Chris Worthy  |  Upstate ParentBalancing screen time and physical activity can feel like a losing proposition for parents, but two Spartanburg dads are taking the challenge personally. Justin Rollins, a personal trainer and the father of three young children, is the creator of Freddy and the Fireman, a website and YouTube channel that aims to get kids and parents moving. He works with Pelham-Batesville firefighter Jason Worthy, who is also a personal trainer and a father of four, to add safety tips that engage children and make learning fun. Rollins said the idea started when he noticed that kids, including his, are fascinated with YouTube videos. “I was thinking, why not do something beneficial for kids? I know, it's like throwing a stone in the ocean, but I wanted to put something out there – a healthy option – if they're going to be watching something,” he said. “Let's get them to move, at least.”Rollins said the idea evolved to include fire safety and other tips, along with fun, short workouts that parents and kids can do together. Freddy, a big blue wolf who is the mascot and the site’s namesake, joins in for field day challenges. “My goal is just to get kids

WEST HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA - MARCH 09: Miley Cyrus attends the Versace FW23 Show at Pacific Design ... Center on March 09, 2023 in West Hollywood, California. (Photo by Arturo Holmes/Getty Images)Getty Images Pop singer Miley Cyrus was back on top of the Billboard Hot 100 charts with her hit single "Flowers" – which has became her sixth-straight number one. The track, which is currently the #4 music video on YouTube, has also been seen more than 303 million times since it debuted just two months ago. Miley Cyrus - Flowers (Official Video) The song has already been noted for boosting flower sales around the world, but it has also been widely embraced as a message of self-acceptance by creators on YouTube Shorts, where the song's chorus sound bite has already appeared in nearly 600,000 Shorts, while some of those have received tens of millions of views. It is having a similar impact on TikTok and Reels, Tubefilter.com reported. These short-form video clips are serving to drive interest in 'Flowers,' which is likely music to the singer's own ears. Up-and-coming artists may hope their singles can catch a similar wave via YouTube Shorts – even if it means the work

By establishing the Spy Ninjas universe, Chad Wild Clay and Vy Qwaint created a world in which mild-mannered YouTubers join a team of high-flying crime fighters. Now, the husband-and-wife duo is launching a facility that will welcome visitors to their squad. Spy Ninjas HQ, set to open in the spring, will bring a new YouTube-inspired theme park to the Las Vegas area. Spy Ninjas videos, which feature high-flying stunts and fantasy themes, resemble action-packed video games. To maintain that feel, Spy Ninjas HQ will let visitors “be the game.” Upon entry, guests will be given wristbands that they can use to track their progress across all of the attractions that will be available within the theme park. That system is an example of “IRL Gamification,” which is brought to Spy Ninjas HQ by family entertainment consulting firm Fallout Zones. Clay and Qwaint hope to get Spy Ninjas fans through the door of their new HQ by stocking it will all sorts of thrilling experiences. Two of the big draws — an indoor zipline and an arcade with more than 100 machines — are planned as the largest attractions of their kind in Las Vegas. According to a recent job posting, the Spy Ninjas team is hunting for prop artists

High Court Bans Singer From Hitting YouTube Rival With DMCA Notices (torrentfreak.com) Posted by BeauHD on Tuesday March 14, 2023 @07:20PM from the years-long-disputes dept. An anonymous reader quotes a report from TorrentFreak: The High Court of Justice has issued a permanent injunction to stop a man filing copyright complaints against a rival's YouTube channels. As part of a fraudulent campaign against "the music mafia," the singer used copyright strikes and YouTube's repeat infringer policy to have a music publisher's channels suspended. The background to the dispute is nothing short of extraordinary. The background to the dispute is an extraordinary maze of claims, counterclaims, and bitterness spread out over several years, during which documents were forensically examined and fingerprints subjected to professional scrutiny.

YouTube’s decision to share ad revenue on Shorts last month was intended to help creators make more cash. So far it hasn’t, and creators aren’t sure if (or when) it ever will.Creators can’t see past the fact that they’re actually losing money as a result of Shorts. Their content may be being viewed by more people because Shorts content reaches viewers far beyond a creator’s target audience, but those people aren’t necessarily going to enjoy what they’re seeing. It’s been a bugbear creators have had with Shorts from the get-go.  So when YouTube told creators they could make money from the ads around their Shorts content earlier last month, they were wary that the revenue on the Shorts videos they produced would help alleviate the money they’ve lost as a result of it. Shorts gave creators incremental revenue because it was attracting ad dollars from somewhere they would not otherwise be able to access. But those dollars are far from additive for many creators. It’s only been six weeks since YouTube has offered the ability to monetize Shorts. But creators are far from sold on the idea, according to five talent managers, marketers and consultants, who spoke to Digiday. Collectively

YouTube is a popular platform with over 2.5 billion active monthly users, making it an easy target for threat actors, said AI cyber-security firm CloudSEK. Termed Infostealers, these malware are spread via malicious downloads, fake websites and YouTube tutorials, infiltrate systems and steal information, which is uploaded to the attacker's Command and Control server. "In a concerning trend, these threat actors are now utilising AI-generated videos to amplify their reach, and YouTube has become a convenient platform for their distribution, " said Pavan Karthick, a CloudSEK researcher. The research showed that 5-10 crack software download videos with malicious links are uploaded to YouTube every hour. The videos contain deceptive tactics that mislead users into downloading malware, making it challenging for the YouTube algorithm to identify and remove them. The researchers detected stealer malware such as Vidar, RedLine and Raccoon in YouTube videos from November 2022.

However, she considers it unjust that she is forced to create content to continue supporting her parents’ lifestyle. Claire told her father that she didn’t want to make any more YouTube videos, and he told her that they would have to move out of their house and go back to work, which meant they couldn’t afford “nice things.” She stated that once she reaches the age of 18, she intends to speak out about the realities of being a YouTube star and may file a no-contact order.
