Entertainment News: Prominent YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia, widely known for his channel BeerBiceps, has fallen victim to a cyberattack that took over both of his YouTube channels. Hackers renamed the channels to "@Elon.trump.tesla_live2024" and "@Tesla.event.trump_2024" before deleting all the videos, including Allahbadia’s popular interviews and podcasts. The attack closely mirrors the recent hacking of the Supreme Court’s YouTube channel.

Hackers post old Trump and Musk videos

After wiping out all of Allahbadia’s original content, the attackers uploaded old live streams featuring Donald Trump and Elon Musk. The malicious activity led to the removal of both channels from YouTube for violating the platform’s policies. When users searched for the channels, they were greeted with a message stating, "This page isn't available. Sorry about that." As of now, both channels have been completely removed from search results. YouTube confirmed the removal of the hacked channels due to policy violations. A message displayed when trying to access them read: "This page isn't available. Sorry about that. Try searching for something else."

Ranveer Allahbadia’s response

Allahbadia, who was in Singapore at the time of the attack, took a lighthearted approach to the situation. In an Instagram story, he posted a photo of his meal and humorously remarked, "Celebrating my two main channels being hacked with my favorite food. Vegan burgers. Death of BeerBiceps met with Death of diet."

In another post, wearing a cartoon cat-eye mask, he joked, "Is this the end of my YouTube career? Was nice knowing you all." Followers of Allahbadia believe YouTube will restore his channels. Many expressed confidence, with one commenting, "Have full faith in YouTube to help us retrieve the hacked channels."
