I don't think so. The original comment says that YouTube has:

> the right to terminate and de-platform anyone's account who has been in violation of YouTube's guidelines and terms of service.

The problem here is letting automated systems, with a history of producing false-positives for content that didn't violate the Guidelines or ToS, having final say on account termination, with no concrete way to appeal - To me this is a fair criticism.

If the original comment says "the right to arbitrarily terminate and de-platform anyone's account", then I'll say that you have a point.
