I was wanting to watch a video and a channel called activistfacts had a n ad called CREW exposed. It is filled with misleading info and outright lies. They have a right to have a channel and videos such as this, but should not be allowed to advertise like this. It isn't the first time I've seen ads like this, but it shouldn't be allowed. They are a far right wing organization that is known for lying and misleading people and there is no product that they are trying to sell.

I love youtube vut this is horrible and vile. Went ro the search bar and typed in "how to have" and came up with how to have sex with your kids, how to have sex with kids. I feel that you guys should not allow even titles like this as it is illegal. Its vile, its gross, and it makes me not want to use this app anymore. Like i would like to see this taken care of asap

On 11/19 youtube burned crrow777 channel, I find this to be a horrible violation of our freedom of speech. I don't understand why youtube is trying to censor my mind! He has not hurt nor bullied anyone, please return his channel to Us. In my America this shouldn't be, we have the right to talk about issues and explore information like the lunar wave even if it goes against mainstream content. Once again please put back crrow777 channel.

Yours truly
A concerned youtube user

Hello, I'd like to raise a questions which came to my attention for past couple of months. Youtube increased the amount of popping out ads and it literally pops up every 1-2 minutes. It became impossible to watch the videos. What's more, there is obvious increase of "mandatory" ads, which i cant skip after 5sec. Please start paying attention to it, because it makes me withdraw from watching videos on your channel.

thanks in advance.

These friggin advertisements are absolutely ridiculous and i'm not even reffering to the sheer frequency which is becoming beyond a joke.

First of all there is a terrible lag before each and every ad whereby the audio from the video i am "trying" to watch is still playing in the background but the first frame from the [censor] annoying ad (which im never interested in anyway) just stays there, paused for a good 5-10 seconds before eventually playing (and then finally i can skip it like i always do anyway)

It's completely ruined my youtube experience which is a shame as i constantly use youtube

I have heard some good noises about other platforms which work similar to how youtube used to (such as vimeo) and i think i'll be migrating to them from now on

Hi Youtube, i am Albert Gjini and i use a lot Youtube..but while i was uploading my editings Youtube did a mistake(i think) suspending my Channel..All my contents was by me and i am sure for that.Now other Channels are using my old videos to increase views and Subscribers..Can you please check my Youtube Account because this is all i have..Give my Channel back please

Hi
i am very annoyed with the whole ads things, it's nice if it was played once or twice during the videos, but i feel that it's played way to much, IT discourage and i am not able to enjoy that video as i would like to, honestly i'm considering to stop watching videos on youtube .Seriously take this whole ads thing Down or control it .I HAD ENOUGH OF ADS, ITS NOT COOL!

Thank you!

I demand that you re-instate "a call for an uprising channel!

i am your consumer! you are nothing more than a bunch of child molestin pedophiles that disable channels that disagree with you satanic worship.

There have been no violations on this channel and i was not able to download all of his videos for my research.

If you want to sacrifice children for their blood then do it! you will all burn in hell. Do not torture those of us that are god fearing christians and want to hear the truth. Sundar pichai is a child molestor and pedophile and you support him. I pray that god sends you all to hell to burn for eternity where the worm dieth not and the fire is never quenched!

review and re-instate the channel now! you worthless luciferian liberal bleeding heart child killers! murderers liars cheaters and thieves! you will all burn in hell as i laugh!

in closing, die, burn in hell and be tormented by satan your lord forever!

I do not want to see a dead body. Today I hid suggestions in my feed advertising whatever sick thing this is. Now I have a man dragging a body by it's feet in the top of my screen asking again, do you want to see a dead body. No. I'm not a psychopath. Please stop showing me these disturbing images. As a victim of assault currently going through counselling, these pervasive ads in your service are extremely off-putting.

