  • This guy is right. Let's censor the internet!

  • Comment removed

  • I want to kick his mothafucking punk ass so bad. No its not your box douchebag. That box belongs to all of us. We all own it equally. Its not about ownership or fucking capitalism which is a bullshit system, its about building a community and letting people do whatever they want cause they are all equal. Chill the fuck out and listen to some sublime and go smoke a bowl in the woods. It will make you see things differently.

  • Why are you trying so hard to act and sound black? 20 years from now you will see how ridiculous you look and act.

  • What about all the pornography that YouTube allows??? That's appropriate for children?? As with any web site, children have to be supervised if you care about their surfing!! I'd rather they hear swearing (you never swear at home in front of them??) than seeing porno. Swearing they'll learn in the streats. There is no preventing that! You'e ability to protect your kids is very limited. Pray a lot, dude. Maybe they shouldn't watch YouTube?

  • you do know...that all this Violents on internet..its all BullSHIT

    i see all this voilents and i say WTF you know why i say wtf? because its all FAKE

    and even if its not fake...i say SO WHAT? the man died big deal....thats the world if you dont show your kids that the world is cruel they will never learn to live the REAL life.....

  • You talk with the fluidity of a preacher...you should be some kind of self help public speaker.

  • I agree 100 percent. :)

  • very well said but you must agree that censorship is a slippery slope and there are "moral police" and and example of the "my box" use to exclude minorities from buying white owned houses. there definatly needs to be a rating system and filters definatly, i dont want to hear someone fart in a mic and shout the F word it has no pourpose other than to offend. thank you for your insiteful video.

  • REAL BRUV, TOTALLY REAL

    Activeminded

  • You are a very smart man

  • @alasanof Fucking dumbass. You two are douchebags.

  • Last thing dude when you make another video wear a fucking blouse and mini skirt and wear some make up also cause you sound like a complete bitch for real and also dude if your so concerned what your children look at set up parental controls for the internet limiting them to what they can surf or not but hey I guess PARENTS now a days gotten stupid if I had a website like Youtube I would not censor anything why because there are damn fucking parental controls but it seems your lazy to set it up.

  • @SuperBiohazard13 dude how about go fucking urself bro, soul is just worried about his kids and the youtube black out is dumb. really?

  • Hmmm you got 2 kids and you don't want them around profanity and mature shit well once they hit 18 they can do whatever they want and if your over here preaching to us not to cuss and shit cause you have kids don't put them in a public school then you know why cause they gonna be around profanity put them in a private school but I guarantee they will still learn cuss words oh and don't let them watch t.v. or movies or play games since your so caring dude get a life.

  • Stupid fucking video I cuss all the time and nobody looks at me funny LOL! dude your a fucking joke and plus if people don't like the freedom of speech that AMERICA allows us to have then go fucking live somewhere else but come back to reality and stop living in fantasy land cause ain't no one perfect and ain't shit gonna change so fuck you and have a fucked up day PEACE.

  • Good video. :) Well said

  • imma call you jerry x ^.^

  • "Profanity is a crutch for the conversationally handicapped." ~ Mark Twain

  • Also, the changes are by google, a big money eating corporation, making it so we don't matter and the advertisements do. These advertisements pay google, and they keep changing it and changing it for more and more money.

  • you only say this because you are a very small partner channel, and you posted this video in hopes of youtube featuring you.

  • I agree with you whole heartedly, seriously i do believe you don't have to to Swear just to get your way. Its a retarded way to do things. From my point of view really change is a good thing it helps prevent problems from coming up in the future and keeps little disputes down.

  • I think the new beta version is going so over dramatic, its not like the blackout was gonna work anyway, 45% of youtubers dont care about the change, adding on that 29% of youtuberas are paid for there videos. Odds where agenst the blackout..

  • right damn right(damn isn't considered cursing where i live remove comment if nessasary) i totally agree why do ppl have to swear and curse it don't make too much sense so peace out man

  • i agree

  • Ahmen dude me and my gf are having a kid and i agree with you i dont want my kids seeing all the cussing and crap they let on here so yeah 5/5 consitter yourself subcribed to and favreted laterz

    -Beastii

  • yay I agree!

