2019 November: A semi-popular Youtuber in the HOI4 community is being demonetised for "hateful content" even though it is satire. Seems like Youtube is going after games that are deemed offensive for sharing history (HOI4 is based on WW2).

They've come out on twitter calling content creator a vital part of youtube then asking to write a comment to the FTC

​

its rather ironic that YouTube now has to deal with vague and poorly defined rules being forced upon them after they've spent years upon years doing the same to the rest of us.

2019 November - COPPA doesn't seem to apply to creators

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv0xp8ZLneg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv0xp8ZLneg)

Hoeg Law says the law has nothing on creators so I decided to look up the law and there is nothing with regards to content creators in there, it just a giant mountain of "you need parental permission to collect a kids data and the parents can ask to review or delete the data you collected about their kids" and nothing else.

please read it and tell me I'm wrong:

the law goes after website operators and last I check we don't exactly own the channel since Youtube/Google can kill it anytime they wish and creators don't collect any information so how exactly are creators supposed to comply with the law?

2019 November - Youtube is about to become a warzone because of COPPA - Anything that the FTC considers "children's content" will become unsearchable and lose 90% of current revenue, including "gaming"

2019 November - TheTekkitRealm's youtube channel is hacked and his password was changed by the hacker to the point where he can't change the password anymore. The only thing TTR can do is upload videos. (Vid in comment)
