Halfway through the Meghan story, I was like….man I would have thrown my laptop against the wall.

Frank Castle tell me why I’m not allowed to make my own comments ya goose
@Jamie Kouris I didn’t say you couldn’t.
Are you gonna talk about YT creator called EDP? He haven’t gotten 1M Play Button for a while
Only rape victims and cases of near death should have the right to abort. Spreading your legs and not using protection is your fault so take rssponsibility.
@Jamie Kouris 38.
“I would never, never do such a thing” – guy who did the thing.
Am I the only one who heard his statement like “don’t touch the stove or your gonna get burned?” It sounded to me like he was saying attacking women’s rights is only going to give them a backlash they won’t want.
Kenzie Taylor this is exactly what he’s saying
@Not Gay yes be I don’t view that as a threat. If I told my niece to not touch the stove or she will get burned, I’m not threatening her. I’m letting her know what the concequences of her actions will be.
Kenzie Taylor
Well you could argue that that is exactly what a threat is – informing someone of the consequences of their actions. While it’s obvious that in your example, the thing you are doing is warning someone of a consequence you aren’t in charge of, it very quickly becomes blurry to answer when something is a threat or not. What do you think this sentence is – “if you don’t pass the test I’ll make sure you don’t enter college” spoken by the person in charge of handling tests. Well you could both argue for and against this being a threat. There really isn’t a clear answer.
Not Gay I think we should let them make their decision first and go from there. No matter what’s more likely for them to choose we need to have them make that choice before we can accuse them of anything.
“carefully investigated this and didn’t FOUND any”
Damn, i laughed too hard at that!
At least we know it wasn’t a bot. Bots aren’t that stupid lol
@Gisele Marie chill
She should have replied, “…what did you said??”
@Dad no.
Edit to say that I missed a golden opportunity to say “you aren’t my father” and I’m sad.
@Dad Why should she “chill”? She’s absolutely 100% right. YouTube is at fault here, and it’s well past time *someone* held YouTube accountable.
I don’t want any more “stories” on any other apps. Instagram’s stories are enough.
Can we have a DAMN SIMPLE EDIT BUTTON, PLEASE TWITTER.
shrimpified please!
Man, this video opens with a story criticizing YouTube and it doesn’t appear in the sub box… strange.
Was in my sub box
Uncle Richard’s Smoke Detector was in mine. Did you set it to all notifications, or just some?
REMEMBER: a fleet may be temporary, but a screenshot lasts a lifetime
this comment uses better grammar than youtube’s customer support emails
I doubt anyone would take screenshots of the average users tweets
Imagine using photoshop to change a fleet to say or show something that the original fleet did not say or show. Cancel culture operates on guilty until proven innocent. So you may get cancelled for things you never said or showed because you were not able to prove you did not say or show something.
@Brian people would if what they said was offensive or stupid lol
That’s exactly what I thought haha I think it’s more for people and situations like the Kevin Hart one with his old ass tweet about the dollhouse, I think they wanna stop people from being able to go back five years and find a tweet to ruin a career
Her: “Don’t touch your face”
Literally every Nerve cell in my face:
*They call me Cuban Pete*
*I’m the king of the rhumba beat*
*When I play the maracas*
*I go chick chicky boom, chick chicky boom*
Too tier comment to be honest
Bruh you just made my day. I even went back and checked out the scene.
Bless you.
LMAOOO
😂😂😂 This comment needs way more attention.
This is meme-able
They should have called them “Yeets” instead of “Fleets.”
Fleets just make me think of the navy.
Comments:
10% – opinion on the abortion case
20% – fleet memes
30% – Wow I feel bad for Meghan
40% – lol I toch mi face
Thanks now i dont have to scroll while the vidoeo plays
@Allyson Phillip Any time fam!
from now on, THIS will be the comment I seek in every video.
haha I’m 40%
Twitter missed a great opportunity to call them “Yeets”
Thank god they didn’t. It’s such an annoying word.