  • google owns the box now

    it sounds like ur gonna b overprotective of ur children

  • go kids!

  • Go children! :D your so right im sick of "adults" being totally rude, like comments i can see right here. Like with michael jackson, go onto his video and hes being totally cussed, i dont wanna see that.. im now against the youtube blackout

  • made a point

  • what is wrong with you, did you even watch the video? i'm serious..people have there right to say what they want here you are looking up every cuss in the book to say at him. Not every agrees but there is a thing called respect...jeez...go get manners when you comment someone's video

    2 digitilsoul --->

    anyway i thought i was for the blackout but..really ou changed my mind entirely..i agree with everything you say..Youtube won't change..even if we protest..they can do what they want.

  • i actually was a participant in the blackout and you know what it did? absolutely nothing it was as big a failure as the last one

  • You are naive for using curse words on the internet. And you have such bad grammar. You never say stuff on the internet that you don't say to peoples faces normally. I doubt you talk like this to your friends.

  • Comment removed

  • If Google didn't own that box then i would agree with you, but google destroys everything, and we need the orriginal youtube owners back, the ones who listened to us.

  • hah xD yeah it´s their box, but if they want poeple to have more fun, let them chose, which channel they want to, it´s just about the channels

  • that was pretty stupid...

  • The "Great Blackout" isn't going to make YouTube change their mind! So what is the use? I am just wondering.

  • the new design sucks youtube gets payed for every click on the videos booooooooooooo

  • I completley agree with you.

  • i actually LOVE the new channel it's kinda stupid for us to HAVE to logout for a day. THATS IMPOSSIBLE haha ;)

  • I absolutely agree. The new channels ROCK!

  • Fuck you ugly fag. The new design sucks like you and your fans.

  • good point about the swearing and cussing - does that include the comments - i suppose it does? age restriction is a good idea. though to trust you tube i.e. google i.e. a multi national corporation i feel is a little niave man. 5 stars for the vid and im subscribing. peace x.

  • NATIONALISE / WORLDALISE YOU TUBE

  • This vid is sooo true!!! U GO MANNNNN!!!!!

  • They've done something to imeem. It was a fun place I came to everyday and made new friends and everything. It was more than just music now their saying it's just a music place and people are upset about it.. I say it was a great website. It was my best place. This is my next best place.. and their doing stuff that I don't understand well. I'm like, why are they doing this. This website is perfect as it is. There could be some upgrades but it should still be the same somewhat.

  • seems this man has no idea what the black out really is or means or reasons, i dont trust what there doing here on youtube, 98 percenct dont want the new channel layout, thats bad conduct, i dont lie down with such freedom givin to me and then google buy youtube and statrt taking it all away,

    this man is an idiot and has no idea why people are angry ,

    oh notice im angry but i didnt swear, lol!!!

    digital has no soul

  • So this was about cursing? O_o Really now.

  • You're pretty.

  • I support your opinion. A lot of the people who do not support the beta channel got suspended because they were going too far in their little 'campaign'.

    And for the people who are commenting on this and saying " YOU SUCK" or "THE NEW BETA CHANNELS SUCK", people have their own opinion. I believe the 1st amendment gives the people freedom of speech and opinion, so let the people speak out their opinion.

  • dog i love that u want your children to be safe thats great. i todly agree with u. though im only 13 most people are going to say oh whats she know about anything! but i still agree.

  • This guy looks like a real nob!

  • yup

  • Wow, I read the comments before I saw the video and expected you to be very stupid. O_o Sorry.

    You're completely right.

  • no hes wrong, i mean yea thye can do what thye like with youtube, but with such a huge number not likeing any of the changes google have done since they bought youtube there being idiots and about to lose the so called ''you'' tube, this is about freedom of expression, the media have flooded in and now google wants us out, anyone who cant see that is really sleeping through reality!

  • PSHH!

  • i see what you mean but! they should atleast give us a choice not force it on us thats not fair

  • NO NEW CHANNEL!

  • YOUTUBE BETA CHANNELS SUCKS

  • no it doesnt, but it being forced apon us is just wrong, so u know what, FUCK THE BETA CHANNEL!!!

