Google has prepared a new tool for the YouTube video platform that will guide eligible creators in recovering their ‘hacked’ accounts and in strengthening their security.
The new troubleshooting tool is presented as an assistant for recovering a content creator’s channel, which will be guided through a series of questions in a conversational format.
With this ‘chatbot’, which is available on the help page for ‘Recovering a hacked YouTube channel’ in English, the account’s security will be reinforced and the changes made by the intruder will be undone.
However, some tools that are integrated into this chat are initially available only to eligible creators, Google has warned on the YouTube Help blog, although the intention is to make them available to everyone.
