reviews and complaints

Please stop showing PragerU propaganda advertising. I am very offended by the brain washing propaganda that they push. It's one thing to let them have a channel that I can ignore and thumb down. But to let them pay for slots that I can't avoid or criticize is too much. I would rather let Alex Jones keep his channel that I can ignore and thumb down ( freedom to speech) then let Prager U advertise. This speaks volumes to what YouTube will allow if they are paid enough which speaks volumes to their ethics and true intent. A fix for this is to have a high standard of censorship with advertising and get off content creators backs. YouTube should be about the content not the advertising otherwise what's the point

1. Can they use these SuperMario Characters legally in this manner?

2. As little kids are watching this content, shouldn't you be flagging it as Adult...given the cussing 🤬 and inappropriate humor for kids?

3. Isn't this racist or at the least culturally incompetent and insensitive content?

Hi please look advertising policy; YouTube is not a pleasure to watch anymore with all the adds! I can live with, and I think most people too, a 15 second add after every song or preferably after every 3rd song, but please - does it have to be a 10 minute add after every song? I understand you have to be a commercially viable company, but don't get annoying. Thank you very much Riaan

Some "The Good Doctor" videos have been removed by user recently with no reason. Three videos were removed between October 21 to 23, 2018; one Paige Spara's biography was removed on October 25 or 26, 2018. One "The Good Doctor" "Shaun and Lea" music video was removed today, October 27, 2018.

The captions of these videos are "The Good Doctor S2x03 I shouldnt have told you to go away" "The Good Doctor S2x01 Lea returns" or "The Good Doctor S2x01 Lea is back" and "The Good Doctor S1 Shaun and Lea"

This person will keep doing that until YouTube stops her. Thanks.

I am sick to death of all the [censored]ing advertisements on every [censored]ing video I watch.
I'm sick to death of watching that stupid [censored] writing her term papers and I don't give a flying [censored] what some silly [censored] did with Wix!
You need to remember that YouTube was started without any of this [censored] and now it like a terrestrial television channel for [censored] sake cut back the [censored]!

This is something I am racking my brain over trying to solve the issue. I have gigabit internet speed, so more than fast enough. Since yesterday, YouTube 4K videos have been buffering and starting and stopping. They stopped starting at 4K, 2160p, only HD. When I try and force the Auto setting of each video to 4K, 2160p, the videos do not play all the way through without buffering, starting and stopping.

This is the main reason why I have my Roku Ultra 4640x device, for YouTube 4K videos! I have heard many complaints about this. I have tried everything. I have updated the Roku to the most current version. Enabled playback video debugging, set the minimum playback speed to maximum, and removed the YouTube app and reinstalled it. Nothing works. This is happening with wireless and ethernet connections to the modem.

But 4k videos play just fine on my PC. Pleas help! I do not want to go to another device manufacturer. This is a big selling point for me.

Since neither Roku or YouTube is willing to help me with this, and the posts go back to one year on Roku and September for YouTube, I am beyond upset. I have been a HUGE supporter of the Roku for over 5 years now always upgrading to the next version when it comes out, but this is a big deal breaker for me if I cannot play YouTube 4K HDR videos without buffering.

I even changed the settings in my Roku to lower video settings and the 4K videos still keep buffering on most of them. RIDICULOUS! What is the point of having these devices for the main purpose of 4K HDR content if we have buffering issues? I even upgraded to GIGABIT internet recently and the problems STILL persist! So I know this is definitely a YouTube issue! PLEASE FIX YOUR PROBLEMS GOOGLE/YOUTUBE! Quit throttling 4K/4K HDR content. I need help to fix this!

It appears that a significant portion of the ads that appear during videos are gambling ads. This is extremely frustrating in many respects.
Furthermore YouTube's recent censorship of many channels and videos for inexplicable reasons. This censorship considered in conjunction to above advert barrage lends one to consider whether you at YouTube have any perspective worthy of note.
Just hide behind the web and make it up as you go along.
I am someone who actually gambles, unlike many if your subscribers and viewers, yet I still am aware that this is a total disgrace on YouTube's part.
Also your notion of "advertiser friendly material" should be inverted to non human friendly advertising.
Pathetic.

Hi there. I have to complain about the amount of commercials shown in all video content. I was watching a 10 minute video and 6 commercial were shown. That's so disruptive and redundant because they were mainly the same advert. Is this what you are doing to make people switch to a paid subscription, blasting you're viewers with advertising? That's just classless. At least on tv the commercial come at predetermined time when the program isn't disturbed, whereas your adverts cut off content at any point with no rhyme not reason just to piss everyone off. How is it that people who are looking to cut the cord from conventional television advertising and looking to youtube as an alternative, are forced to watch seemingly randomly placed repeated adverts that totally disrupt the flow of what we are watching? How disappointing and off-putting.

