Original Note:
There are no sources that say YouTube will outright ban non-Premium users from watching HD videos. YouTube is, however, offering Premium users a "Premium HD" service which allows viewers to watch their videos in higher bitrates, so that may be where the confusion lies. https://www.theverge.com/2023/4/10/23677141/youtube-premium-subscribers-higher-quality-video-1080p
