YouTube Smackdown Off Strike Thread #2
Smackdown Crew
Posted on 05/17/2010 6:20:32 AM PDT by StarCMC
We came back from being "on strike" and began this thread to test the waters at YouTube back on March 15th, and we have met with a fair amount of success! I've been asked a couple of times how we've done, and the folks that work behind the scenes have gone to some lengths to answer that question for us -- not too shabby in the least!
By the end of September we had 932 users suspended and 41,764 videos downed
We went on strike 10/30/09 which meant that we did NOT report activity totals for the month of October at FR -- thus October thru May 8th, we added 172 suspensions and 10,702 videos downed.
Our grand totals are 1,104 users suspended and 52,466 videos downed.
Thank you all for helping try to make YouTube NSFIR -- Not Safe For Islamic Radicals. We really appreciate your help! We've been keeping our eye on YouTube. Apparently some of the big cheese folks over there appear to believe that context makes all the difference about whether a hirabist propaganda or recruiting video is appropriate. It would be nice if their "context" was simply that they wouldn't support anyone who opposes the country that they live in, but unfortunately that's not the case. We'll keep watching. And flagging. The cockroaches keep on coming.
Let's Roll!
As a reminder, here are the steps to flagging:
(H/T to rawcatslyentist)
#1) If you dont have a YouTube account, go sign up for one. You dont have to use it for anything but this.
#2) Click one of the videos in the playlist, let it start and then click the pause button on the player so you dont have to actually watch the propaganda if you choose not to..
#3) Below the video, click Flag"
#4) Choose "Select a Reason"
#5) "Violent or Repulsive Content" works for most.
#6) If not violent, choose "Hateful or Abusive Content"
#7) Next, "promotes hatred or violence"
#8) Where it says please indicate the group attacked choose National Origin.
#9) Where it says provide additional information type or copy/paste in the below statement and then at the very bottom click "Flag This Video"
Providing services to terrorists violates executive orders 12947 and 13224.
ONE MORE THING...a hat tip to others who are working with us...

YouTube wants those of us who subscribe to police the site.
I’m not sure that actually falls under censorship. They proudly proclaim that their members do this.

Good morning! YouTube appears to be going through some sort of
update. Many of our playlists have gone missing - if something
happens to this one, just know it's YouTube and not us.
It's not just the Smackdown Crew that's been affected, so we
don't think, at this point, that we've been targeted! :-) Today's list for flagging:

Three of them are down (can’t remember exactly which ones, and I don’t feel like double-checking).
When the heck did the terrorists start using voice modulation software in their nasheeds, anyhow?

Auto Tune has a free down load. Version 2 point something. Personally I find unnatural modulation to be off-putting.
Text To Speach software is starting to sound more natural, but real recordings are modulated to sound mechanical. Irony?

I have been busier than a one-armed paper hanger around here — I didn’t get to check! Thanks for the update! :)
