ads
To whom it may concern. Today is August 4th, 2017 and I have been having an ad consistently played before my videos that I find is very disturbingly biased politically. Although I am all for mental health awareness, I don't believe you should be using an ad from someone who is promoting feminism (Assuming the people working at youtube have not watched the documentary "The Red Pill" I implore you to check it out). The ad I'm speaking of is "A Tribute to Linkin Park's Chester Barrington" (I'm a fan) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CN95ml5_XpU. I find feminism very offensive and politically charged, and would expect that an advertisement is about a product, and not a way of life, as it heavily influences youth. This is unacceptable to me, and is making strongly consider moving to Vimeo and suggesting others make the change as well. I will definitely be moving to another video streaming website if your new censorship disables the kind individuals with opinions that challenge the norm from having their platforms. I truly hope you you consider this, for your benefit as well. Please remain unbiased.. as you should.

youtube app (mobile, android) network error 400, preventing me from commenting
Trying to comment on a community post on the tyt page (on my mobile) but everytime I go to post said comment (for the past 2 days now) it says "There was a problem with the network [400]"
I have tried restarting my device, updating the app (no update was available) and i have also tried commenting off my Wi-Fi network and my Mobile network but still the same error message appears.
I have also tried to comment on my computer (using google chrome) but the option to comment is no longer there.
Please find me a solution as this problem is extremely frustrating.
Thanks, Los.

a channel lost all its videos
The YouTube channel Royal Crimson Films has lost all of its videos and I can't even watch them videos any more.One night I was watching them, I go to sleep, wake up and find they are gone. And the video that I added to watch later just says "private video" and when you kick on it, it skips to another video on the watch later list. It is ridiculous that I can't even watch my favourite videos on YouTube anymore. I can't watch infinite guardians or rise of delta squad (both are halo machinimas) due to the videos disappearing. I want them back NOW!
same company advertising constantly
Uber! Yes Uber! I have a car. I will never and have never used Uber. I constantly get Uber advertisements at the beginning and during most YouTube videos I watch. That is 98% of the time it will be a frikken Uber ad. I want it removed from my life, I am entitled to that right am I not? Or maybe a case of mental abuse should be opened against Uber or YouTube. Sounds like an idea.
ufc stream
Today, 29 July 2017, I purchased the UFC 214 stream. The stream was good with no issues till the Main event started then began lagging and chopping every 15-30 seconds without fail. I paid $60 for live stream and have been getting snapshots and loading text, and now a finished fight that I paid for and didn't get to see. Is the problem with Youtube or the UFC channel, either way I'm upset at not getting what I paid for.
my videos are gone.
I recently uploaded two videos onto my channel about Minecraft. They were successfully uploaded and even had comments on them and when I went back onto youtube they were gone. The videos were gone from my channel and replaced by some unactivated live stream video that I don't recognize. When I checked the successful upload email it states that it was removed by the user. I went through my email and I did not receive any notification that my videos were being deleted. I even checked the junk/ spam folder. This is the second time that this has happened to me and I am very upset about the whole situation. I need this fixed. Please assist me with these issues as I want to continue making and uploading videos,

