YouTube said it's also going to give any users that upload Tide Pod challenge videos a strike for violating the company's content rules. If an account gets three strikes within a three-month period, it's removed from the site.
Facebook has also started removing the videos.
The challenge has pushed Tide to put out marketing videos that state the obvious: Eating Tide Pods is "a BAD IDEA."
