Sam Oh, the Vice President of Marketing at Ahrefs, recently shed light on this capability. Oh disclosed that a video posted by Ahrefs was flagged by YouTube for a rather unexpected reason. The video in question displayed a snippet from a book, and within that snippet was the name "Donald Trump.".

Following this, YouTube flagged the video under its "Election advertising in the United States" clause. Ahrefs was subsequently prompted to "Review and fix ads that violate ads policy to update the status of your campaign."
