The loss of trust from advertisers is catastrophic. Can Adwords/Adsense recover from this? Usually if a product is negatively affected in the market to this extent, it needs a big retool. Perhaps the whole concept of ads, how they are served and who sees them, will be re-evaluated? Certainly lots of unknowns going forward....
They are not gone as in permanently gone, but I deleted it all and will start with kids friendly videos that nobody can complain about. No excessive candies, no food wasting, no big toys, nothing dangerous, nothing too silly, nothing that can be misinterpreted as violent/aggressive and also make sure we don't record anything near beaches/swimming pools. I reuploaded one video on Kids Toys and Adventures just now (our recent upload) but now without compilation attached to it. I think the video should be kids friendly enough, hoping youtube will re-enable my monetization the coming weeks/months.
Well this is the second time this is happening in the year and in a period of less than 9 months. YouTube shows the will to do it - by removing without second look videos or even channels that even slightly show signs of inappropriate content.
I shot two videos in spain this summer and I’ve spend a lot of time scanning each frame for boobs and blurring them out.
My wife talked me into nerf actually while I was not sure if it as advertizer friendly, I wanted more silly stuff while she had hollywood style cartoons in mind that made the girls look tough and cute at the same time. On other occasions she talked me out of certain trends, like wasting food. We had a lot of m&m’s videos where we seem to waste them, but in reality we just shot the same m&m’s using different shots and using them for 1,5 years already. We call them our stunt-m&m’s
