    bout fcking time, I have been reporting fake medical channels to them for literally 10 years and as far as I can tell nothing has been done. But the bad news is that these con artist criminals will just move all their quack content to another video site, and there are plenty to chose from.

      The even worse news is that it probably has to do with tech giants taking over healthcare and they’re probably clearing up conflicts of interest so they can formally offer health advice.

      Well, there are other places to host videos, but there’s nowhere to spread misinformation videos quite as efficiently as on YouTube.

      It’s not enough to simply be able to upload videos, you need a platform that’s happy to push your bullshit onto a large audience of vulnerable viewers, desperate enough to keep them consuming content on the platform that they don’t give a shit about moral bankruptcy. YouTube has played that role amazingly for at least a decade now, and it’s not going to be easy to replace if they should suddenly start giving a fuck.

      It’s lip service. They aren’t changing shit, but even if they do they’ll stop in 6 months once people forget about their commitment.