I am an Italian journalist in Ireland, editor of italvideonewstv.net, an online magazine for the Italian Community in Ireland.
I am also the creator of some 415 videos which are first posted in youtube and subsequently used in the said website. Lately I have been pestered by your monitors/controllers who have disqualified some of the latest videos I have produced, for monetization or limited them as not suitable for most advertisers.
I have kept proving them wrong with regard to the " supposed" copyright infrinchments, in that the tunes used for my video have been taken from the royalty free set of tunes inbuilt in the video edit program I use (Magix). As for the ground of not being suitable for most advertisers, I have pointed out that "all" the videos they find in my channel (italvideonews2) are above board journalistic coverage of events interviews etc.. which I compile for the inclusion in my Italian online magazine and certainly they do not contain bad language, have no sexual content and do not instigate violence.
As an example you may check these two videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owDdSsZ7Oqk or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kb6vGX5Ypo
I would ask those who check videos to do their homework first before embarking on verdicts of this kind.
Cordially

To whom it may concern:
I am an avid YouTube watcher. It concerns me greatly the position you are taking with the gun channels. It appears YouTube is a left-leaning political platform apparently. You are treating these channels unfairly and I wish you would exercise your political influence elsewhere. I'm not going to go into a lot of detail because you know the situation better than I. I think you should know that myself and many others will be no longer using YouTube AT ALL If you eliminate any of the channels that we watch. We would much rather lose YouTube all together than to support your agenda.

I have been trying to watch a 19 minute video on American politics and in the first 4 minutes I have had 4 advertisements totaling nearly the same length. This has become the norm with youtube in the last 2 months and it is getting beyond a joke.
I know you receive revenue from the advertisers but I would like you to know as well as the advertisers that I will NEVER purchase anything from your advertisers due to the relentless onslaught of adverts youtube place on uploaded videos.
I have already informed Tui ne Thompson that I will never go on one of their holidays because of the none stop advertising.
Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous.

Very often I see alcohol ads on Youtube. The advertisements on my videos are not a problem and I don't complain or use ad-block to block them all, but I am an adult child of alcoholics from a family with severe alcohol problems. The alcohol advertisements are therefore extremely offensive. It is especially bad because the ads are in my native language and my country has strict alcohol advertisement laws and it is especially clear the alcohol companies are using Youtube as a loophole to show alcohol commercials that are only legal after 23:00 in Lithuanian television.
I am not sending this complaint to ask for Youtube to ban the alcoholic drink ads in my country, but I do request that I have an option to block these sort of ads on my account.

Can you stop showing me ads about Jake Paul ? It is already established that he is a bully, manipulater and liar solely for the sake of his own business by his own employees and others creators. (Watch Alissa Violet, Faze Banks, Martinez Twin videos for more information). Stop recommending that kind of behavior or at least let people have the option to change the kind of ads they view ? Why are you recommending a 21 year old watch his so called PG but full of making out and dad kissing friend contents ?

youtube did nothing to help me a man on youtube told his friend to make threats and bomb threats youtube support did nothing to help the mans name is tony vera he told his friends to make bomb threats and threats to a la bus tour company i called the gm there i told the gm i saw the video he got 2 employees fired for something he did he stalked harassed and lied on the employees over a bus stop somethingmust be done

Monetization aint frigging working if there's going to put my videos on copyright anyway remove the copyrights or remove the monetization because even though you may have monetization on it still can give you a copy right thats [censor] stupid when the explained that you may not be in trouble theres either monetization or ads running on your video so by copyrighting the videos youtube is going against the uploaders monetization or ads rights, in defect youtube has ruined many youtubers and that is stupid!

To whom this may concern,

I purchased Staright outta Compton at the cost of $4.99 on the 11/11/2017 at 10:06pm with
Order number: YPC.6H63-XFZN-9S8F-RW64

This movie played for approximately 40minutes or so to then no avail due to some technical issues which denied further access to continue the movie...What solution for this problem do whom may concern have to amend such concern?

Kinda Regards, Jorden.

My 8 year old daughter has been very disturbed recently about adverts for a game called Hooked and Yarn that play creepy music and scary words to advertise these games. Today she had two whilst watching Amazing Gumball and these disturbing adverts are not appropriate for her age group. These should be screened before they are approved and are definitely not suitable during children's videos. Please investigate and withdraw these adverts. She should not be terrified by something she has no control over.

I am disgusted that a 2 year old child can subscribe to a paid service via the app. Whist watching videos of children's programs. I think it's morally unethical to allow paid games services to be avertised on your app and aimed at precschool children. Snack games have been no help on the issue, and this has happened at least 4 times in past 6 months at £3 a time. If you advertise paid products, surley you should have a safeguard in place regarding children and buying. It shouldn't be as easy as one click and subscribed to a paid service. I might take this to the national press, depending on your reply, as I'm sure I'm not the only parent with this issue.
