I wouldn't be surprised if google/YouTube just bans all VPN IPs. They already make you sign in lately if your IP range has been "shadow banned."

Imgur bans my IP from a Digital Ocean droplet of my own build. Just sayin', they're not only operating from known IP ranges.

It happens if there's a lot of traffic from the same IP, happened to me when I first imported my subscriptions into smart tube on my tv after I cancelled YouTube premium when they jacked up the price. Was just a temporary ban though.
