YouTube의 광고 차단 동영상 삭제는 플랫폼 정책에 대한 크리에이터의 고충을 잘 보여줍니다.

we've had our share of controversies on this channel. Getting hacked, uploading April Fool's pranks that were too believable. That time Colton issued copyright strikes against ourselves twice. We've also removed plenty of videos from our channel, sometimes due to typos or other errors that needed to be corrected, or disagreements with sponsors. But you know what's never happened in 15 years? We have never had a video on our channel taken down by YouTube without our consent. Is what I used to say. That is until last Tuesday when I received a notification that our video titled DeGoogle Your Life Part Two: Ad-Free YouTube was removed from the platform, and I was issued a community guidelines strike warning. A warning that turns into a full strike if I repeat the offense. Except what exactly did I even do? How is it that a video about open maps and ad blocking can fall under harmful or dangerous content? I've done more dangerous things for a D.E. Grand sponsor spot, and those are all still up. Speaking of, obviously those guys weren't going to

miss an opportunity to insert themselves into an LTT controversy, so they sponsored this video, and we'll talk about them more a bit [Music] later. First, let's go through what happened on August 20th. We published DeGoogle Your Life Part Two, and after about 2 weeks and 1.4 million views, YouTube took the video down and gave us a warning for violating their terms of service, or TOS. But why? I mean, we've uploaded numerous other videos that cover topics like ad blocking, VPNs, and alternative YouTube clients. What is it that made this video specifically harmful or dangerous? We get part of the answer in this explainer paragraph that says that this category applies to videos which violate YouTube's terms of service, or emphasis here, encourage other users to do so, which includes content that provides instructions on how to download YouTube videos in an unauthorized manner. There's a lot to unpack here, starting with that I don't understand how that is harmful or dangerous, except maybe to Google's bottom line. They want you to pay for

premium for the privilege of downloading videos, which is well within their rights, but I don't think you can make the argument that downloading video is harming the community in any way unless we've dimension hopped and gone back 40 years and viewing that content could cause the thought police to cart you away for reprogramming. But let's put that aside because the arbitrary categorization isn't really the point. The video was removed because for several of its 23-minute runtime, we discussed a number of ways of accessing all of the content on YouTube without interfacing with YouTube directly, including by downloading videos. Now, to avoid this video getting removed, I'm not going to repeat what we said, and I'm not going to link L to the re-uploads that other users have graciously provided for your convenience. What I am going to do, though, is not issue copyright strikes against those guys, and I'll give you the one adree YouTube hack that I actually thought was the coolest one. Uh, for whatever reason, if you copy the URL of a

YouTube video into Bing, you should get to enjoy an ad-free experience. Now, saying that shouldn't violate any TOs, and if Google doesn't like it, they can hash that out with Microsoft. I recommend an MMA match between Satya Nadella and Sundar Pichai. Other than that, I don't know if there's a path to us making this video available again on YouTube, because if we re-uploaded it, that would be violating the TO again, netting our channel a strike, which is a pretty big deal. YouTube has a pretty clear three strikes and you're out policy, with strike one stopping us from posting for a week, strike two stopping us for two weeks, and strike three permanently removing the channel altogether. Not posting for even just one week would result in significant damage to our business, and with around 100 people working here supporting their families, that just isn't a risk that we're willing to take, no matter how cheeky I'm personally feeling about the whole situation. And besides, if we're being

honest. We probably should have known this was coming. We aren't the first channel that this has happened to. Because of discussions around downloading videos and even channels that are on the larger side, like Lewis Rossman's, have gotten struck for promoting a particular desaturated Corvette app that includes just such functionality. Now, obviously, he didn't end up getting banned forever, considering that his channel is still around, but they were clearly furious that he'd been so brazen. And I mean, it's pretty obvious why YouTube is upset about this. At the end of the day, we both knowingly violated the TOs and in a manner that has a clear impact on the long-term viability of the platform. As much as I hate to say it, they're kind of right here. I mean, imagine if you created a restaurant, let's call it Nacho Gong. Then someone punched a hole in the back of the restaurant, giving everybody direct access to the kitchen and then started giving out the food for free, food that you paid for. Now, obviously, the

bandwidth and storage costs of serving a video are not the same as the food supplies and prep costs of serving a meal, but they are real costs that the platform does have to bear, and the payment for them is ads and tracking on YouTube. You don't have to like those things, and you can continue to circumvent YouTube's payment system as long as you're able. I'm not going to judge you, but what you can't do is sit there and say, Well, I have no idea what they're mad about, and you shouldn't be surprised if YouTube does someday patch the undocumented API exploits that third-party platforms are taking advantage of. So, when that inevitably happens, then what do we do? Well, I can't speak for every creator, but what we did is we made our own video platform with float planes and exclusives. So, if you like our content, please consider subscribing over at lm.g/f flat plane, where you will still be able to find degoogle your life part 2 with no ads or sponsor integrations.

