Youtube

By V. Gnana 16 July 2020 In recent weeks, YouTube has censored several podcasts of Tamil-language WSWS articles uploaded to the Tamil WSWS Facebook page via YouTube. The administrators of the Tamil WSWS Facebook page challenged each of these acts of censorship, and each video has been made publicly available again, but after several days’ delay. Even though YouTube’s decision to re-post each video after censoring it makes clear that the Tamil WSWS is not violating YouTube’s Community Guidelines, this censorship is continuing. YouTube has repeatedly sent the following message to the YouTube channel posting podcasts of Tamil-language WSWS articles: “As you may know, our Community Guidelines describe which content we allow—and don’t allow—on YouTube. Your video was flagged to us for review. Upon review, we’ve determined that it violates our guidelines and we’ve removed it from YouTube.” The censored podcasts warned of the dangers of a US-led war against China in the region, of mounting police violence or of military rule in the United States or in Sri Lanka. YouTube blocked Tamil versions of these articles for several days after they were flagged by unnamed users: June 16: Would-be führer Trump steps up coup plotting June 17: The protests against police murder: The way forward June 22: Police violence and class rule June 25: India and China remain on knife edge as war tensions continue July 2: Hands off the Sri Lankan Trotskyists—SEP demands military stops harassing its election candidates in Jaffna There should be no mistake about the political significance of censoring these articles. Thousands of workers and youth follow WSWS reports and statements in Tamil via social media. YouTube censorship aims to prevent the Socialist Equality Party (SEP) of Sri Lanka from alerting Tamil-speaking workers in Sri Lanka, India and around the world in a timely fashion…

AFTV has made the headlines once again after one of its regulars was removed for making a racist comment about Tottenham forward Heung-min Son. Claude Callegari, a pundit for the popular YouTube channel, could be heard saying ‘DVD’s going off’ when the South Korea international was withdrawn in stoppage time of Spurs’ 2-1 win over Arsenal in Sunday’s north London derby. AFTV AFTV is known for its over-the-top rants about Arsenal It’s the latest moment of controversy for Robbie Lyle’s AFTV, which has been no stranger to criticism in the past. Many within football, including Gunners right-back Hector Bellerin and Gary Neville, have taken issue with the platform over its content, which often includes angry rants and violence among supporters. Indeed, talkSPORT’s very own Simon Jordan once had it out with Lyle live on air after labelling AFTV ‘drivel’ and claiming ‘it thrives on toxicity, it’s a commercial venture and the guy makes a fortune’. Simon Jordan goes head-to-head with AFTV's Robbie Lyle is must-listen talkSPORT debate Arsenal have distanced themselves from the channel and made it abundantly clear it is not an official voice for the club. But despite all that, AFTV has become a cultural phenomenon, paving the way for a new form of punditry, whether that’s a good or bad thing. Its success and popularity is undeniable, with more than one million subscribers on YouTube, and many other supporter groups have followed suit. AFTV Claude was removed from the channel on Wednesday How did it start? Lyle, a former BBC reggae host, quit his job as a surveyor to launch AFTV in October 2012. The platform was designed to give a voice to real fans with real opinions amid a growing sense of frustration with the established group of television pundits. Its rise came about mainly…

Menarini Korea’s online advertisement of an athlete’s foot treatment depicting a pharmacist as a mere drug seller caused an instant backlash from pharmacists. The company immediately deleted the ad on YouTube, apologized to pharmacists, and promised to prevent a similar mistake. A YouTube advertisement of Fulcare Nail Lacquer, an athlete’s foot treatment by Menarini Korea, caused controversy among local pharmacists. (Menarini Korea) The Gangnam-gu Pharmaceutical Association, a branch group of the Seoul Pharmaceutical Association, released a statement on Wednesday to criticize Menarini Korea’s YouTube ad of Fulcare Nail Lacquer (ingredient: ciclopirox). In the online video ad, a pharmacist fails to understand a visitor’s explanation about the athlete’s foot symptoms and passes Fulcare Nail Lacquer to another consumer who asks for the product, without giving any advice. As the ad's content caused a stir in the pharmacists’ community, the Gangnam-gu Pharmaceutical Association officially requested Menarini Korea’s apology and discontinuation of the ad. “We, pharmacists, felt a sense of shame to see the ad of Fulcare where a consumer picked and purchased an over-the-counter drug without any advice from a pharmacist. The ad featured only two hands of the pharmacist as if the pharmacist was just a simple drug passer,” the association said in the statement. The pharmacists' image has been recently downgraded because they had to sell the government-regulated masks amid Covid-19, the group said. Under such circumstances, Menarini regarded pharmacists as mere drug distributors, it claimed, demanding the company take every measure to prevent a similar mishap. The association threatened that if the company does not take any measure, it would return all Fulcare products and start a campaign for correcting the ad. Pressured by the mounting criticism, Menarini Korea apologized to pharmacists in the afternoon of the same day. “This video ad hurt the feelings of pharmacists who spared…

