Youtube must be leaning on I wouldn't doubt
