Once again, I find myself dealing with
0:02
another issue concerning YouTube. Of
0:05
course, I'm not surprised that this is
0:07
happening. I figured that it would. It's
0:10
just frustrating that it seems to be one
0:11
thing after another whenever it comes to
0:13
the platform. This morning, I've learned
0:16
that YouTube has hit my account with
0:18
their age verification, making it so I
0:20
have lost certain features within my
0:22
account. Now, there are some things that
0:25
I don't care too much about, such as
0:27
seeing adult content. I don't really
0:30
engage in NSFW content. It's just not
0:33
something that I'm particularly
0:35
interested in. Something that does upset
0:37
me, however, is the fact that one of the
0:40
features that have been removed is the
0:41
ability to send feedback. In order to
0:44
get the features back that I had lost,
0:46
I'd have to verify my account, which I
0:48
will not do. It really does seem like
0:51
they're trying to silence me for
0:54
Maybe it's due to the fact that I've
0:56
called them out on these issues, not
0:57
just recently, but in the past as well.
1:00
Or maybe it was due to the mention of
1:02
being on other platforms.
1:04
Either way, ever since the update in
1:06
particular, it's been one thing after
1:08
another. And frankly, I'm sick of it. As
1:11
I had mentioned, I will not be giving
1:13
YouTube my ID or any other personal
1:16
information. I feel that it is a direct
1:18
violation of my rights and my freedom of
1:20
speech. I feel that they have targeted
1:23
me as both a creative and as an
1:25
individual. And this has not just been
1:26
going on recently. It's just that it's
1:29
gotten worse. At this point, I'm really
1:31
not sure whether I'll be uploading
1:33
anything else on the platform. It may
1:36
not seem like a big deal, but it is.
1:39
It's the principle of it and the fact
1:40
that sites and platforms like this think
1:42
that they can bully people into silence
1:44
or giving them their information is
1:46
unacceptable and should not be
1:47
tolerated. I have taken action against
1:50
this, though I don't know how much good
1:52
it'll do. I just wanted to let you know
1:54
what's been happening. I want to thank
1:57
everyone who was supportive and stuck
1:59
with me. I really do appreciate it and
2:01
it means a lot to me. It is unfortunate
2:04
that it has come to this. I really don't
2:07
expect to see any changes for the
2:09
better. It just seems to keep getting
2:11
worse. I am on other platforms for
2:14
anyone else who may be getting tired of
2:16
YouTube. If you have the chance, be sure
2:19
to check out the channels on the other