along with plenty of behind-the-scenes and exclusive content that was in many cases deemed to be too hot for YouTube or in most cases actually not algorithm-friendly. And I mean, I hate that it's come to this. Nobody wants more subscriptions, but we aren't the only ones who see the writing on the wall and want to reduce our reliance on Google's fat fee. Plenty of other creators have also set themselves up on alternatives like Patreon to offer their fans something more that doesn't come with intrusive ads and tracking. As for the future of our content here on YouTube, well, we're definitely going to keep uploading, but we're also definitely going to play it a little safer with respect to third-party YouTube clients and tools. With that said though, we haven't dawned our tricorn hat for the last time, and in fact, we've got a video coming very soon on the various ways that you can activate Windows 11, ranging from buying it for $200 to activating it for a lot less than $200. So make sure

you're subscribed, and I will see you over there. Just like dbrand sees us through difficult times like this, those guys are always there, helping reduce our dependence on Google, Tube, and other Tech Giants. And they've got something special for you guys, helping you reduce your dependence on INF, Fior, skin, and case companies. They are offering until Monday 10% off sitewide. All you've got to do is go to the link in the video description. Whether you need a case for your Steam Deck, a screen protector for your phone, a skin for your game console, uh, better-looking sides for your PlayStation 5, they've got you covered. And what's the link? YouTube, YouTube. Thanks, dbrand, you're always there for us. If you guys enjoyed this video, maybe check out the one about our Channel getting hacked last year. Those guys, man, do they have any allies in the industry? Is Burning Bridges just their pastime?

이 채널은 해킹, 장난 업로드, 자체 저작권 침해 등 다양한 논란에 직면해 있습니다.

최근에는 15년 만에 유튜브에 의해 채널의 동영상이 처음으로 삭제되는 일이 발생하여 위반 여부에 대한 혼란을 야기했습니다.

문제의 동영상은 광고 차단과 오픈 맵에 관한 내용으로, 유튜브 동영상의 무단 다운로드를 조장한다는 이유로 유해한 것으로 간주되었습니다.

YouTube의 콘텐츠 삭제 및 동영상 다운로드

YouTube는 동영상 다운로드 등 플랫폼을 직접 사용하지 않고 콘텐츠에 액세스하는 방법을 설명하는 동영상을 삭제했습니다.

크리에이터는 저작권 침해를 방지하기 위해 정보를 반복하거나 재업로드 링크를 연결하지 않도록 하고 있습니다.

이 크리에이터는 광고 없이 YouTube 동영상에 액세스하기 위해 Bing을 사용하는 독특한 해킹 방법을 공유하면서 동영상 재업로드의 잠재적 결과에 대한 우려를 표명했습니다.

동영상 다운로드 논란에 대한 YouTube의 대응

YouTube는 루이스 로스만과 같은 대형 크리에이터를 포함하여 동영상 다운로드를 조장하는 채널에 대해 조치를 취했습니다.

이러한 조치는 서비스 약관을 위반하고 장기적인 생존 가능성에 영향을 미치기 때문에 플랫폼의 불만은 충분히 이해할 수 있습니다.

이에 따라 크리에이터는 광고나 스폰서 통합 없이 콘텐츠를 제공하기 위해 자체 동영상 플랫폼인 플로트 플레인을 출시했습니다.

YouTube의 대안을 찾는 크리에이터

많은 콘텐츠 제작자가 YouTube 수수료에 대한 의존도를 낮추고 방해가 되는 광고 없이 독점 콘텐츠를 제공하기 위해 Patreon과 같은 플랫폼으로 눈을 돌리고 있습니다.

이러한 변화는 타사 YouTube 클라이언트 및 도구를 사용하여 더 안전하게 재생해야 할 필요성에 의해 주도되고 있습니다.

이러한 변화에도 불구하고 크리에이터는 계속해서 YouTube에 업로드할 예정이며, Windows 11을 활성화하는 다양한 방법에 대한 동영상을 비롯한 다양한 콘텐츠가 예정되어 있습니다.

dbrand는 월요일까지 사이트 전체에서 10% 할인을 제공하여 거대 기술 기업에 대한 의존도를 낮추는 데 도움을 주고 있습니다.

Steam 데크용 케이스, 휴대폰용 화면 보호기, 게임 콘솔용 스킨 등 다양한 제품을 제공합니다.
