YouTube has removed the channels associated with “Clavicular” due to what it described as “severe or repeated violations” of its policies

The platform said the accounts were suspended and taken down for breaching its rules. The move comes shortly after the well-known influencer and streamer, associated with the so-called “lux-maxxing” community, was hospitalized last week following a suspected overdose

According to the CinemaDrame News Agency, YouTube has removed two channels belonging to the influencer “Clavicular,” known for content related to “lux-maxxing,” due to what it described as “severe or repeated violations of community guidelines.”

Brendan Peters, known as Clavicular, asked his followers on the social media platform X on Thursday to help him restore his accounts, titled “Live with Claw” and “Claw Luxmax.” In his post, he claimed the channels were deleted without warning or explanation and that their content included livestreams and free educational courses aimed at “empowering young people and helping them become the best version of themselves.”

He also stated that his team had attempted to fully comply with YouTube’s rules, including removing or blurring sensitive or inappropriate content, and requested the reinstatement of his accounts.

However, emails sent to him by YouTube explicitly cited “community guidelines violations” as the reason for the action. The messages stated that, following a review of the content, serious or repeated violations were identified, leading to the removal of the channels.

A YouTube spokesperson told media outlets that the creator’s main channel had previously been removed in November 2025 for “facilitating access to websites that violate rules on illegal or regulated goods and services,” and that the newly created channels were also terminated as unauthorized replacement accounts. Under the platform’s policies, users are not allowed to create new channels after a termination.

The incident comes just over a week after Clavicular was hospitalized following a suspected overdose. He experienced the medical emergency during a livestream in Miami and later announced on X that he had returned home. At the time, he wrote that he had been using certain substances to cope with being in public, while also acknowledging that it was not a real solution.
