Jim Sterling (who has several videos covering KZfaq's ineptitude ) also has a good video related to COPPA. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b7VyesmTuNHDeHk.html

What gets me is this...they could just use KZfaq Kids, which is specifically for Kids...why attack KZfaq for something they can't control?

Thanks for staying with me!

Bull Session your welcome man

Please keep supporting and sharing Paul's videos with your friends! He makes amazing content for those of us who grew up with all these shows. He quickly became my favourite KZfaqr this year.

@CW Excuse me? Are you blaming me for expecting the worst? You must have seen how KZfaq's bots mislabel and mishandle copyright; what makes you think it can handle something as nuanced as adult commentary on "children's" media?

@CW You're an extremely rude, assuming and condescending individual. 1. This isn't like the copyright strike system (which is thoroughly broken) where there's a _chance_ at fighting back. If youtube's bots decide that your content is aimed at kids--and it will--you will be effectively silenced on the platform. Remember, not even subscribers will be notified of when the accused upload. And before you say "well sue," let me put this into perspective. A few years ago, Jim Sterling was sued for 15 million dollars by a shady (and now defunct) game studio called Digital Homicide. At the time, Jim was around 700k subs and making 11k a month via patreon and he *struggled* to afford a lawyer and most likely couldn't proceed all the way to trial had the Romaine brothers not completely botched their own case by representing themselves and screwing up every bit of the process. (You can learn more about that, here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p7ldf7unzd-VdKM.html ) Why did they do this? Because they couldn't afford a lawyer, unlike Jim. This is the case for anyone/everyone who's not making 10k a month via patreon and hell, some have to acquit or settle due to that not even being enough. 2. According to some sources, the reason why KZfaq is willing to take this hit is because it's the less lethal option for their bank accounts. They'd rather all hobbyists leave than to put in a proper age gating system, because the later is going to greatly affect their bottom line. So no, it's not going to kill itself. The majority of youtube is aimed at drama channels, reality tv channels like the Paul brothers and others. Hell, kicking kids off this platform is just as financially suicidal because of people like Pewd's and aforementioned Paul brothers, directly aim their content at kids. It's gotten to the point where Pewd's now refers to his army as the "19 year old army" when it was previously the "9 year old army." 3. How in gods name are we supposed to fight back against this aside from a twitter campaign and angry letters that youtube will ignore because of their projectionists data saying this is the safer, more profitable option? 4. _Other platform???_ Dude, there have been dozens upon dozens who've tried doing what youtube has done and they're all extinct. I bet you can't even name one aside from vid.me. That's how much of a monopoly youtube has on the video sharing market.

@CW I didn't take offense so much as I called you out on your bullshit. There's a difference. Why don't you learn to take some criticism on your behavior instead of interpreting it as a personal attack? Way to ignore my facts, btw. _"Ah, you are a Steven Universe fan. That explains why you take offense at everything. Snowflake. Muted. :)"_ Stop projecting and learn to hit above the belt. I didn't attack anything you happened to like on your channel but you had nothing to insult so I guess you felt the need to go digging into mine; how sad.

Thank you :) Definitely doing '03 Clonies; we'll see where it goes from there!

Thank you, and thanks for sticking with me!

@@BullSession I said it on another comment. You became my favourite KZfaqr this year. I've shared every video with as many of my friends that I knew watched these shows and movies. You make great content and it's always fun to watch. Not only funny but educational.

That means a lot to me. Thanks a bunch :)

Lol I wish. That would be much tastier, and less frightening.

Toronto, Ontario. Yes one of the few silver linings with this development. Adult geared content may start to be more monetizable again.

Yup

That's awesome man! I'm from Toronto myself! Discovered you earlier this year and have been loving your content! I'll keep watching for as long as you keep making.

Thanks :) Go Raps!
