Is this actually happening? Because it makes little sense when you consider that YouTube-parent Google is sponsoring security education videos. See this GCP-sponsored LiveOverflow video:

Maybe Google's killing off dodgy script kiddie vids, and leaving quality content up (and I mean the rest of LiverOverflow's videos et al, not just the paid-for stuff.)
- ggggtez 7y agoI think this came up months ago and it was clarified it was just a mistake, not an actually policy. Google didn't actually ban educational videos, but people drew conclusions from Twitter and assumed the worst against reason. Reddit comments seems to confirm that this is just fear mongering at this point, and the OP should know by now what happened.
- dbuder 7y agoGoogle is an outright liar in many cases where it says it was AI or a mistake.
- freyr 7y agoIf you read the comments in the Reddit thread, this is clickbait fear-mongering. It's a sad state of affairs when Reddit users are savvier than HN users.
- pizzazzaro 7y agoYes. We should all trust anonymous strangers on the internet over... anonymous... Strangers... On the internet...
- freyr 7y agoI mean, you could spend a minute reading both sets of commenters. One is well-informed and reasonable, the other is an angry mob carrying pitchforks.