  • i agree

  • Hmm the beta channels came originally from partners. I know is not right to swear, and some of the spamming kill the protest. About... I don't trust you. My two cents.

  • im a kid too im only 11 but i understand what your saying all my friends swear and think their cool but theyre not it looks like they were taught wrong by their parents and such but im SO relieved to se that an adult thinks the same way i do thanks alot :)

  • normally i don't do a lot of swearing, only every once in a while when i get angry, or excited about something. but still, i have the right to express myself how i choose, & i don't appreciate someone trying to tell me how to talk or whatever. i'm particpating in the blackout, so THAT'S my opinion!!!

  • let's be realistic...blackout, aint gonna happen! And about the new channels... you can CHOOSE, YOU'VE GOT THE OPTION to use the old or new channels, why does everyone complain?

  • actually no, you cant choose.

    Youtube is planning of replacing your old design channels for those beta CRAP ones.

    With no way to switch back. I created a new account to see if I could switch, but if your new at outube your stuck with beta.

    Thats what people hate and thats what we are trying to avoid

  • because its ass!

  • I share ur thoughts =D

  • YouTube can do whatever the fuck it wants. No one is arguing that. But it is very ironic that it's called "YouTube" if it isn't actually about "You". Might as well call it "MeMeMeME!Tube"...

    So, why can't we swear? Because "You"Tube doesn't like it. That's all. Whether it's right or wrong to swear in public is totally irrelevant. Putting limits on what can and can't be said is actually limiting freedom of speech in this context. This is fine, but now we need an ACTUAL YouTube to compete.

  • yup.

  • or what about EgoisticTube?

  • THANX!!!! 4 THE SHOUT OUT!!!!

  • This video states the truth. As much as we would for example hate the new beta design, this site is not ours. Simple as that. In the end Youtube is trying to improve itself for users' pleasure. (though not forgetting that google is a company and keeping things running requires money) Of course people are allowed to state their mind but this sort of mass hysteria is plain stupidity. A polite message is allright but encouraging people to rise against the site in this matter is short-sighted...

  • Yeah, the box analogy makes a good point. If, for the sake of arguement, EVERYONE participated in the Blackout, and YouTube was a wasteland, I think they'd just get rid of the site as punnishment for being so ungrateful, because YouTube's CEOs know that a lot of us practically depend on YouTube, and that deleting it would put us in our place.

    The cursing speech was very inspirational. Very good point. ^^

    Bravo, man. Bravo.

  • who the fuck care if it was a fuckin blackout

  • this is true im 12 years old thats true i hate getting on youtube when my parents are around i dont want to get in trouble just from people yelling and cursing

  • Then GTFO. Simple.

  • I can see where your coming from.

    But the new bet should be an option, because everyone (everyone inside the box and the box owner) are happy.

  • How much are they paying you to be here today?

  • Bravo, well stated!

  • Yes, we dont own YouTube, but we are users at that site.

    If they decide to ignore us completely even though they could see the results of our actions(YTBlackout) and keep going down that line, I might consider leaving YT.

    I like everything nice, simple and containing alot of information(videos) and the beta takes that away.

    A petition against the beta at PetitionSpot already has 3,230 signatures

  • I do like the format. But I don't like it how you can view all the videos right at the channel..

    But, the way the channel is made, is cool.

  • I like you the howl age filter can be kinda inconvenient at times but it helps to screen things that could scar my little brain.

  • but on the thing it says only people who have just joined will automatically have beta dont thumbs me down read the thing

  • lol Im SOOOO confused! Do you rly own youtube?? and whats all this stuff bout a blackout?? AHHH I AM SOOOO CONFUSED!! hahah somebody PLZ explain this to me!!!!

  • he is saying IF he owned it he can do wat eva he wants with it.. and the blackout thing is that a lot of ppl arent happy with the new channel designs (i think its coz its confusing 2 use)

  • no its cuz they make us have all these changes and no freedom it is no longer YOUtube

  • It would be nice if they let us vote for stuff...

