YouTube bullying and harassment of gun channels continues…

18/05/22 at 9.08am   /   by Rob Ski   /   15 Comments

Just chilling out before diving into swamps…swamp snakes, here we go!

When I was on US Army duty last week, humping hills and swimming in the swamps, YouTube crew strike down another AKOU video. This time it was AKOU classic: AK47 User Guide – Part 2 (link is to Full30 server so you can actually see it since YouTube disabled video).
Now this is pure example of YouTube employees ignorance, poor on job training and lack of understanding of their own rules and community guidance. Per YouTube’s own “Policies on content featuring firearms“:

“YouTube prohibits certain kinds of content featuring firearms. Specifically, we don’t allow content that: 

YouTube Gun Policies

Intends to sell firearms or certain firearms accessories through direct sales (e.g., private sales by individuals) or links to sites that sell these items.

These accessories include but may not be limited to accessories that enable a firearm to simulate automatic fire or convert a firearm to automatic fire (e.g., bump stocks, gatling triggers, drop-in auto sears, conversion kits), and high capacity magazines (i.e., magazines or belts carrying more than 30 rounds).

Provides instructions on manufacturing a firearm, ammunition, high capacity magazine, homemade silencers/suppressors, or certain firearms accessories such as those listed above. This also includes instructions on how to convert a firearm to automatic or simulated automatic firing capabilities.

Shows users how to install the above-mentioned accessories or modifications.” 

As you can see, none of those “Policies” were violated in videos which were strike down. In AK47 User Guide Part 2 video, I simply take a gun apart and explain to viewers what all those bolt components are and how to take them apart – this is not instruction on manufacturing firearm – this is instruction on regular field stripping of weapon…
In Romanian Paratrooper AK47 – 1080 Later video, I just take my rifle apart and inspect parts for any damages…which again, is not in violation of YouTube policies…
What is really troubling, is fact, that I have actually lost my appeal on it as well, which means someone from YouTube, had a second look and again, incorrectly concluded that my videos are indeed in violation of their rules…This tells me that YouTube employees lack of basic job training and don’t understand their own rules and policies since their interpretation is totally wrong.

Bottom line is, our AKOU channel , now is only one strike away from being completely erased, simply because YouTube employees have no clue about what they are “enforcing”…

    I’m sorry to tell you this but your conclusion of, “This tells me that YouTube employees lack of basic job training and don’t understand their own rules and policies since their interpretation is totally wrong”, is incorrect. They do understand their own rules and policies they just don’t give a fuck. They want to get rid of the gun channels and they know there is nothing you gun channel guys can do about it. They also know that we viewers of those gun channels can’t do anything and even if we boycott using their services, it’s not going to make a big difference in their bottom line. They weaned themselves by demonetizing gun videos so they wouldn’t take a huge hit all at once.

    It’s actually the employees of YT which is owned by Google. These employees are usually in India and apply their personal opinion as they know full well it will NEVER get kicked up passed them to a highest level. That said, Ive been in business web development for 22 years and own some very old outdoor domains and very popular hunting, shooting, and fishing forums network in the past. I am seriously thinking about opening a nonprofit YT outdoor clone and servers that can’t be taken down. The reasons that most of your vids are getting taken down is not primarily YT or Google’s fault. These random video are taken down due to where that server is located hosting your vids and most importantly, the country that it is located. Understand, when you upload, even with the same account, your vids can/are spread out in different server locations. Google/YT must abide by that countries rules as the internet is now ran by ICANN and not the US anymore. Meaning, we use to be protected by our 1st amendment when the US ran the internet as it is now ran by the UN.

    Have you ever checked out Reddit?
    You should. I believe they will allow your videos.
    I actually, personally, have little experience with Redditch, but one of my son’s told me about it.
    I believe they basically could care less who gets offended on Reddit.

      There was an auto-correct mistake, the “Redditch”, is *Redditch.

    When I’m posting, it’s changing the word, automatically, even though I checked the comment before posting. Please check out Reddit.

    Since a federal judge said the prez cannot block twitter idiots how can ANY other public domain sight BLOCK ANY CONTENT?

      Those are whiger party members, only by grouping. Like you said, because they aren’t judges. Those are the lowest of the lowest. THOSE ARE NOT “REAL” POLICE OFFICERS OR JUDGES.

    What has happened? Last video I see everywhere is Pimp AK WASR10. Did the channel go underground or something? Patreons only? I miss my AK video fix.
