A huge thank you to all of you who tell me when you spot someone having trouble in the community, together we're making YouTube much better!
I reported this very obvious scam video ad to YouTube and they refused to remove it because they can't 'verify it's fake'.
Looks like @TeamYouTube would rather profit from scamming children than keep the platform safe.
They refused to take this one down as well 🤦♂️
Some use @Ninja in the thumbnails...
Many use @OMGitsAliA and other popular creators
bet they wouldn't be very happy with you allowing this @TeamYouTube

Dear YouTube Community,
As you know, yesterday was an incredibly difficult day for our teams in San Bruno and around the world. Thank you so much for your concern and support.
All of us working here at YouTube are very grateful for this amazing community.

There are no words to describe the tragedy that occurred today. @SusanWojcicki & I are focused on supporting our employees & the @YouTube community through this difficult time together. Thank you to the police & first responders for their efforts, and to all for msgs of support.

Active shooter at YouTube HQ. Heard shots and saw people running while at my desk. Now barricaded inside a room with coworkers.
New YouTube Guidelines mean people like Logan Paul may be removed from video recommendations, monetization, support and more...

In response to Logan Paul’s recent pattern of behavior, we’ve temporarily suspended ads on his channels.

Thank you @TrustedFlagger. I went from channel termination back to 100% good standing. YouTube is still looking into the evidence I’ve provided on people maliciously flagging my videos causing this problem in the 1st place. I know who’s behind this. Filming my video. FINALLY!!

Tide Pod videos back up, @TrustedFlagger is my community strike fairy godmother ❤️
~90% of monetised channels will be kicked from the #YouTubePartnerProgram
YouTube has thrived from allowing everyone to make a bit of money.
The malicious users will STILL get through
”This is like a farmer who only waters seeds after they grow. It doesn't work like that.”
4000 hours in minutes = 240,000 - if we estimate average video retention is 3 minutes, that would make the new requirement around 80,000 views. This is an 8 fold increase. xitter.cf/TrustedFlagger/status/…
Official YouTube Update: to monetize videos on YouTube you now need 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours watch time
