Hello!

New here, apologies if this is in the wrong location, I'm just stuck and not sure where to proceed.

I host a Discord Bot (multiple actually but they're duplicates of each other with different names) and everything has been great so far....until today.

One of the modules is for playing music, you simply run the command to play a track from Spotify or YT and it plays (Spotify side of it is basically using YouTube to search the song, just that it's compatible with Spotify track share links). That's how the functionality is.

The problem is today, it started telling me an error saying "Sign in to confirm you're not a bot" and "This video requires login". I spoke to some people who help support these bot modules and they advise that YouTube has banned the IP for suspicious activity. The IP being of course the one supplied by OVH.
_The suspicious activity is I'm guessing someone adding either a large amount of songs to a playlist or a lot of people using the bot for music at the same time._

I can't really order another IP due to financial issues as this appears to be the only solution but wanted to post here first to see if anyone maybe has an idea how I'd go about getting the IP supplied by OVH unbanned or clear the suspicious activity?

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
