    TLDR:

    Person was posting medically dangerous advice on youtube.

    Youtube closed their channel.

    They were upset that they could not download their misinformation and sued for recovery and damages.

    Judge: Youtube is not a backup and data storage service and has no obligation to hold copies of your material.
