Controversial Video Urges YouTubers to Effect Change

This video discusses the bandwagon of people who have swarmed YouTube with conspiracy, end times, and Planet X videos.

As we have seen in the past, whenever a credible topic, image, or video starts getting attention a legion of profit seeking individuals start creating dozens of channels all mostly being owned by a single entity. On these channels we find that a single video may be cross linked a dozen times as a fresh new production on each and every channel. To fuel the growth of these channels the content used almost never originates from the channel owners own blood, sweat, and tears. On these channels many stolen videos can be found being copied and pasted in entirety without specific permission from anybody. I know you are sick of those people with hyped titles asking for donations and inserting ads every 60 seconds.

Unfortunately, what is now becoming YouTube is a domination of hot topics by channels that cannot feature 1 hour of original work. The impact of redundant channels is not fully understood by advertisers and corporate executives. For how is it you can measure the impact when a viewer sees exploitation of other’s work on a video and associates a product or a service with a production that was hyped, misinformative, and or stolen? In fact YouTube itself has protections regarding redundant uploads and will block an upload that is a copy of another upload.

The other huge problem is that crucial issues and vital information becomes tainted when a true research channel becomes associated with the swarm of crackpot channels with crackpot theories. Then what happens to YouTube is that a search for true information is simply impossible. And as the video narrator below points out many of these private channels have already left YouTube and that the remaining truthers (original) survive upon clicks, likes and shares. This video opens up a remarkable opportunity to change YouTube because your click is like a vote that is cast on a ballot inside a voting booth! However, one must point out that sometimes the power of a click is never as loud as the power of “not clicking” at all!!