  • yea

  • lol OHHHH! hahah thnx for explainin! XD

  • one word for this: win

    i subbed just for this i never really chose a side but you make so much sense it really made me think. its not our site and its free. thank you

  • At first you make a good point. YouTube IS owned by someone to do what they wish with it. But by it's very nature it's also a public forum in which Google makes money by us clicking around watching videos. This makes us CUSTOMERS. If we the customers of Google/YouTube don't like the new product offered. It then becomes our right to display our dissatisfaction, and have a real hope to be heard, responded to and see Channel 2.0 abandoned. And we live happily ever after...

  • how much did youtube pay you to make this video?

  • LOL

  • your point is gay.

    we should just choose between the two channels. so people who want the new one can HAVE the new one, and people who have the old one can keep the old one.

    its fair and simple and then everyoone is happy.

  • there is nothing wrong with saying swear words. if kids see it then there parents are not watching what there doing. but youtube could make it so they have to gave a bd out to see it.

  • and now theres another blackout happening. . I'm not doing it. It is never going to work anyway

  • trust me, your kids probably know bad words already.

  • PREACH! =D nice video

  • ONE MORE TIME? That's on that Yammaha piano thing...

  • youtube blow up on july 5th! everyone start commenting "blow up"on as many youtube videos you can

    this is no joke, everyone is going to do it,

    spread the word!! we need your help, thanks.

  • @animalman1122, I'm not going to you twat so you failed on your third line.

  • k i didnt mean it like u think i just wanted people to comment the same thing on different videos. blow up was the first thing that popped into my head

  • Yeah, don't bother, it won't achieve anything.

  • ur right just like that fred thing

  • Honestly man I agree w/ ya 100% on this, I mean straight out if a video is too graphic for children then there should be an age restriction on it, simple as that, now completely taking it out of the picture i believe is wrong, and i dont mean to piss ppl off, but alot of ppl cant get their heads outta their asses an show the vids to kids, so if they do fine I wont complain I mean they gotta do it then so be it, but Ill just say this to yt an u know who u are...GET UR HEADS OUTTA UR ASSES thanks

  • you're cool :3

  • what about the cleveg in your resident evil vid doulbe standered

  • I Agree And Disagree I Mean Look At The Title Brodcast Yourself I Mean Your Not Really Brodcasting Yourself If Your Not Brodcasting What You Like I dont Swear But You Might As Well Call It (Brodcast Yourself But Dont Swear), Yes There Could Be Less Internet Put Downs But Thats Just My Opinion.

  • Fuck.

  • i wonder if he knows it's spelt wrong :D

  • i really agree with this guy. we all know ppl who think they gotta cuss to express themselves. we all have a right to voice our oppinion. however, we can do it in a civilized manner. this guy rocks

  • Fuck, your box rox!

  • True that. Swearing isn't really needed. However, countries like Japan that don't censor their cartoons and programs so severely are better off than Americans. Many countries try to ban marijuana but countries like the Netherlands allow small consumption of it and they are better off.

  • Ummm Japan censors their porn, they put pixalated boxes over insertion between two people. Is that better porn? I think not, you probably wouldnt like it would ya. LOL

  • I was never talking about porn. Shows the mind you have. I was talking about the daily cartoons in Japan. Like we got Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon.

  • You know im glad there is people like Digital Soul here who is looking out for the right things, and so what if some of you leave youtube, heck, It will make it a better place for the rest of us. So go ahead, go to veoh, go to metacafe, go to dailymotion, for all i care at least i wont have to worry about stumbling into a video that will offend me. good riddens

  • if you had no kids you'd cuss.

  • lol

  • Comment removed

  • I did read that. There are other ways to link, hon. Plus, let's say you had a business and someone else had a similar business. Say that person stands in front of your business, on your property and says to people going in "Come to my place. I have the same exact stuff there, but come anyways." Wouldn't you get upset?

  • you're right, it is their box.

    It is my choice to use it.

    with this months latest move by not allowing videos you post on other sites to add as a hit, quite frankly now they have hit me in my wallet.

    so I am collecting subscribers and moving to metacafe..

    good luck living "inside the box"

    it's going to get plenty boring in there.

    I'll see you in a year or two once you've had enough and decide to migrate away.

  • Oh please! It hasn't changed. There are still people cursing and showing boobs and butts on youtube. People still do what they want. When a free service gets popular, they'll put restrictions on what happens b/c it becomes a family thing. Parents don't want their kids going to a popular site and get their fun taken away b/c it's not appropriate. It's not like people are having sex on youtube or are actually naked.

