It seems that popular streamer, Amouranth, real name Kaitlyn Siragusa is never far away from controversy and this time, it’s related to her YouTube channels (yes, plural) being deleted.
In August 2024, Amouranth was banned on YouTube over “sexual content” in particular her method of ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response). Content creators such as Amouranth on YouTube and Twitch, use certain ‘tingling’ sounds in the hope that viewers will throw money their way.
Amouranth claimed that her recent ban came without any warning and understandably, she’s not happy about that but now, her situation has gotten much worse. As reported by Dexerto, the content creator has not only had her main YouTube channel deleted but also the account she uses for a YouTube Premium subscription.
If you attempt to visit Amouranth’s main YouTube channel at the time of writing, you’re greeted by a monkey with a magnifying glass and the ‘404 Not Found’ caption “Try searching for something else.”

Venting her frustration on Twitter towards YouTube, Amouranth tweeted “You deleted my main YT channel. There were no strikes or infractions.”
“You also at the same name (in the same notice email) deleted my personal YouTube channel that I don’t make content on — it just has a YouTube Premium subscription…. What’s next, you're gonna take out my Gmail and search thereby forcing me to use Bing?”
As if things couldn't get any worse for Amouranth, the prospect of having to use the web browser Bing is a fate that no one deserves. Sources of Dexerto claim that the ban related to her main channel is because of her ASMR content.
However, it seems strange to have banned her personal channel which apparently has no content and is used for the ad-free subscription service, YouTube Premium.
Not that it will be much consolation for Amouranth, but at least she still has her Twitch (6.3 million followers) and Kick (246k followers) to fall back on while she attempts to fix her ongoing issue with YouTube.
