I have found recently that many movies I would like to watch are no longer free. It seems that I need to sign up to a particular website giving my Bank details. This seems to me a dangerous practice and I would appreciate your comments. I have requested the cost of subscriptions from the various media but they have failed to send an answer.

I downloaded a video of Charlie Parker performing the (his) song "Perhaps" which on the video was in the key of "C". The download, clicking on the Amazon MP3 to transfer the video to my Amazon music "cloud". Upon replay on Amazon, the key was no longer C but changed to a "B". Thinking that I had downloaded the wrong video ( there were quite a few to choose from) I opened the video again. Checked the key and downloaded again only to discover it was changed, again, to the key of "B". While the cost of $.89 each is not a big deal, the key change is. Is this normal? Is there a solution? Does this happen on every pc. of music downloaded from Youtube?

I have noticed a lot of sensationalist titles uploaded to YouTube lately that are false or misleading. It looks like it is done to get more YouTube hits? It has resulted in me looking elsewhere and discovering other YouTube type channels. Because I have always liked YouTube. I'm concerned that other people are going elsewhere for the same reason. Does YouTube have any way to address this disappointing practice? May I suggest being able to take back my YouTube hit if I thought the video didn't match up?

I USED to be a user of Youtube on a regular basis. Now, I refuse to use Youtube at all.

Reason: Just about every movie I try to view on Youtube, I am redirected to an alternative site where (if i want to see the movie) I am requested to "sign up." This is bull ! Why on earth does Youtube think it is alright to sign up to hundreds of different sites to see different movies ?

Do you not realise that people sign up to one site to view different movies & not the other way around ? This putting of profits before the user may suit Youtube, but I'm afraid it will cost you the loss of more users. I now use Torrent Sites - I don't get the bull.

These people falsely identified themselves to my husband.. saying they were interested in him being a former Navy Seal.. entered our home, with a camera, with they did not have a release for or permission from us. In the end they were ordered OUT OF OUR HOME.. Saying my husband was a "Fake Navy Seal" and posted a video of both of us. They think its a BIG JOKE.. I am a retired law enforcement officer... and I do NOT want a video of ,myself or my family members or our home posted on YouTube. My husband IS a former Navy Seal.. we have his Military Records which we did not show this man. He goes around the country trying to ruin the lives of our Vietnam Veterans.. He is a bully, and caters to "bottom feeders". I am not clear on your response that this does NOT violate our privacy, when you can clearly see us in this video.

Conflict May posts shows from Coast to Coast and other public broadcasts regularly to make money. There were intentional HATE COMMENTS with foul swearing on my show link from April 25, 2015. The show was a huge success for me and for C2C. This entity has many names and should be banned permanently from posting! I wrote to he/she/it and they deleted my show at 30,000 hits in one week. Luckily, I copied it and have posted it with integrity on my channel.

For two weeks or more now my youtube homepage has been covered in complete adult websites. I cant use youtube anymore. Even safety mode is turned on but there are videos that I cant even look at. This is a family pc and I have small sisters so can you please let me know what I can do about this.

The video named "The most shocking video ever" put up by Scientology to give false information about psychology is hate speech, copyright infringement, takes away partial information from research, portrays Neitszche and Pavlov as psychologist and the comments are hissing, hateful bullying, and misinforments for Scientology.

Well, I was watching a YouTube video. I turned on the captions and it was saying things the person on the video was not saying. The girl said," We want to show you!" and the captions said, "Wedding at the Hobbit is." Why was it doing that? Can you please let me know why these are wrong?

You have a seemingly good video setup, BUT it is damning that I can't play Murdoch Mysteries full screen, the other videos I manage to find on your crazy setup goes full screen. Is there something wrong with the videos themselves or can you possibly fix this? It would be nice if you could improve your closed captioning. It is almost laughable seeing what is written for those of us that need captioning. Try it sometime and see what you think...

Too whom it may concern. I don't know who is responsible for youtube website but I do need to bring up your attention that each time when I visit youtube website. I happen to always see pornographic nude woman showing off of themselves while someone is video taping and to my knowledge I feel that this pornographic video that is been shown on youtube needs to be remove because we have a young boy who like to explore youtube but we don't allow him to go further on youtube. This bothers me a whole lot and it very frustrating to see that is it all possible to remove this garbage on youtube? I've been submitting a lot of complaint about it but it never seem that it was taken care off. Please have someone take care of this matter as soon as possible thank you!