double standards and racism against black youtubers
You tube has turned to rat [censor], they support all kinds of vile videos from the white hybrids, but when it comes to real news by black YouTubers they do everything in their power to shut us up, but the beta male coons like Stephen a smith Jason turdlock and other African hybrid [censor] lickers that's fine, what they did to Cynthia G is downright evil, but 99.9%of these Caucasoid hybrids are not human and there is no good in them, these United Snakes of America fake news inbreds
youtube red
all I get in my feed now is kid videos I have spent time trying to change the settings but that's all I get I enjoyed YouTube for years so at this time I will discontinue using YouTube until you fix your YouTube Red Fiasco. Please notify when you are fixed your crap so I can continue watching YouTube cuz I have enjoyed it for a long time but as always just like our great president you're screwing up and you don't even know it
too much censorship...
There are so many channels that are falling due to censorship and they are the channels that are liked the most. The money they make is no longer able to create videos. That sucks for everyone, no more videos from that YouTuber and no more money for the YouTuber. YouTube is going down due to this as well, I can't seem to find anymore videos that i like. It's because of censorship.
view statistics on videos
The new format on youtube.com does not allow users to see the viewing statistics, cumulative or daily, like the old format allowed. Please bring back this feature! People, such as myself look at these statistics almost every single day and I would be very disappointed if I am not able to use this feature anymore. It means a lot to me and a lot of people I know.
youtube tv app
Hi
Bought a lg47inch cinema tv a few year ago after saving up for 3 years. Only really used the youtube to connect my iPhone to it to play videos and music. Message popped up off lg saying youtube are stopping the service. It doesn't feel like a smart tv now without youtube that's the reason I bought the tv. Is there any way I can still get youtube on my tv through the app?
Regards,
Chris.
views not being counted
Hello,
My name is Asanti Martins. I'm a music artist. I am messaging you today because I believe there is a error in the view counting for my brother and I latest music video.
I read up on your policy about how you have to "validate" views which I have no problem with IF it's done ethically and correctly. However, I am confident our video does not show the correct amount of views.
My brother or I have not "faked" any views. We do not even know how to. Our latest music video is getting a lot of support from everyone. Our music video clip has been reposted at least 20 times by people with 1000 plus followers ( some a little less) on instagram. Therefore, I am very confused by the fact that we have under 200 views.
I believe whoever is counting views is discrediting the our views because of the amount of views that we've accumulated so quickly. This is very disheartening to see all our efforts being unfairly thwarted by a improperly functioning system. Please double check your system. If you find a error in the way our views are being counted, please correct it.
Don't take my complaint the wrong way. I'm a big fan of YouTube and the opportunities it creates for people like me. But, my brother and I are trying to accomplish something major. Take a look at the video yourself and you'll maybe understand why I feel so strongly about this. The link is right below

Thank you,

advertisements on youtube
On Sunday 23 July, 2017, I viewed some very disturbing content from an advertisement of Village Roadshow Picture's Annabelle 2. I had no idea that the ad was linked to the video and it deeply shocked me to witness it. I do not wish to link any content from this ad, as I believe that seeing once was enough to frighten me. As a result, I ask that any violent/disturbing horror movie trailers be banned from YouTube. It is after-all a public site and anyone of any age could be viewing this material.
Thank you for your time.

horror ads
I was just attempting to watch a video at 12:30 AM on July 24, 2017 when a horror ad came on before the video. While I don't mind viewing them during the day it really creeps me out when a horror ad comes on when I am alone in the dark. Would it be possibly to stop including ads for horror movies at night or at least put a disclaimer before them. Thank you.
inappropriate adverts
My daughters (aged 3 and 6) were watching a playlist of Disney songs on our TV, which are understandably peppered with ads in between songs. However, despite it being 11.00am in the UK, and having 'content filter' switched on, an advert for a computer game 'the evil within' comes on, featuring typical horror imagery. Luckily i was able to skip after 5 seconds just before it got potentially too graphic, but if i hadn't been in the room at the time I can imagine it wouldn't have been too pleasant. How is this sort of content allowed to play during videos aimed at children and at this time in the morning? Here in the UK there's a watershed for tv content of 9pm - I know the internet's different, but i should be able to let my children watch some child friendly videos with a content filter switched on safe in the knowledge that stuff like this wouldn't come on. Surely a content filter, which although disclaims isn't 100% accurate, affects adverts as well as videos?
This isn't the first time something similar has happened, previously adverts for a resident evil movie kept coming on before i wanted to watch a video during the day when the kids were around, one which i couldn't skip and just had to keep backing out of until it eventually wouldn't play.
I have a responsibility as a parent to make sure they don't view things they shouldn't, but you have a responsibility as a provider of content suitable for children, that inappropriate things aren't shown during the day or during such content aimed at children.
Ps The form to fill out for the complaint was confusing with its request for "company address/ name etc" so i put in youtube's by accident instead of mine.
I had exactly the same advert pop up while watching kids TV programme Morph on YouTube with my 2 year old daughter! Absolutely disgusted at YouTube regarding this. Luckily I was in the room to skip the advert before she saw anything horrible
malicious recording of conversation without knowledge or consent of participants
"Lies and Liberation" is a recording made with a hidden device in a private office. The people speaking in tbe recording were unaware of the recording being made (they were "bugged" using some sort of device planted in their office) and the content has been heavily edited and tampered with. It is being used maliciously to harrass and intimidate individuals. It has been reported to the police who are investigating in order to find the perpetrators of this illegal recording. This needs to be removed immediately from YouTube. Legal advice is being sought and will be acted upon.
