500+ hours of similar video content, most clearly computer-generated, with junk titles (from mkfile), and a new video being uploaded every 20 seconds. No "normal" videos other than the one behind a paywall and the one of the Eiffel Tower.
I don't know what the YouTube TOS says about automated bulk uploads, but I think such a user would have raised many flags on the system, regarding abuse, and the account would have been deactivated by now, right?... I'm betting that whoever is behind this has a special permit from Google.
edit: grammar
- legohead 12y agoYou are just adding on to the ambient conspiracy. It may be abusing terms, but I doubt google (especially the youtube team) is bothered at all by this.
- chrismcb 12y agoIf only there was a way to read the YouTube TOS and see what it says about automated bulk uploads (hint, it doesn't say anything) I don't see anything in the TOS that says doing something like this isn't allowed.
- thrownaway2424 12y agoThere is one organization that does not need special dispensation to violate the youtube terms of service.
- chrisBob 12y agoSo your guess is that google is testing automated uploads to their own service with public videos?
