‘May be’? Just say it is.
Its good that theyre doing this though, hopefully this isnt a one off instance of demonetizing such things (or better yet unlisting or removing it)
I wish YouTube would just remove it. Tired of platforms being like “wow that’s awful, wanna see more?” Just get rid of it, get rid of her, get rid of the lot of them.
Whether it’s YouTube, Twitter or Reddit, all corporations that make their profits from advertising on the back of UGC have the same systemic failure in their calculus.
There’s a monetary incentive to provide a platform to hate. There isn’t one to deplatform it.
Is the profit motive the only issue here? IIRC YouTube leadership was forced to speak at congress hearings because the gov suspected them of biasing against conservative viewpoints.
Not gonna happen unless we get rid of the profit motive.
The profit motive has resulted in a number of huge problems with youtube. Quite honestly I think it’s unwise to leave such a wealth of information in a capitalist’s hands.
i’m under no pretenses Youtube is ever gonna give a fuck and do consistent things about this kind of content but it’s always fun when one of these people faces any consequences for posting it
honestly, they should either moderate it consistently or just not moderate it at all
