Anyone with A YouTube Channel

A few people I know have had their accounts suspended. Mainly animators. I'm presuming it's for using photographic images with copyright issues etc. So if you build up an entire channel, build subscribers etc then you tube police deem a breach of their terms you go back to ground zero? OR do they reinstate the channel once the specific breach has been removed? Answers on apost card please.

No, they and myspace are sods for that and you have no redress and often no explanation. We lost our myspace a few months back - terrible hassle.
