Youtube's new rules coming soon
- Thread starter Metalbasspro
- Start date
My guess is we will have 1,324,567 new laws on the books in the next five years.
I'll believe individual content creators are fined/sued when I see it. Completely unrealistic.
I’ve got a YouTube channel of prog bass covers (shameless link below).
I’m not worried about their policies after they claimed my Porcupine Tree cover of “Darkest Eyes” had a copyright claim of the Ramones “Rock n Roll High School” leveled against it, a cover I eventually removed due to the aggravation (I may re-upload it for pure spite).
Idiot AI. No worries, and still shameless here. Idiot AI.

In your YouTube Studio settings, you can mark your entire channel fit for children or not.
YouTube Studio - Settings - Channel - Advanced Settings:
Since I don't post anything targeting kids, I don't have to review each and every video. One setting and I'm good to go.

yeah i went to YouTube studio on a pc and it popped up asking me to make the declaration. over and done with
the demos of my pedals are not geared towards children under the age of 13 or whatever so no biggie

After you do what you posted you still have to go in and select "all videos" and set them to adult as well. Why I don't know, but it's in the instructions here:
Set your channel or video’s audience - Computer - YouTube Help
Sure enough, after setting my channel to adult only I still had to go mark my videos as well.
Anyway done now, so for all the kids out there, Get off my lawn!
Too bad their new rules don't include not blocking videos that fall under fair use. Screw Youtube.
I say this as someone who watches Youtube videos daily, but the fact that artists keep getting blocked for using 30 seconds of a song in an instructional capacity is infuriating.

Well I watched a youtube video from youtube on this. I was able to set my entire channel as a channel that's content is not made for kids.
The problem is even that may not be enough to keep you getting fined. I also believe it won't happen except for special cases, for example where someone's politics is not agreeable to the mainstream.
Indeed
It sounds to me like a lot of noise about very little, if you start thinking about it beyond the headlines.
I'm not denying what you write - you may know more about the topic details than I do. What I will say is that the FCC doesn't have the resources (people/time/budget) to go after every individual who *might* violate compliance rules. They will go after the "big fish" and/or people who violate in the worst of ways (willfully involving inappropriate content for minors).
Here’s a question: If someone who has never worked a real job and has relied on YT video revenue for income and YT changes their policies so the channel is demonetized and/or shut down, is that content creator now able to file for government assistance? Unemployment, welfare, HUD?
I don't think you get fined. If kids are watching your content, then you won't be tracked. If you're not tracked, you get demonetized. This is mostly a concern for people who earn a living (or partial living) from YouTube ad revenue.
Why didn't they just put a requirement to be 13 years old or older to have an account to ACCESS all content? Then everything can proceed business as usual for content creators.
Since they are dropping handling advertising revenue for kids content, there's no reason to continue with that model. They could make a separate YouKidsTube with restrictions that comply with FTC rules for creators to go to there. Or... let some other company start that. I'm not even sure how that would work financially, but someone will figure it out eventually.
I'm not a lawyer, but seems to me that get's them off the hook legally and puts the responsibility on the viewers themselves (and parents) to access appropriate content.
The way they are going now just creates anxiety in their content creators which will lead to less advertising cash flow and open the door for another web startup to compete and take over.

I don't get the worry where kids are concerned. If someone isn't old enough to deal with what they might come across on YouTube then that person is not old enough to be using the internet unsupervised.
Wrong. The FTC made a press conference and admitted they will do a "sweep" of the entire platform and will go after the content creators! Watch he first few minutes of this video it explains it very well.
