This is just one of the effects of the ongoing race-to-the-bottom in programmer cost. At some point, things are so bad that they can just be thrown away.
Dear MBA-morons: Get it in your heads that writing good code is vastly more difficult than anything you could ever hope to do in your lives and that this makes the people that can do it expensive and rare. Also remember (as you should have learned) that a project producing an inadequate result is vastly more expensive in its TCO as one that uses more expensive personnel, but produces an adequate result.
That will work out well. Everybody on YouTube, no matter how nice or friendly, has enemies. There are a lot of dissatisfied, cruel, envious and stupid people around and also some outright psychos. If these people now get handed a Really Big Stick, they are going to use it.
On the plus-side, this extreme stupidity hopefully will hasten the demise of YouTube. It has vastly overstayed its welcome anyways.
There is no cure for the common stupidity and its variants of anti-vaxxing, flat-earthing, etc. I also do not agree that this is censorship. Freedom of speech does not go so far that gross lies that harm and kill people can be tolerated.
Seriously, this is absurd. Literally the only difference in "proper" or "improper" use is the intent of the person watching it, and now they want to try to regulate intent?
They do and they have done so in the past. What do you think the real reason for an all-seeing "God" is? It is to censor and enforce restrictions on intent, nothing less. As more and more people see through that old scum these days, they are now trying other ways to control what people dare to think. They are starting with something where they think many people will agree, but of course, this is planned to be extended as soon as they won this battle.
Nothing less than total control over others will satisfy the current generation (well, all generations really) of authoritarian scum. The sad thing is that these people are again being listened too. As if the numerous fascist, stalinist and other authoritarian catastrophes the human race has caused in the past are not enough and we need some more.
Indeed. This stuff is not porn in any normal way, it is only porn in the minds of some deviants and the maker of this video seems to be one of them. (Same principle as the most extreme anti-homosexuals are usually secretly one of them...) It seems the potential harm is rather limited and does not justify this outcry at all. Probably some censorship agenda being pushed as well, as happens so often these days.
Indeed. It is pretty hard to see how anybody is getting exploited here. The test for exploitation (the subject is harmed) seems to fail completely. This panic is not new though. In fact, a pretty large part of the human population will be offended by anybody female being shown at all, and this is going in that direction eventually. Do we really want to go that way?
They have a few years actually building secure infrastructure instead of the insecure crap most have in place. If you are not prepared, even advanced script-kiddies can get in.
It is a very old form of manipulation: If you know your product/service/agenda/faith/etc. has a serious defect, state with force the exact opposite. Whether this is "now even stronger" after a tissue brand actually got weaker, "we take your privacy seriously" when the opposite is true or "thou shalt not kill" when these fuckers are the most prolific murders available does not matter. What matters is that this dishonest and despicable approach seems to work on many people.
The Measles are not the result of immigrants coming into the country. They are the result of citizens not being immunized. Stop pushing propaganda lies.

You cannot tie it. Pretty bad ;-)
Stupid customers buying from stupid company and getting what they deserve. A rare instance of Karma working.
I am just glad they did not hire me way back, I may have had to become complicit in "not" doing evil!
Not that they are knowingly doing criminal things, that is a given. But that they are so stupid as to put their crimes in writing...
Indeed.
As this is a panic, you need 100%. Seriously. Any single case left will be hyped all out of proportions.

Very true.

Eventually, if this panic goes on, this will have your daughter being taken away and you being put in prison.
No, it cannot. ML is maybe 90% accurate if really, really good. You need a lot more than that here.
.... you'd better dress everyone up in burkas right now.
That is probably pretty much the original reasoning behind the burka anyways.
So the problem are the comments, not the videos?

The NSA is probably outsourcing these attacks not to make them cheaper...

Excellent point.

And I can even add you to my spam-filter if you are wasting my time.

From relevant research. Read up on it. I am not doing your homework.
