Why might YouTube turn off comments?
Comments on some videos may be turned off by YouTube for safety reasons, like to protect minors or for other safety violations. We know that comments are important to creators and viewers alike, but we also take the safety of minors and other vulnerable groups seriously. Sometimes we may turn off comments on content, even if that content doesn't violate our guidelines. We do this to protect vulnerable creators or audiences.
