This is a completely useless article. The only evidence presented is that YouTube is altering view counts is "One CNS News reader reported the likes to be at 838 on March 23." The rest of the article just describes what the rest of the internet already knows: View counts are not updated in real-time and are subject to scrutiny by spam checkers.
Seriously, there is no evidence from anywhere in this article. Their quote from YouTube offers a clear explanation of what is going on. Followed by: "Both CNS News and Alex Jones' Infowars.com suspects that there is more to it then just “standard policy”. Neither what it is that they suspect, nor why they suspect it (other than trying to make it look like they're being censored) is mentioned.
