Oh look, YouTube did something that upset everybody again.

As videos are being flagged as inappropriate for monetization, all eyes are on YouTube's guidelines for "ad-friendly" content, as well as the crapshoot bots that unpredictably enforce them.

Because, y'know, automated systems are great at determining context.

I really missed you dancing to Chains of Love. Glad you're feeling better. Keep up the good work!

You're dancing! Does this mean the epidural procedure worked? :D

Great work, Jim. Another reasoned, brilliant discussion that coincides with my own pre-existing interpretation of events.

Great video as always Jim! Just a thought; I really wasn't prepared to see those awful gory images halfway through the episode (which I'm assuming were from Hannibal). That kind of thing makes me very uncomfortable times,.. I don't know whether this even applies to other viewers (for me, video game gore is perfectly fine 99% of the time, it's tv/movie gross-out gore that gets to me) , but some kind of warning might be worth considering? I totally understand why you chose to use those clips, they were perfectly relevant to your pont. Feel free to disregard if you don't think it worth considering.

Just. Thank God for you.

Primetime television gave my my two favorite "swear replacement" words, "mamma jamma" and "mickey fickey". That's about all of worth it's done (for me at least) so... wait, where was I going with this? I guess "seeing movies you know will be heavily censored when you see they're gonna be on national TV can be amusing"? Yeah, I'll go with that 'ne.

Many good points, but I don't think it can be both ways viz. corporations- thinking they're "too good" for swear words on one hand and jumping to be part of "House of Cards" or "Hannibal" on the other. There are probably a few corporations that actually complain that because of their "core values" they don't want to be associated with something, but mostly, you still have to trace it back to the profit motive- someone complaining loudly and persistently enough to attract negative attention hurts their bottom line in a measurable way, they have to spend 'x' on PR to balance it out, etc. And, largely, the same for Youtube: the loss on most individual content providers is minimal, the cost of losing a Viacom or putting a fleet of dispute-handlers on the job (versus a much smaller team to deal with whoever is willing to struggle uphill against the robots) is more than they're willing to bear. I also have to suggest that we should hesitate to suggest it isn't a free speech issue *at all*: the Internet plays a significant part in elections these days, and when one of the few widely-viewed forums for small-scale content producers tightens its leash, we're left with moneyed speech that gets a thousand blaring bullhorns and non-moneyed speech that strains to be overheard at a whisper. That's not trivial.