I received a message from someone about a statement I made about Houston Rockets star James Hardin's beard about a month ago or more. If you look you will see the comment made, which I responded to. I only responded the way I did because of his comments. I don't appreciate it. It is very rare when I access YouTube, then I have to get this?

I was chatting with a Filipino lady names Abygail and shows nude in skype and video chatting done yesturday. She recorded me and uploaded in you tube and threatening me for ransom money or otherwise she will publish among to my Facebook friends and family. What do I have to do?

I can't get back into my old YouTube channel which has my old videos of when I was young, I'm 14 now 15 in June but my friends have shared then on facebook and now my reputation has been ruined and people are making fun of me, please can you remove them as I cant.

Why does youtube let people upload show with back grounds of the show but only has a 2 to 3 inch screen. very hard to watch so i have to go to another site to watch the show that i was trying to watch on youtube. do these people who upload these shows know what they are doing or they are just trying to be cute. death in paradise, storage wars canada, storage wars and several other show have these 2 by 3 0r less screen to watch, but the back ground is 5 times larger then the watch screen. it's a shame what has happen to you tube with all these morons who try to be cute. i hope that you can do something about it, i like youtube, but if i have to i do have other sites that we can watch.

I'm making the same complaint I made before which are about the "adverts" at the beginning of the videos, I think we shouldn't have to be mandatory subjected to them but instead given a choice of whether we want to have them turned on or off. It is really frustrating having to view something that you are just not interested in, but even though you can skip some of them, others you can't, so you're forced to sit through it, I hope something is going to be done because I feel it's not right to have the advertising imposed on us when all we want to do is to watch videos.

I want to know why it is imperative that every video advertisement that comes across YouTube has to be LOUDER than the volume levels of the video I intended to watch. I cannot tell you how much damage YouTube has done to my speakers, yet alone my ears. I get it, the advertisements pay for the service to watch YouTube for free. However, the increased volumes load on your advertisements mean I have to turn the volume down every time one comes on to prevent blowing my speakers. In the event that I don't get up to mute or lower lower the levels before the advert plays, I get bombed with the nuisance of extremely loud advertisements which effect both the health of my ears and the my audio equipment. Enough complaints about this same issue should be dealt with considerately and professionally. I respectfully request and actually demand that YouTube confront this immediately. If it is not, I will do all in my power to assemble a body of individuals who feel the same way to badger YouTube's corporate offices until this stops.

I posted a video about three weeks ago, Called Rob Ford – (Tom Ford, Jay Z parody)- Dia-Nos [pipeline], it was getting alot of media attention, and being posted on various blogs, it lost its momentum when it got removed about a week ago, I was not informed why it was removed, Which I believe is in your terms of agreements, The song is a strike at the pipelines going through Canada an US, there are no direct stabs at any companies or people. I Know the video was not taken down due to the Instrumental being of a Jay Z song, or it saying Rob Ford, because there are 5 other same parody songs, but they do state and clarify that they didn’t own all images in the video, which I didn’t I want an explanation for why exactly it was taken down. so I can take the right precautions, and re post the video, many large companies and medias are wanting explanations due to its political content I also use my music videos to get me work and money and highly rely on them, I have lost opportunities already.

I was just suspended for 2 weeks on YouTube for harassment. Literally right before I was suspended Voggertv sent me a message quoting something I had written to another YouTube subscriber, on this other person’s channel site, and replied to a response I made to another persons channel.

Voggertv had made numerous threats to this subscriber, chineseinjastylex4, and others, Justin Bieber video, that if anyone who replied to him would have their accounts terminated. I had replied to 4 sites of people which Voggertv had done the same thing.

The suspension I’m under is a result of an accusation of a person who had made dozens of rant videos naming people who in anyway disagreed with him, I know this as Voggertv made one on me. I found this out from another subscriber who stated that Voggertv had caused the termination of many accounts, causing other subscribers to switch accounts before they were teminated by this person.

YouTube’s kangaroo court approach to suspending accounts is unfair in that there is no way to even contact YouTube inorder to defend oneself. Very heavy handed way of doing things, I think. This respite from YouTube has caused me to look into competing services, which I find have quite a bit to offer, and I’ve signed up for a few. They took down his rant videos, and his account no longer exixts, I wonder why?

