    YouTube has no problem with multiple different ai generated gory videos of Rebecca Madeupname being mauled alive by an orca. Every time I opened a private window, one of these was recommended. No age restriction, nothing.

    They have no problem with porn bots spamming family friendly channels with pro-paedo comments, even though they use the same avatars and messages so should be easy to filter out. Videos promoting dangerous hacks stay up even after multiple reports. They’re fine monetising reaction channels that are nothing more than freebooting other people’s work.

    So YouTube’s tos really comes down to: it’s fine if it makes money.

    I wish there was proper competition, even if it was run by another awful company like Microsoft or amazon. AFAIK no other platform offers monetisation like yt does, so people stay and put up with their crap.

    (Personally I’m hoping to reupload mf stuff to peertube if I ever come out this slump.)
