Renowned YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia , who runs the popular channel BeerBiceps , has suffered a cyber attack resulting in the loss of both his YouTube channels .
The attackers changed the names of his channels to “@Elon.trump.tesla_live2024” and “@Tesla.event.trump_2024” before wiping all of his video content . This incident bears a striking similarity to the recent hacking of the Supreme Court's YouTube channel.
After gaining control, the hackers deleted all of his podcasts and interviews, replacing them with old videos of live streams featuring Donald Trump and Elon Musk .

Upon searching for the channels, viewers encountered a message explaining that the channels were removed due to a violation of YouTube’s policies. Additionally, another message displayed, “This page isn’t available. Sorry about that. Try searching for something else.”
