I'm so angry with YouTube right now!
They haven't done anything to me recently, but what pisses me off is that when people, including myself reach out to them on twitter for help, they literally don't do anything! They say that they'll help out and give them some vague advice on what to do. And then when the person in need of their help asks YouTube to elaborate, they don't say anything again after that! They purposefully leave you in the dark!!! They don't say anything more to those reaching out for their help on twitter, as if they don't care to help them! Why would they do that? Why would they not want to help their users who are struggling with hacked accounts, copyrighted strikes and shit like that!
One thing that's always angered me about YouTube is that their unreasonable strictness that every content people post be kid-friendly! So many talented animators who wanna express their creativity are limited to what they wanna post, because YouTube fears that if has too much intense action in it, it'll be too violent or inappropriate for children, which isn't fair to the animators who worked hard on their projects, and isn't fair to the audience who enjoy the animations! And what's very hypocritical is that YouTube allows so many police accounts like @MidwestSafety or @LawAndCrime to post rather disturbing footage of cops arresting people in a violent manner. Some of these videos involved distressed children thrown into the mix, or children being abused and arrested by the cops! Not only would this be disturbing content to the children on YouTube, but it's also disturbing to any sensitive viewer, including myself! So you'd think that because YouTube is so uptight about making sure that the content posted on the channel is kid-friendly, they'd remove these disturbing police videos showing kids in distress, right? WRONG! YouTube is perfectly fine with these videos being up for everyone to see! I've reported these videos multiple times and YouTube still hasn't removed them. Probably because they see an educational value to them, despite the content clearly violating their guidelines as they show kids in distress. Yet, beloved and talented YouTube animators like @Narmak, @cas and @MeatCanyon get their entire videos that they've worked so hard on taken down, just for having violent, action-packed or violent content. I mean, how is that fair? How is that consistent with their child-safety rules?
And it's not just that. They're guilty of other sins, such as forcing their viewers to watch so many ads they don't care to see, and the option to skip them is getting less and less. They're also very uptight about copyright views. You can't play certain songs you'd like to use for a video you're making. One of my BioShock videos from 2012 received a copyright claim for containing an old song that played in the game. That's not fair, because I didn't play the song. It was already in the game. And YouTube decided that I had to be responsible for that. And I think recently, @BreadBoys received a copyright claim for using a song that was free to use. So it doesn't matter what song you use for your videos, whether its a copyright protected song or a free song, YouTube just doesn't want anyone playing music on their platform, which is just bullshit! And just to mention, you can ever get copyright claimed just for singing a song yourself! How do you receive a copyright claim just for singing? That's like a violation of people's freedom to express themselves.
They also pick on some of the most beloved YouTubers, such as @CoryxKenshin. Every time he comes back from a hiatus and is #1 trending, YouTube gives him a strike and won't even explain to him why they gave him that strike. And Cory himself even complained that YouTube might actually be racist! There was also an incident when YouTube unreasonably terminated so many YouTube accounts, just for spamming emotes during a @markiplier livestream. And when they sent appeals to get their YouTube channel back, they immediately get rejected. Which leads to another issue about YouTube. It doesn't seem like there's a purpose for there to be appeals, because YouTube is just so quick to reject them.
Basically, my point is that YouTube doesn't care for its people in any way! They drastically censor its users from making certain content for copyright concerns and child-safety concerns. Meaning, animators are not allowed to post what they want because YouTube won't think it's kid-friendly, or don't approve of the music used in the video, even if it's free. They force its users to make YouTube a kid-friendly site, yet they allow channels to post violent body-cam footage of police arresting people and kids in a distressing manner which can be repulsive for sensitive viewers, proving that they don't really care about YouTube being a kid-friendly place and that they just need a reason to censor YouTubers from posting their desired content. And finally, YouTube bully some of their most popular and beloved users by censoring their content or terminating the accounts of those who follow them.
If there's a way for me to contact the current CEO/owner of YouTube, I'd be more than happy to reach out to him and demand that he stops these abuses on the platform's users and viewers!

@hatsunemikufan2004 it’s been 5 years since I posted my thanks for the 1,000 subscribers I’ve gained. And sadly I haven’t received any support from my latest posts on YouTube for my plans and goals. I hope you’re still around to support me and enjoy my new content when I finally manage to upload it on my channel, as soon as possible. 🙏🏻
