A tweet from Mr. Roid Rage that I will not embed on DU:

The Alex Jones channel with billions of views is frozen. We have been told it will be deleted tomorrow and all 33 thousands videos will be erased. We just set up this new page subscribe if you want to see what the SPLC wants censored...

Some more, according to YouTube:
YT DID tell Jones that advertisers reached out and asked to be removed from channel. But YT didnt tell Jones what he claims. Furthermore, YT says this isnt even how the account termination process happens (getting advance warning)