I would like a video to be removed from YouTube. The video name is “Wayne motley” uploaded by Waukegan citizen. The video mentions Rogelio Fajardo as a drug dealer and it is a false statement. It needs to be removed since the facts are not true.

How do I go about getting a video removed from YouTube for defamation, is there anything other than reporting the video as spam and then hoping that they listen to me and delete it. How can I speed up the process? Any help from Google or YouTube would be greatly appreciated by me.

It's about time these youtube fight videos were banned from youtube there in bad taste most of them are of young teens fighting until one is knocked out. Alot of them are of kids being bullied, punched in the face and most of the time cant defend them selfs shame on youtube for your sick sick minds. If you didnt show them these kids and adults wouldnt video them as much. Because they would have no were to post them most other sites would not allow it, disgusting.

Myself, husband an four kids have bn a user of youtube for many years for differant kinds of videos that are entertaning and fun but these need to be banned as i said there in bad taste. If something isnt done im going to take it further to the BBB or file a complaint with the FTC. I don’t understand how a website like this would allow these teen fighting videos to show kids beating each other up. youtube should block these and discourage them at the very least.

I think that everyone who feels the same way about the shameful, in-human racist comments on YouTube and other sights that allow this type of stupidy, should join together and file a class-action law suit against these companies, since they don’t want to do anything about this terrible display of Racism on their own. These people can control what goes on their sight. This is why things happen like someone harming themselves because of a comment someone made on their face book so something. These YouTube people are just mean, and maybe they think that it’s okay; but, we all know that it is Not!!! And so do the people that allow it to happen on these sights.

We understand the “Freedom of Speech”;but, this goes beyond that. This is to me a form of “Hate” Crime and something should be done about it. I don’t care what you think the “Reason” is for the racism, maybe you have low self-esteem, maybe someone of another race hurt you, maybe they dumped you and this is how you feel. Or maybe this is just the way you are. It really does not matter. Just let it eat away at you if that is your choice. Maybe you should spend the time you take to post these negative YouTube comments to get help for yourself that you so desperately need. Don’t use it to hurt others. Try to find out what’s wrong with you!!!!!!

There is an innapropriate video on you tube which features a horse rider in a riding accident, where the horse rolls on top of her, the end bit shows you a bloodied skeleton face, which screams out at you, labelled Girl in a bad horse accident-MUST SEE I feel these sort of you tube videos should not be allowed on to the computer, as they are scary and horrific. It should be labelled Girl in a bad riding accident MUST NOT SEE and the video disabled or taken off immediately.

This is a scary you tube video where a grey persian cat is scared by a light and something falling nearly on the cat, it is suppossed to be an Indiana Jones type thing. The cat looks scared to death, why do we have these bangs and screams which not only scare me, but a cat. I think this video should be removed and another tamed down video put in its place, without all the scary business take the original one off immediately, as it scares the life out of me and anyone else watching it. I feel for the cat, it looks so frightened.

Someone has created a youtube channel using my full name (which is not a common name), my company and my address. The channel they have set up is an anti islam channel, which has many complaints and abuse targeted at me.(Example in the profile it states my business name and my occupation and says “looking forward to business affairs, as long as you are not a murderous muslim”). My name appears in google searches in the same content as well known neo-nazis / facists / racists. This always appears in the top 3 results. I have asked Youtube to remove the channel and given full details, I have completed there complaints for harassment and identity theft. But they have found no proof of either!!

Youtube state that “For content to be considered for removal, an individual must be uniquely identifiable by image, voice, full name, National Insurance number, bank account number or contact information (e.g. home address, email address).” Youtube have responded that as I am not in the video it cannot help and that I should respond directly to the owner of the channel, which is absolutley ridiculous! (As this is the person who is using my personal name and business address.) This is affecting me personally and my business, additionally in the current climate with the events in Norway, this has brought sharper focus.

A video of a vicious beating at a Baltimore County McDonald’s restaurant went viral Friday, garnering hundreds of thousands of views on various websites and prompting the fast food giant to issue a statement condemning the incident. The video was apparently first posted to YouTube, then taken down by administrators who said it violated the site’s policies. But it sprung back up on various sites and was ultimately linked from the popular Drudge Report, which gave it top billing for much of the day. By mid-afternoon, the video had received 450,000 views on one site alone.

