Ranveer Allahbadia's YT Channel Deleted Says "Is This The End of My Career?"
YouTuber Ranveer Allahabadia’s channel was deleted and replaced by the old videos of Trump and Elon Musk—the second incident after the Supreme Court’s channel breach.
Youtuber Ranveer Allahabadia fell prey to a cyber attack on 26th September when hackers accessed his YouTube account and deleted all the videos. His popular channel called BeerBiceps had podcasts from popular people such as artists and people working for special services. The channel names were changed to “@Elon.trump.tesla_live2024” and "@Tesla.event.trump_2024" before deleting the videos.
Similar attacks were seen in the past where hackers gained control of the Supreme Court’s live stream, creating big cyber security concerns. Allahabadia’s video could not be retrieved and showed old videos of Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
YouTube did not show any videos when searching for BeerBiceps videos. The pop-up message from YouTube said that the videos were deleted because of a violation of community guidelines. Moreover, a text saying "This page isn't available. Sorry about that. Try searching for something else,"
Allahabdia was in Singapore when he was informed about the breach. It was almost a day later when he got to know about the cyber attack. He jokingly posted a picture of his meal on Instagram with a caption where he spoke about celebrating the cyber attack. He wrote "Celebrating my two main channels being hacked with my favourite food. Vegan burgers. Death of BeerBiceps met with Death of diet,"
In another Instagram post he was seen wearing an eye mask and wrote a caption “Is this the end of my career? Was nice knowing you all”. Ranveer had popular videos with Kareena Kapoor Khan and Akshay Kumar and many more where they had a deep conversation regarding health and daily practices. His channel gained popularity over the past few years as he interviewed many high-profile people.
