Please bring back "Simply Bitcoin" channel on youtube. It was a highly informative and entertaining channel that stuck to the facts and never promoted any scams or disinformation.

Youtube automatically or through their laughably titled 'experts' spent 3 yrs censoring scientists and other experts because they believed implicitly in what large corps. like Moderna or CDC or the Administration etc etc etc were saying. 7%. If this is the best they can do then we need to cancel 230 and directly control social media the same way newspapers were controlled in the 1950's!

I tried to implement the 7-day trial on my TV (which did not take effect , I am sure I did something incorrectly), anyway, it made me put my debit information in before signing up for the TRIAL. As i stated, I did not even get the service up and running, I also called the 1-800-563-1496 to make certain I would not be charged in 7 days.

I left 42 messages that week, with my name, my number and that I tried to set up a 7-day trial which did not work. 37 from my debit card on Feb 2nd at 9:38pm. com, which is the ONLY email I have used in the last 10 years.

37 from me but no one can find anything so they can put it back. I am struggling terribly since my hours were cut drastically. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Luis C was completely rude and refused to listen or help me. Then disconnected on me refusing to allow me to speak with a supervisor. His lack of empathy was only made worse by his complete lack of knowledge and willingness to listen.

I don't believe everyone at Youtube is doing something bad to me. My families and I use Youtube on this computer. I quite enjoy your serves thank you, however some foolish individual send me an Indian video mocking about pivot tables.

Well, someone today looked at pivot table on this computer, and yes there are people here that look at Bollywood videos that our family look at. Whosoever is sending this video truly don't know our race our what we are mixed with.

You see my hands have saved people lives.... During COV'IDL[-19 I saved a woman's life, and she is a different race or lets say made somewhat different from me. You see some people are ignorant about life until they meet suffering and hardships.

I practice humanity, and I was taught from an early age that to be decent, and kind.…

You Tube seems to be involve in some corrupt activity to benefit certain artist. The "Like Crazy" Mv by Jimin of BTS was uploaded 13 days ago. As many people have been streaming the MV the views do not go up.

It is the complete opposite. For the past 7 days the video reaches 30 million views and You Tube Deletes close to 1/2 million - 1 million views a day. The MV has reached 30 million views several days over and over. and over again.

Now the counter is just stock on negative as if the MV its not being view. Today its the last day of streaming/ tracking day that will benefit this artist (JIMIN) on the upcoming Billboard 100 Hit Chart which Jimin earned his first number 1 position on the Hot 100 Chart for last week.

In the other hand an artist of the same country (Jisoo) debuted her MV…

What is the point of "buffering" It used to mean the user was willing to wait for the data to load, so playback was smooth. But not to youtube. Apparently youtube feels necessary to waste everyone's time. And what a waste of time it is. To let a video "load" on my dinky little slow connection . . . And, in higher resolution so my poor eyes can actually see it. . . . What do I get? A bar, that fills across the bottom, and some youtube algorithm that thinks either stuttered frames or piss poor quality are the purposeful choices I made for allowing a video to buffer.

BTW, if my connection and ISP are so bad, why do ads come across in perfect crispness of resolution, while the video cannot? BECAUSE OF FORCED THROTTLING. Youtube is at fault. It is done on purpose. They expect their dominance…

had it for YEARS. For the very FIRST time ever, I thought I was purchasing a physical DVD of the orginal movie "Arthur" (1981) with Dudley Moore. then this other movie called "Arthur" pops up. NOT a physical DVD! Needless to say, I was very dissappointed. I called 650-253-0000.

Eventually got some lady on the line. Explained what happened, and that I could not get a refund online because I PLAYED 20 seconds of the movie! she was RUDE TO ME! she would NOT give me a refund. she didn't care.

she said she didn't care and would do it. she said she didn't. RUDE I never raised my voice, nor used ANY foul language with her! I just wanted a refund of $10 and change for purchasing the WRONG "Arthur" (this was a newer version) not the 1981 verson.

I STILL WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK to someone.…

Since YouTube has made it impossible to shut off Autoplay and Autoplay Next, it's no longer a desirable medium for me to view videos.