The attack occurred April 18 in the 6300 block of Kenwood Ave., in Rosedale, county police said. Police said a 14-year-old girl had been charged as a juvenile, while charges were pending against an 18-year-old woman. Police said the incident “remains under investigation and the state’s attorney’s office is reviewing the case.” Police said the victim was a 22-year-old woman and said an update on her condition was not immediately available. As the video spread, McDonald’s first acknowledged that it had occurred in a Baltimore restaurant and said they were working with local police.

“We are shocked by the video from a Baltimore franchised restaurant showing an assault. This incident is unacceptable, disturbing and troubling,” the company said in a statement posted on its website. “Nothing is more important than the safety of our customers and employees in our restaurants. We are working with the franchisee and the local authorities to investigate this matter.” A Baltimore County police official said the agency was working to gather information on the incident. McDonald’s did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment.

The video begins with two women – who are black – near a bathroom door kicking and hitting a white woman who is lying on the ground. The racial dynamics of the attack drove much of the commentary on the sites that posted the video. But many expressed shock at the sheer brutality. An employee repeatedly tries to separate them, but the attackers continue to stomp and kick the victim’s head. People yell, “Stop! Stop!” to no avail. An older woman at one point also attempts to pull the attackers away, and is shoved.

About halfway through the three minute clip, the attackers rip a wig off the victim and drag her by her hair to the front door. The camera gets jerky, but one of the woman can be seen landing a punishing blow to the victim’s head as she sits on the floor, and the victim then appears to go into a seizure. Throughout the attack, a man is filming and does not intervene. But when the victim appears to go into a seizure, he yells, “She having a seizure, yo. … Police on their way. Y’all better get out of here.”

Further information about the attack was not immediately available from police. Check back for updates.

I have tried to find the contact information for you tube, but after calling their one phone number, the greeting says, that Google doesnt have any live customer personnel on site. After visiting youtube frequently, I ‘m angry about the amount of racist names and comments, that are being allowed to post. The things said are disgusting, and as a reputable company, who I assume reviews all comments being posting, should be able to filter out evil racist comments.I have read comments about jews, women, children, and many other topics. I hope that my letter inspires outrage, and other intelligent people join me in contacting youtube and demanding change. There is an old saying….the only thing it takes for evil to triumph, is for good people to do nothing.

Re:@911NeverForget

My comments on youtube were blocked without a good reason. He claims they are too many. My comments were always in good taste. They were lengthy, but was in keeping for the goodwill and sympathy of 9/11 victims. The owner (@91neverforget) blocked further youtube usage. But I have noticed numerous comments that contain offensive and vulger language from others including him on the same site.

I have a youtube account and recently i have had 2 youtube friends videos attacked by a youtube user who plainly just wishes to abuse other youtube users with their channel, by false flagging peoples videos. This abuser of their youtube channel has written all over their channel that they intend to ‘ Troll ‘ certain channels to get them suspended, this channel has joined forces with other youtube channels in this ‘ Troll ‘ game. It seems that this channel abuser has found a loop-hole in youtube’s services to it’s account users.

I really am annoyed this this youtuber user is abusing youtube and other youtube account users in this manner. It’s unbelieveable that they can get away with what they are doing. The main abuser of their youtube account goes by the user name of’ TheWizardofTrolls ‘.

I think something should be done about this blatent abuse and youtube should have some sort of complaints procedure, which makes it easy to contact them about matters such as this, which they don’t have at present. Can anyone help in getting this behaviour reported properly and to stop this behaviour happening? Can anyone help please?

YouTube has a retarded copyright video policy. I understand the fact that artists want want to protect their songs and copy right is nothing bad to exist, but, if someone wants to download a song for free, there are tons of sources to do. You can’t ban a video on YouTube of someone because he uses another song. When someone watches a walk through on YouTube, the last thing he is going to do, is download it to get the song. What is more, there are videos especially for listening to some songs, why don’t they ban these YouTube vids? In addition to that, using a song at a vid, is free advertisement. Is there anyone out there that agrees with me?

Have feedback for YouTube?

Thanks for your feedback!

Sorry. Please try again later!
