the real question is:
Why would they need a service like that?

>>56714217
This was not Google idea

They had a meeting with representatives of the advertising industry who demanded this kind of measures.

You know some leddit moron is going to fuck shit up and pin the blame on us again

Looks like you can contribute by providing closed-captioning and subtitles to videos as well. That's cool.

All-in-all, this looks like it could make YouTube more accountable to its userbase. Giving people who've been doing a good job a direct line of contact with YouTube staff is pretty interesting. More ways to get a hold of the actual humans who work at YouTube has been something that a lot of people have been wanting for ages.

The big-name video creators like h3h3, Phillip DeFranco, Boogie2988, etc. that have wanted YouTube to change and become more responsive should be celebrating this and calling for their fans and subscribers to sign up in the hopes that large swaths of users can finally hold the company accountable for when they do stupid bullshit.

well as YouTube and the Internet in general grow, having a dedicated team for administrating a site becomes more and more difficult

those methods of community curation are very delicate because policies will be abused a lot

i could do this just to piss of normies.
Do these "points" come as Google Play rewards where i can pay with said points for apps?

where did the other thread go?

and I thought 4chan's mods were bad.

Snitches get stitches. Motherfuckers will pay with their skin.

>hey what's up guys its scarce here

>asking why google is encouraging people to voluntarily do unpaid labour for them

hm i wonder why....

>>56716120
Because mob rule is the best way to moderate content.

>>56717384
You missed the part where you can just flag all the videos you want after making a couple hundred subtitles, right? You could make a heroes account at LV3 in a week if you're autistic enough.

I miss the old youtube. This seems to be the direction the internet is heading in general now

>>56714217
>mass flagging of videos

fucking hell, sjws will be all over this

So, their "perks" are being able to beta test new youtube products? You'd think they'd at least reward people with something like free youtube red, free movie rentals, etc... for putting out actual labor. You know, something that can at least be considered to have monetary value (even if shitty monetary value).

this seems like it can be used for evil.

>>56714217
The botnet is no longer controlled by computers anymore, it is controlled by humans as well now.

PLS

>>56721374
Same, it's like watching something getting too morbidly massive for it's own good.

awesome, giving the worst kind of people power over other people. this will turn in to a huuuge shitshow.

MOOT WHAT DID YOU DO?

>>56716120
To take the heat off them for their recent changes to who's allowed to be monetized.

>>56716120
>>56726324
They just don't want to implement a proper moderation and customer support because it would cost money

>>56714217
For what purpose?

>>56714217
Perfect reference for the next 4chan janitor application. You can now say you have done work for youtube/google under the previous experience section.

>>56729878
Thought control, which leads to more money.

Meanie comments & videos = Hurt feefees = Less ad revenue

This isn't merely for deleting illegal content, YT's report function is vague as fuck and it allows you to report stuff for disagreeing with you.

Jewtube is making some very bad decisions

Swearing and profanity in videos drives up view count

This attempt to create a safe space is bullshit

>>56719358
Fuck off leafy

>>56730060
Also I think this whole shitfest was started by leafy

>>56715313
>he does it for free

This is the thing that gets me. Google makes billions you damn well know they could toss a little money into this and get people doing this as their job from home like the people that make videos. Making it free just invites people to fuck around because they're not invested.

This is actually a good idea, I still don't understand how Youtube doesn't have moderators..

I did lol at the top perk being "You get to test our features first!".. I'm a developer and that sounds like work to me, no thank you!

Honestly, we've got to raid this shit before the SJWs do. Let's show YouTube how terrible this idea is by example

>>56732223
ask /b/.
They might help.

>>56726353
Exactly.
Everything a big company does is for profit and pretty much that alone. As a legal fiction a corporation exists for one reason and that is to make profit for its shareholders.

With this initiative they can censor "controversial" content whereby hopefully gaining more traffic and increasing revenue without paying moderators or taking direct blame for takedowns.

Truly diabolical.

Remember when people actually made content because they thought it was funny and all they wanted was internet fame

Now they just make click bait shit to get more of that jewtube ad revenue.