Flipping the 'Autoplay Off' slider doesn't work. Using Chrome extensions designed to stop Autoplay doesn't work. Nothing works. I guess it's simply greed for more and more ad revenue that's now controlling what used to be a good platform. I'm off to Rumble, TYVM.

I call YouTube and supposedly talked to a representative named Allen. I merely wanted to ask a question concerning using my Apple box to obtain their channels as a new customer. They said it couldn’t be subscribed on my TV but they would help.

They wanted me to purchase gift card for $500 which I wouldn’t do so now they’ve charged my bank $438 through PayPal which I never use. Can you help please?

Why would you need to know the name of my bank if i never shared that information as verification? SCAM ALERT

I was scammed for a 100 dollars on an Apple Card that your so called employee said he was when I tried to make a 50 dollar payment. He answered the phone you tube and I told him I needed to make a payment because my card expired and the service was interrupted, he said the only way is to create a new account by purchasing an Apple Card email delivery through Amazon for 100 dollars and

he would refund me the difference but he needed to see my online banking to make sure it was paid and after I went through a crazy paying method my service would be back on in 24 hours which never happened. My son had to create a new account so we could have service.

I want my 100 dollars back being this number is on the internet and it’s your employee that’s scamming people he goes by the name Sam. Please…

When I first started my YouTube Channel it was called Aussie Dan The Farmer my views started to go up getting views in the hundreds then it went to 1k and over then overnight my views went from 1k to 30 views most of my subscribers were asking me what was going on and I could not tell them the reason and

my videos were still about farming. So I changed the name of my channel to Bautista Family Farm but even now my long videos have trouble geting good views and I am always trying to improve my videos, I started doing shorts amd now my shorts are getting good views BUT

in two shorts my views hit 1k in an hour then the short just freezes no more views ever , this is very strange, I hope Youtube can help me get my channel back to where it was... very disappointed

A creator has used personal image of my fiance and myself as a thumbnail without our permission. She, the creator, then proceed to write nasty racist things next to our image about my fiance who happens to be Black. This image was stolen from my private Instagram account when the creator and I were used to be friends.

I have filed a privacy complaint to YouTube but the person handling my case said the creator didn't violate any policy. The reference number for my complaint is O7B65A634A6TLNQMQOLTM6X6TQ. I have attached evidence which proved my claim fits all the criterias that the creator has abused YouTube's Privacy Guidelines.

YouTube is not even following and stick to their own company's policies and regulations. YouTube, you are defending the perpetrator while condemning the victims.

Dear Sir / Madam, Greetings from Team DK hAL ! At the outset, the undersigned that an opportunity to express thanks and gratitude for offering a platform to go public sharing our views and contents. It is true that we opted to use this platform and was not invited by YouTube to be part of it.

But at the same time, we as a content maker, do believe that there should be fair dealing and being a global platform it is expected to be thoroughly professional. As a content maker, it is challenging to create good contents and maintain continuity.

Through this channel, we from India, publish short videos as an attempt to create some awareness (using science of Agriculture) towards profitable farming. Keeping in view the larger audience , each episode is prepared both in English and Hindi. Our…

Amidst all the banal, worthless rubbish that Youtube welcomes with open arms, I recently saw one of the most brilliant, educational, moving, sensitive, and well constructed documentaries i have ever seen, anywhere. This was by "Ask a Mortician" and told the story of the Eastland Disaster in Chicago, a shipping tragedy that killed more people than the Titanic. Every part of this fabulous documentary was meticulously researched and far from sensationalising this awful accident, the documentary went far beyond in examining the aftermath in a way that makes it a historically precious and enormously educational piece of programming. I was therefore horrified to find out that according to Youtube, this documentary breaches their guidelines and has no educational content!!

I am fully aware that…

MGL Michelle Goes Live had a panel early this morning. Herself, a corrections officer and someone else discussing in detail what the guards do to mentally ill inmates in vivid detail. Then Michelle got angry. Started in on her panel calling them really nasty words and kicked them both off the panel.
