YouTube introduces system rewarding censorship

[Frequency]

they have no competition so they can pretty much do whatever they want

And they never will have competition because even if content creators made an alternative website, it wouldn't be lucrative because advertisers wouldn't want anything to do with it, considering that the majority of people using it would be the ones who aren't adhering to the standards that advertisers would want.

Uh, I'm not so sure what everyone is upset about. This looks like a good thing?

They aren't rewarding censorship at all. They are cleaning up their comments sections and getting rid of terrible videos. Youtube definitely needs more oversight--just not the ridiculous copyright-abuse or revenue-cutting kind.

I mean, I do find it a little corporate for my tastes. I personally prefer more egalitarian formats where everyone who isn't a moderator is on the same level. But it definitely isn't a *bad* thing.

You are aware that Youtube doesn't let you just remove any video for any reason, right? That sounds like the quickest way to get your powers revoked.

Um... you have you earn those privileges? A brand new account isn't going to be able to mass-flag 500 liberal videos...

Youtube is in bad PR already. There is no way they will tolerate mod abuse.

That's not even remotely similar. That benefits them and the 'mods' are gargantuan corporations.