Being honest it works for children, adults and basically anyone who enjoys video content. But how is it even possible if YouTube is a website?  That so far its platform doesn’t have the opportunity to have the videos previously loaded? Because it only allows you to start loading the video you have selected to be watched online. A system that works very well, but only when the internet is working properly.  What happens in those cases when the connection is bad, slow, intermittent or even null? YouTube stops loading and eventually the video will be stopped too and with it the amusement…. How to deal or avoid this? The internet offers some YouTube to MP3 MP4 WAV and FLAC downloaders, a great option that works by converting the video into mp3 or mp4 format. This allows you to save YouTube videos as a regular file in your PC, and the best part of it is that you don’t need to pay for anything. But there are two different types of converters, the websites, and the extra software: In websites like Evano.com – free video and audio editor online software, you will have this done by a fast and safe system with a user-friendly process, you won’t need any previous registration or personal information.  The other option –even when it is less recommended- is downloading software on your PC, It will automatically download the videos from YouTube. But here you need to be really careful because some could be potentially harmful to the system. Another point against would be that since it’s something extra that you need to download, it takes up space in your PC’s storage, but at the end it also allows you to have your favorite videos saved. It’s a great option for children’s entertainment because you can…

Newsfeed His AIDS foundation launched the COVID-19 Emergency Fund to help vulnerable people living with HIV. July 15, 2020 • By Trenton Straube Are you a fan of “Rocket Man”? What about “Bennie and the Jets” or “Don’t Go Breakin’ My Heart”? Or maybe you prefer Elton John’s ’80s and ’90s hits, like “Sad Song” and “Candle in the Wind.” Whichever of the rock icon’s styles gets you going, now’s a great time to revisit his live performances on YouTube.

Back in the day, YouTube was the hub of creativity. It's easy to get nostalgic about "old YouTube" because nowadays, it seems like there is drama on the platform from left to right. Top-performing YouTube stars such as Jeffree Star, Shane Dawson, Logan Paul, and Trisha Paytas are getting cancelled on a daily basis, and these influencers are disappointing us with ignorant comments and deceiving behavior. Because of all this, it makes us really miss the old school days of the platform, back when the sole purpose of the website was to make people smile and laugh with unique videos. With that being said, here are the 10 best retro youtube shows and channels from years ago that you might have completely forgotten about. 10 POTTER PUPPET PALS Potter Puppet Pals was a cheery musical saga dedicated to all the Harry Potter fans out there who couldn't get enough of the series. Thirteen years ago, you couldn't go anywhere without hearing people belting out the Potter Puppet Pals "Mysterious Ticking Noise" song. Even people who didn't consider themselves to be Potter fans had the entire song memorized, and everyone would sing it with their friends while giggling hysterically at the lyrics. It remains a YouTube classic that still holds a place in our hearts to this day. 9 LIAM KYLE SULLIVAN (MUFFINS/SHOES/LET ME BORROW THAT TOP) Before Jenna Marbles and even before Smosh, Liam Kyle Sullivan was the original YouTube funny guy. Back when YouTube was all about making homemade skits with low-quality costumes and cheap camera equipment, Sullivan was the master of making people laugh with his silly little videos. His most popular skits included "Shoes," "Let Me Borrow That Top," and "Muffins," where he played outlandish characters with the most quotable punchlines. He was an unforgettable legend back in the day, and…

There's a new slate of 19 video games coming to cloud streaming service Google Stadia, with a sizable proportion well suited to the creation of accessible, reaction-friendly content for YouTube viewerships.When Google Stadia launched in November 2019, it was with a 22-strong roster that included "Assassin's Creed Odyssey." "Destiny 2m" "Mortal Kombat 11," "Red Dead Redemption 2" and three "Tomb Raider" games.Eighteen of the initial 22 could be said to appeal to traditional console gamers, but Google's latest pitch, as unveiled during a July 14 Stadia Connect video, appears more cognizant of another part of its customer base on YouTube.Not that its YouTube Gaming audience is anathema to core console and PC games -- far from it -- but YouTube has nonetheless given rise to innumerable variety gaming channels that feature engaging, novel, experimental experiences, often sourced from independent developers, and provoking strong and often surprising reactions in hosts and viewers alike."Outcasters," then, is quite a different prospect from the studio behind first-person shooter "Brink," the multiplayer modes for "Gears of War 4" and "Gears 5," and the PC version of "Halo: The Master Chief Collection."Instead of a sci-fi shooter, it's a bright and vibrant multiplayer scramble, whose characters look like rascally Funko Pops and whose curved-trajectory projectiles have more swerve on them than a Lionel Messi free kick.There's no date or price but it's exclusive to Stadia, fits well with the variety gaming sentiment and, given that other Stadia Connect titles are due by February 2021, doesn't appear too far off.Tactical, trap-setting, tower defense game "Orcs Must Die! 3" is available now and is also hoping to benefit from an Only on Stadia designation, while three untitled projects from games studios Harmonix (music-oriented "Rock Band" and "Thumper"), Supermassive Games (horrors "Until Dawn" and "The Dark Pictures Anthology") and Uppercut…
