They'll probably clarify and lift some of the conditions later with enough outcry like when Hickok's account went poof.

But yeah, at the moment this is pretty fuckin cucky of them.

Here's a decent video summing up the main projected effects of this policy change.

There is, but it’s shit. It relies on users reporting videos. There needs to be something more comprehensive than that. There’s hours of stuff I would let my kids watch on YT. But there’s days and weeks worth of stuff I wouldn’t approve of. That’s why I don’t let them look unsupervised. I do the same for Hulu. In fact my kids look at neither.

If this signals a sea change in what is presented, I am on board. I don’t care if Das wants to see another alt-righter blow through $1,000 worth of ammo. I don’t really want to see that and I am actively against my children seeing it.

Do you let your kids see that weirdo shit where people dress up as Spider-Man and the Joker and have anal sex and use needles on each other?

Of course. How do you suggest kids be raised?

Moving past the absurd, I monitor everything they watch. I don’t normalize violence by allowing them to see it. If, when they are at an appropriate age, I decide to allow them free run of the internet, they can choose the entertainment of their choice. Until then, I have strict rules on what they see.

I mean that entirely comes down to parenting. No sense filtering everyone's content for the sake of the politically-based parenting decisions of a few.

Yeah there probably should be a G-rated Youtube option like Netflix has (if there's not already).

What about those videos of people dressing up as Disney characters and doing sexual things to each other and are somehow targeted towards kids? Didn't people crack down on those and ended up finding links to some pedophile/child trafficking shit from Asia?

Yeah, screw a private company for not wanting people to use its platform to sell and advertise guns or instruct others how to modify and build them! Fucking cucks am I right or what??

It's going to affect even completely mild channels like Forgotten Weapons though.

It might affect them but I don't see how it's guaranteed.

It pretty much is guaranteed. The algorithm based methods GoogleTube uses always fucks over any videos that seem even vaguely related to whatever is being targeted.

Do we know if it will be algorithms deciding this though? You can also still appeal.

In adittion to the already present algorithms for demonitization, I think I read that the firearms specific restrictions are gonna be based off of community led moderation through flagging and the like, which sounds like an even worse idea that's more exploitable.

Double edged sword man, seeing a gun in action could be the best way to see if it matches a persons needs, be it for defence or hunting, and why shouldnt people have access to information on how to rebuild a gun they purchased, if you want someone to keep their gun well maintained, so it doesnt jam or backfire why shouldnt someone have access to that information?

Millions of law abiding gun owners are once again getting punished to the causes of a few, and yet again playing the guardian for parents who should be doing their job properly.

Youtube built itself on being a community board for people to share things, it's too coped up in it's money lust and forgetting about what actually got it there in the first place, the people. Won't be long before people find somewhere else.

'Guns are bad' is the media Boogieman at the moment, so of course theyre going to mass ban and not case by case, once again, thinking about that money. They want to be family friendly and show some asshat with a dead guy, instead of showing your average joe how to reload his gun properly.

I hear some gun channels have just moved to Facebook or Pornhub.

Imagine that. You'd think liveleak would be a good alternative.