  • I don't think you even read my comment b4 you started leaving yours... therefor I will go easy on you... here is the part you need to read

    "with this months latest move by not allowing videos you post on other sites to add as a hit, quite frankly now they have hit me in my wallet." I'm not talkinging about the changes in Dec. I'm talking about the ones that took place yesterday...

    my problem is the way you are now invisible and you no longer can link a video and still get hits...

  • it may be "their" website, but they gave it to us, for us to use, for us to communicate to each other with, and for us to share our OPINIONS. If they don't like what they themselves created for us and decide to take it back....well its too fucking late, because with the "broadcast yourself" message, it's attracted so many people that it could be considered communism to take it away, our right of freedom of speech. So two words for youtube: FUCK OFF

  • well said!

  • IM IN THAT ALL THE WAY 100000/100

  • i agree 100%

  • Very interesting. You are 100% correct. Since it is thier media, they have a right to control content. The fist amendment prohibits congress from passing any law reguating or demoting the freedom of speech. It does not mean you can just say anything without consequences.

    Although I disagree with censorship in general, I do agree with protecting our children, through parental controls and rating systems.

    Very well thought out and informed video.

  • when you sign up for a youtube account your suppose to be 18. So if your kids plan on signing up for youtube and find swearing and hearing swearing in videos underage thats there fault no one else's .

  • You don't need a YT account to watch videos on YT.

  • correction to codyman: there suposed to be 13 not 18

  • huh it was wierd because when i first signed up i had to verify i was 18

  • you do not own youtube, or the 'box' as you call it. You comprimised you freedom of speech upon agreeing to the terms& conditions. Youtube is perfectly within its right to censor anything they please. Its a private organisation, and does not beling to the public, as everyone seems to be mindlessly implying. Its no different than a shop owner making rules for his shop, a customer can't just walk in a do as they please.

  • how dare youtube is for blocking out sex and swearing *sarcasm*

  • hmm....I kinda get where your coming from but it still isn't moving me from my position in this, mainly because people are leaving now because of the BS thats going on with WMG right now and if someone cusses just once they shouldn't be demoted for it, for example, shadow the hedgehog says damn in his game, is that a reason to pull it off the shelf? NO! anyhow, I realize that this vid is older then the new WMG quarrel but still, that's just my oppinion though.

  • I see your point, and it is correct for the most part on youtube. However, I have to admit there are other reasons, beside cursing and explicit materials, that ban videos. This is what I don't like about youtube.

    One of the obvious reasons I know is political. I know a young man (Ryantineocons) who is banned because he defends Palestinians against Israelis; Ron Paul against Democratic and Republican parties. Seriously, what's wrong with that? He is banned just because he is against the powerful.

  • This guy really makes a good point. I really find it disturbing when some people feel like they HAVE to curse to show they're angry. It truly is unnecessary. Good post DS!

  • This is against freedom of expression and speech.I can understand content warnings and age restrictions but not to out right censorship. Digital soul It is up to you to control the content that your children \view ,and so it is for every other parent that has children that go on youtube and for that matter tv or any other form of media including video games.

  • And everyone just got "owned" by Digital Soul. Accept it... :)

  • man u should run for president after obama U ROKKK

  • i agree with D SOUL always with good vids he always gets his point across with calm & being civilized about it. not cursing & going on a rampage about it

  • It's so strange that a people who think they are so GOOD, can create essences of things so bad. FOr petty nothingness! Killing someone is bad, stealing from others is bad. SHIT is a word. it envokes a feeling, but it's not bad.

  • Even alcohol for instance. We ban alcohol from children till they're 21. When they're 21 they go berserk, frat parties and sheet like that. Some other countries give their children small amounts of alcohol during dinner. Less alcoholism in those countries... go figure. Drugs, less addiction per capita in countries that legalize it. go figure. We're creating an essence of something.

