Some folks have had their videos removed completely.
Some have had their earned revenue $$ wiped out.
Some have their videos still up, but the account owners no longer have admin access to their accounts. I believe I read this last is true in Prager's case.
It appears that the issue is only with a small percentage of videos posted by PragerU ("the blog that thinks it's a university," as another YouTube poster calls it), and those videos are actually in a "restricted" category meant to protect minors from some types of content, but which -- like the rest of PragerU videos -- are apparently still freely available to adult viewers.
