No way this wasn't calculated by LTT.
Although I agree that this content should be up on YT, I wouldn’t be surprised if LLT were well aware that this was a high risk video that could get struck down.
I hate conspiratorial thinking, but LLT is likely to benefit from this attention, and they have a history prioritizing subscriber counts over getting useful information into the hands of people.
I'd bet dollars to donuts it was planned. They're all about views, sponsors, and subs. The "info" they publish is hack at best. They're entertaining at times but it's just that, entertainment, not tech news.
They have a separate channel for tech news. They also have a several hours long podcast style show on Fridays that focus on recapping the week's tech news.
They also write and shoot videos weeks ahead of publication. Day and date news just isn't the focus of the main LTT channel.
