YouTube is in danger of becoming the video site of last resort if they keep allowing SEO engineers to drive good content down and instead drive garbage to the top
Also, I got my first DMCA takedown the other day. They said I'm allowed 3 before they delete my site. All my videos passed the copyright check when I uploaded them so I relied on that as fair use. It occurred to me that my site will inevitably be taken down if 3 is the limit so I've lost all motivation to use it for anything.

- labrador 4y agoI've been on YouTube since the beginning. In the early days I uploaded a short clip from a favorite movie but YouTube removed it. A bunch of other people downloaded it and kept re-uploading it until YouTube finally gave up. I guess their new tact is tougher. They threaten to delete your account now.
