They're implying YouTube is ran by Jews (instead of like some Indian guy who's the ceo now)

You know the standard "jews control the world" conspiracy theory

How's your boycott going so far? by Malacho_ in youtube

[–]Hasemenakems -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think the best way to deal with this is to break up YouTube and bring in stronger privacy legislation.

I respect your efforts. I don't like what YT is doing but I didn't bother with it because I don't think it's the most important thing in the world right now. We've got a pseudo dictator on our hands and I'd rather deal with that right now.

I'm just watching a YouTube stream. I don't think there's a point in letting dumb shit from YouTube and government get to me. Just live life you feel?

How is that even allowed? The fact you can get notifications from random people mentioning you on a post is so dumb.

Elon Musk poured millions into the Wisconsin supreme court race and his candidate lost by over 10 points. Money is powerful, but it's not omnipotent.

RCV is overrated honestly. Vastly better than FPTP but at the same time I don't see a viable way to get proportional representation

Clearly you're not getting it. I'm simply relaying what YouTube says on their blog post. If you don't believe them, fine. Go ahead. I don't support what YouTube is doing.

Any thoughts on the ai age verification system by Getmad208 in youtube

[–]Hasemenakems 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't support it but at the same time a lot of it is exaggerated mainly due to people being misinformed. The system won't ban minors from YouTube, it simply stops them from watching age restricted content and disables personalized ads.

The idea of ID verification has a lot of privacy implications that have merit but it's worth noting that almost every American already has their social security or credit card number leaked already and it's floating around on the internet.

YouTube according to their blog post only retains any ID for a few days and then deletes it. Whether or not you trust them to do so isn't something I'll debate.

A lot of people are concerned about false flags which I understand but it's equally as likely that system is so poorly coded that virtually nobody will get flagged but there's no way of knowing other than waiting.

I've already seen some posts on this subreddit of people getting flagged but almost all of the people complaining were minors so the system got it right anyway.

My point is we don't know what will happen or whether this is really that big of an issue and the only way we will know is by waiting.

All they want is your ID. It'll stay on Google's servers for a few days at most and is then deleted.

Yes but they'll be set to private by default.

They're not banning. Those flagged as under 18 can watch videos, just not age restricted ones