Get some “BEETS”
Is should be Y.E.T.T.S
Y
Even
Tweet
This
Shit
@Jordynn Turner I endorse this wholeheartedly. #2020 #voteyetts
You’re 14, aren’t you?
The first 20 seconds had me laughing so hard I was coughing violently because I’m sick. xD
Sick you say 🧐
She honestly has plenty of reason to even sue YouTube for that. That impacts her job and her public image with her viewers. That is not okay.
@AbnormallyNormal // but cant rhey claim she failed to protect her own account?
Remember Astartes channel…
zahedah80 I think she said in the video that she had two factor authentication, used strong passwords (think stuff like Qvj7bfx6$&666fhdj), had 2 back up emails (one being a yahoo) and used different emails for both her channels. She could argue that she had done everything they offered, to protect her account. She could probably sue for the loss of revenue and the horrible support.
@Sabont Magont oh wowwww. I wonder how the hackers were able to get in??? What a mess!
@Sabont Magont It seems a little hard to believe she _actually_ had good security like that and still got compromised. Didn’t she say something about improving her security practices since she first had issues? Is this what she practices now, or when she got compromised?
To break into an account with that security you’d have to directly steal the password from somewhere (a hack into her computer, perhaps, or a man-in-the-middle attack on a wifi network could do that), _and_ somehow get access to the authentication tokens, which would mean stealing or cloning her phone or somesuch. That’s a serious targetted attack…
Also, didn’t she say that the email attached to her account was compromised? That can be Game Over when it comes to internet security, as control over that account is so frequently used as proof-of-identity online.
Am I the only one that gets a really ominous feeling from the whole Meghan Rienks situation? It feels so creepy
Our new overlord the Algorhythm has taken over YT and is learning to handle customer support on its own.
Very Black Mirror to take over someone’s channel, continue to upload as if it were them and offering a chokehold contract telling you not to sue and no content is kept.
It astounds me that a company as large and resourceful as YouTube handled it the way they did. Absolutely unacceptable
“at this point im not even the person this happened to and i’m already exhausted” and angry. exhausted and angry. ugh. thank you for covering it tho Phil. there are so many other creators out there who are getting hit by this and not getting help with it. something needs to change.
That finger lick caught me off guard. How perfectly ironic.
Gamma well technically a tongue isn’t part of the face. 😉
“Help, Youtube, my account has been hacked”
“Have you tried turning it off and on again?”
Automated response LOL
Yup
Youtube be treating this girl like they’re The Rock.
“Whats your name”
“Its-”
“IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT YOUR NAME IS”
ROBOTPETER101 underrated comment
She should just sue them. Like yo they basically just told you how at fault they are considering they asked not to sue them…..
The neutrality and independence of your SCOTUS is a joke (from an Australian lawyer) Who thought it was a good idea to have the president elect the justices?
@Austin Jurgle Pffh “checks and balances”.. your checks and balances are based on a honor system in a country where the ruling party has no honor and zero intentions of following those “checks and balances”.
@Austin Jurgle that doesnt explaine why anyone thought the scotus judges should be chosen by the president. It’s a huge issue because it puts control of the top levels of the judicial wing in the hands of the executive. That breaks any level of separation. Its dumb.
Seems like FDR thought it was a good idea when he allowed partisans in. Now look at where this has gotten.
@Captain Obieso The supreme court decides on whether laws passed by the legislative branch are constitutional. If the legislative branch chose who is on the supreme court, they would be able to say that any law is constitutional. If the supreme court chose their own members, it would lead to a lot of collusion and possibly bribery and stuff like that. Since the president in theory isn’t making laws, just signing them, he’s the “best” person to choose. That’s why the system is set up that way.
It probably should be a voted position, but the founding fathers and the government don’t trust the american public
@Timanom exactly my point. It’s a system built for collusion. A backdoor in an otherwise sturdy framework.
I like how YouTube basically said “don’t worry, you weren’t talking to a machine, you were talking to a real person who was just insanely incompetent, nothing to worry about”
Captain Risky they would have been better off just saying it’s machine 😂 the way the “support“ handled this situation is so embarrassing
