You Tube & Google’s New Game – Removing Video and Channel Views
You Tube & Google’s New Game.
Published November 9, 2015
You Tube & Google’s New Game. It seems now, if your posts contain certain ‘undesirable’ words, phrases or other content the algorithms will start deducting views from your channel. This amounts to nothing less than a clandestine form of censorship, especially to those who rely on ads for revenue. You Tube claims it was just a glitch and all video views have been restored and they closed out their conversation thread on the topic. I don’t know about you, but the 400,000 [150,000 + 250,000] views I lost on my channel have not been restored.
