The source channel was removed, and 980 videos stopped resolving (October 23, 2026)
The YouTube channel every video in this dataset was transcribed from is no longer available, and the links on this site that pointed at it no longer resolve.
Each of the 980 catalogued videos was re-checked individually rather than sampled. None of them resolves, and neither does the channel itself. YouTube's own basis for removing it is not part of any record this project can verify, so none is asserted here.
What this does not change: the quotations. Every statement on this site was transcribed into the project's own research archive at the time it was catalogued, and all 2,369 of them remain tied to the archived transcript they were taken from. The timestamps, dates, tiers and factor codings are unaffected. What is lost is the reader's ability to open the source and watch it, which until now was how any quote on this site could be checked.
Where a quote can still be watched, it now says so. Seventy-four statements appear in a compilation this project published on its own channel in September 2026, and those links have been repointed at it, at the same moment in the same words. The remaining 2,295 statements now carry the transcript as their stated source instead of a link that would fail. Source URLs have been kept in the data as the historical identifier of each video even though they no longer open.
Note
A platform removing a channel is not a court action. It is not a finding about this litigant, it is not evidence in any of the cases tracked here, and it does not bear on whether any claim in them is right or wrong. It is recorded on this site for one reason only: it changed where this site's quotations can be checked, and a reader is entitled to know that.
The project's position on the quotations themselves is unchanged. They were verbatim transcriptions when they were made and they still are, but a reader can no longer confirm that against the original for all but 74 of them. Statements that can still be watched are marked as such; the rest name the archive instead. No court in the case records tracked by this project has declared Frank Tufano a vexatious litigant.
