It would be good if YouTube weren't held responsible for the content they host (by both media and regulators). Its not fair to blame the transmitter for the content.
- Imnimo 5y agoWell, but even beyond regulators and media, if I'm a parent, do I want to let my kid watch videos on a site where they might click over to a how-to on a homemade medicine that'll kill them? And if I'm the guy running YouTube, will I sleep well at night if users of my site die after trying something that they saw on my site? I think even if I were just running YouTube in my basement and had zero media or regulator attention, I'd want to avoid that just for my own conscience.
