But the dark side of the sharing platform has been laid bare in a report that reveals in the past three months, it has had to remove 58 million videos that were posting hateful or inappropriate content.
Catherine Archer, a lecturer at Murdoch University who specialises in social media, said it is the tip of the iceberg.
"I guess it's starting to admit the problem, but the whole point of YouTube was being able to upload a video without being a professional," she said.
"These social media platforms are, more and more, having to realise how hard it is to control the content on their channels."
YouTube said the videos removed mainly had inappropriate adult content or spam, but it did not offer much insight into how it is managing the large amount of hateful or conspiratorial videos.
A spokeswoman said the company, owned by Google, is confident a new algorithm will work to stamp out inappropriate content.
"We've always used a mix of human reviewers and technology to address violative content on our platform, and in 2017 we started applying more advanced machine-learning technology to flag content for review by our teams," she said.
"This combination of smart detection technology and highly-trained human reviewers has enabled us to consistently enforce our policies with increasing speed."
People are saying videos of their dog wandering in a backyard have been removed, videos of stationary traffic cam footage has been removed, workout routine videos have been removed, it's just seems to be a very random set of parameters surrounding the removals with no logic behind it, which makes me wonder how much FH stuff got hit.
Probably a lot of low view stuff. Its just wasted server space. It might be the classic YouTube algorithm testing on low view count videos so that they can keep improving it to remove advertiser unfriendly videos.

They sexualized Dr. Duke's big guns!

Wonder if they removed that “prank” video where a guy pretended to hang himself from ceiling fan when his mom came home she basically fainted and cried for a half an hour, then she was sobbing in the next room and he starts telling the camera that she’s ok and that she’s laughing. Tbh his channel should be taken down.
Nathaniel Hughes
I'm not sure whether this is an algorithm or a team of politically motivated youngsters exercising their command of Critical Theory, or even both, but Muffy's poodle Bananas, low viewer count or not, has a God given right to remain in the public domain for posterity. Bananas was a gal ahead of her time, and future generations ought to have known her unique charms.
God Damn you, Goolag!

Stupid has no limits . No wonder these Irish Scientologist Money Lenders use you losers like cattle.
Sure thing. I rely on tips, if you have any tips send to >>>/prepare/ (the tips thread)

It's pretty obvious what happened. That Google dude was sexually assaulting people so that means there is an environment that tolerated that there. That means that some feminist cunt is blackmailing them under the condition that they let them push this psycho agenda. Google is literally us/Israeli inteligence so they have an incentive to let basically any content on their shit so they know what the golems are doing. This shit is clearly not part of their original agenda and actually hurts it because now norms are like what the fuck. People seem to forget that the Republican and democrat parties all go to the same bilderberg child sacrifice rituals. They are just actors and any public agenda is just something to push their hidden agenda. Israel is run by conservative meat head faggots right now , racial purists, yet they push for lgbt and interracial shit / migrants because GASP con artists are professional liars. I have never seen one democrat in my entire life who's sole purpose wasn't pushing their self at anyone's expense. I have never seen one republican who's sole purpose wasn't pushing their self at anyone's expense. Being gay is fine. Lgbt is cancer. Conspiracy mindset is fine. Reddit and info wars is cancer. Wanting to "return the strength of the family " is fine. Forcing your ONE way to have a family aka pol is retarded. Niggers chinks pajeets SPICS gooks redskins etc are TERRRIBLE. AWFUL. they fucking suck. They are just large cults of the class bully. WHITES ARE JUST AS BAD THEY JUST MASTERED HIDING IT. Anti racism / anti trans has nothing to do with empathy. It's the classic domination technique where you shine a light on your enemies behaviors even if you have them to so they get in all the trouble.
So what do you do? Cut off all npc faggots. The matrix is a fucking documentary. They wanted to do it before some grassroots fuckers exposed it to control it and stop momentum. JUST LIKE THEY DID WITH TRUMP, and bernie bs tenders , and now this four year distraction omg Russians omg no not Russia omg Russians omg this is so real!
Cut these faggots the fuck off. There is still a chance to salvage something here. Money is gay. Authority is gay. Communism is gay. All these single words which try to fraudulently claim they can describe a seven billion person world are bullshit. Religion is bullshit. Jobs are gay. Work is not gay. Cults are gay. Caring about the future is no gay. Lgbt is gay. Fuckint dudes in private and leaving people alone is based and redpilled. Women suck! How the fuck are you niggers gonna complain about more genders, obviously they will suck at first but eventually there will be more than a hundred genders. In 1860 people couldn't comprehend plains. Its called evolution. Fuck this gay ass kike prison world . Kill your ego and kill these archon faggots and never say anything about it again and just move forward.
Michael Kelly
Women do generally suck but I don't think fucking them is 'gay' user. And there really are only TWO genders: male or female. We could try to artificially create more than two but its just some form of manipulation or deception. Those that enjoy that should understand this makes them queers. Doesn't matter the looks or artificial implants, hell, I don't even like women with fake breast implants, I think thats gross enough.