I live in the UK, and resent having to pay £13.99 pm for the You Tube Music service that is provided to US subscribers for only $9.99. Furthermore, the price advertised and reported on at UK launch in June this year was £9.99pm. Are you claiming that YouTube has added 40% in value to the service since then to justify this? I think not!

Seriously, I would like to subscribe, but NOT at that price which is unfair to the consumer and smacks of profiteering.

He always put fake hacking tricks
he says that he is a ethical hacker, but always shows fake videos by showing some or the other computers mysterious tricks
he always abuses some youtube channel creators namely "technical guruji", "gaurav choudhary" etc because he is jealous of him
he is a fraud promoter
he shows the viewers that from a website which is actually fake "www.openupcase.com"that we can earn money from clicking some subtitles
he also shows for winning the game we have to spend/ put some bitcoins and after that you can win $200 etc. which is actually fake. I got news that fake website is of mr. Erene
and mr.erene spends $700
mr.erene also tries to bribe "technical guruji" for its promotion of $1000
but guruji refuses to take the bribe

so I would politely request youtube company to bann "technical sagar"

My child was watching Eiterbeule. It's a minecraft channel. Adverts for the film Halloween kept on coming up. Halloween is a horror film and definitely an 18.

Why is this ad being shown inconjunction with minecraft videos?

Most children that play minecraft or are interested in minecraft are definitely not 18.

This is extremely irresponsible from youTube to allow this.

My children will not be allowed near youTube in the future.

Im not a parent. Still, I worry about content suitable to younger children. Whether that commercial just scares them or has a lasting effect, even a trauma. So let me share with you what happened.

Grant it, I am 40 years old and I pretty much can handle any content put in front of me. But what if this was a child? So I decided to go to YouTube and look up something related to Disney. And as always they play 30 second commercials before our selected video.
However, it was a movie trailer about the upcoming movie Halloween. A very strong set of clips where the main character is murdering and terrorizing people. I began to wonder, " How does such a horrific graphic clip play just before a kid friendly Disney video comes on?" Who is supervising this on your end?
Now if the commercials are on auto pilot or run random, my next question is "WHY?".
Our kids grow up with the tv for a nanny. I strongly believe everything they see will have a tremendous impact on them. Or some videos will traumatize our younger You Tubers, and need to be controlled better.
What do you think? Now, Im not looking for an apology. Im wondering what a socially responsible company like You Tube will do to change things.

Stop showing me daily wire ads. I've reported them on many occasions. Daily wire is [censored]. You have all my view history.why would you degrade your product by trying to push those [censored] ads on me?

These ads stick out like a sore thumb and you should already know that I don't want to see them. Knowing that you advertise them makes me dislike your product.

I have now spent 10 minutes worrying about making a complaint instead of watching your videos. Stop giving me the daily wire ads

10:00-10:10 the whole site wasn't accessible and we checked with multiple people to make sure it wasn't just the WiFi and all Over
the United States you tube was down and I would like to know why this happened so email me nathannst.[protected]@icloud.com and please explain this also this messed up so many people's opinions on YouTube and made them not rate it 5 stars mentaly and this is a serious problem for YouTube and the should USA so please email me or texte me @ [protected]

The videos aren't loading and nothing fixes it. Youtube has never done this to me before, it had always worked just fine, until today. I just got home and it won't load. This needs to be fixed. I am not very happy that your app isn't working. I could care less about it glitching on views or whatnot but this is not okay. I can't enjoy the app the way I wanted to because of this malfunction. I think highly of the app and of how it works but not so much right now. Please please fix this. Thanks!

I logged on to my account once I got home from school and went onto YouTube as its my daily routine. The only problem is that today right now at 7:02 PM Pacific Daylight Time, its not working. I tried it on both my Iphone and my computer and neither of them work. I just wanted to let you guys know that You Tubes not working for me and might not be working for others.

I am Argentinian. I follow different religions, but not the traditional ones. I have noticed today that many African and South American religions videos have been blocked. You should not do that at least in Argentina, because our constitution in the code 14 allows the freedom of faith and religion to all the citizens. This is very bad and is racist! I want further explanations about this and how YouTube is insulting our beliefs and freedom

Everytime i try to get on it it wont work it says network error 505 and i have restarted my phone turned data and wifi on and on and i have restarted and everything the video will sometimes pop up but will say video timed out i tried a bunch of diffrent ones but it wont work what is wrong?