Hahahaha Trump is getting fucked in every hole
Hudson Jenkins
Johnny, why do you use Twitter?
Bentley Price
you keep using that word
Samuel Scott
Whilst everyone cavkles with glee I ask myself why they are so anxious to have a Pence presidency. It’s not like Trump gets the booty warrior and the Sea Hag automatically steps up to make the world a differently corrupted place.
And anyway, paying some fat whore to shut her jizzmogloblin500 after all the campaign rhetoric and fake news sideshow? The man’s had three wives, and you think having his friend stuff Stormy’s cocksucker full of hundreds is going to bring him down? Optimism is a hell of a drug.
Jordan Ross
back… sorry I was making dinner
I don't actually 'use twitter'….
not like you're thinking I do…. I don't go there unless I'm trolling someone, or checking on someone… I've used it a couple times to communicate with Ron.
Just like Facebook, I have a 'dummy' account… I only goto those places when I absolutely have to…
FUCK TWITTER
Asher Gomez
I’m told dummy accounts on social media are a requirement to pass professional scrutiny. I only gave mine up three or four years ago, which means there is likely a lot of reputation points wrecking evidents lurking around. But the joke’s on them because I joined the crips and now they can’t touch me. But neither do my wife’s more attractive friends know how funny, charming, and brilliant I can be as disembodied text. It’s about as effective as managing your student loans with IBR and trying to buy a house: hit and miss.

Nobody's suggesting the violation of federal campaign finance law will 'take him down'…
or the OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE
or that little triviality he calls 'collusion', (a stupid distractive term Giuliani came up with )
The feds don't call it 'collusion'.. They call it CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT WIRE FRAUD working in unison with Russian hackers and wikileaks to violate federal law.
then there's the other TWELVE currently ongoing federal investigations into Trump and his kids….
…..by the way……
he's already fucked… He's probably not going to be impeached, or indicted (although that's exactly what is being planned)
But he's fucked… In his ass…. in his mouth… In his ears…. and in his mangina….
My wife and I are gonna watch a movie. We're under the warm comforter in bed, and it's a cold night outside, so now that we've eaten dinner, it's time for the two of us (and our three cats) to all snuggle….

If the rule of law were still a thing in the US Cheney would have hung right next to Saddam, Bill would have been breathalized for 8yr old pussy and locked up, Obongo woulda gone down for being born in Kenya, and so on.
This is why they did everything they could to remove Joe Arpaio, and unfortunately they were successful.

what actually happened:
Tumblr did the same damn shit with an algorythem recently to kill off porn bots and proceeded to eliminate on of the only reasons people come to their site, which was porn blogs
now most people are abandoning tumblr.
this won't do it to youtube, but they're not going to learn and eventually they'll do something that will alienate people and videos will be mainstream on some other site.
Hello, alphabetnigger-bot. Friendly reminder that you and your handlers will be hanged, drawn, and quartered for your crimes against humanity.