  • Restricting "bad" language never has been "right" to begin with. It's not logically right or Constitutionally right. If it wasn't so shunned, it probably would have never become a thing, but as always, as is "sex" the christian/catholic influences pounded it into "badness" and gave it SO much "bad" credit that it became a popular something of wonder. of course, as did sex in America and with choir boys did become a thing of wonder with some priests and I'm sure a many ministers, evangelists, etc

  • Now I just watched this pompous, yo... don't cuss yo... you can be tough without cussin... hey look at me with my street composure... yo... not cussin foo..yo yo... gots 2 children... what the hell? dude sometimes, says FUCK is ok... it's just a word. if you teach your children it's just a WORD, they'll use it in context, appropriately and be non the worse for it.

  • i could understand age restriction but totally changing someons video NOOOO

  • yea man your right

  • I think the age restriction is a good comprmise........ cuzz it stops younger kids but at the same time allows us to watch if we want

  • Aren't you a friendly Christian.

  • so very true. you have my respect.

  • lulz you cunt muscle hes not a satanist. Just an open minded person who has their eyes open as opposed to all you religious cocks.

    I myself dont believe in any religion but why hate on Digitilsoul?!

  • I Have two kids also and I don't want them going on to youtube to watch your videos. Your videos are not appropriate for young kids

    and I want my kids to be safe. We should Censor you and have you kicked off youtube. We should also censor anyone who promotes Christianity and any other religion that has laws, and morality. Keep Jesus Christ Off Youtube, he is a bad influence on kids where satan is a good influence on kids. I don't want my kids seeing Videos that promote Jesus Loser Christ. 666

  • U are a retarded parent btw Jesus is Lord so pray befoe u burn

  • I will never sell out to Christianity and pray to Jesus Christ. Oh and I'm Actually not a retard. In order to be a retard my IQ would have to be below 70 and mine is 140. Look up LaVeyan Satanism, that is what I am.

  • Nobodies asking you to pray to jesus ErowsRLD but a little bit of understanding on your part would be appreciated...saying that to promote jesus is a bad influence is your oppinion and nothing more. Don't expect everyone to go along with you just because you believe something. As for not wanting your kids to watch digitalsoul is a bit weird as their are plenty of places on the internet i'm sure you wouldn't want your kids to go but that doesn't mean they're not gonna go there...

  • You do not believe in Jesus? So be it. Do not preach Satan do others then. Let your children decide who the look up to whether it be Satan, Jesus, The Dali Lama, or choose a path of Atheism, let them decide, do not be a hypocrite.

  • you think he cares if u watch his video ha ha ha get a life

  • Im not mean but if you want youtube to be more strict then normal people who love youtube would not go and google would start to crash. and also if you dont want them to watch youtube block it. its like your asking to get rid of rated R movies. the internet lets you express youorself you cant block out freedom of speech.

  • Does Digitlsouls even know what the Blackout is ? people arnt boycotting Youtube because they cant swear, they can swear ! People r boycotting Youtube because they r closing down channels left and right for absolutely no reason ! Most of the channels were very political channels that usually dont agree with the mainstream media !

  • Maybe someday I will figure out why when I reply to someones comment, it doesn't appear under the comment I am replying to. GOSH DANG IT!

  • Since when can't you swear on YouTube?

  • It is always interesting to find out how things came to be. How did these words become taboo in the first place. And on another topic, I think copyright laws are pretty stupid. Anyone got any thoughts?

  • I still think it is okay to swear, even though I don't do it all the time. To me, it doesn't make sense why some words are "bad" words and others aren't. But it is annoying when people do say shit fuck bitch ALL THE TIME.

  • You're point is 100% mute and self-contradictory. You're right that youtube can do whatever it wants with it's box; but the thing is the users of youtube can do whatever they want with their computer, their online service, and their own person as well.

    Hence, if users want to choose not to use youtube for a day or whatever because they don't like what youtube is doing with their box that they use, they have the exact same right as youtube to obstain from it's service.

  • Opps, I mean "moot".

    But ur on point about the line you were going down that it's not a free speech issue. Free speech only has to do with the government restraining your speech or punishing you for it; any entity can control the speech with in it's domain. ie if it's my house I can kick you out if I don't like what you say, and it's not the least bit a violation of your freedom of speech

    Still, the users don't have to like it. Again, they have every right to protest, & not use the service

  • good point about not having to cuss to get ur point across i used to think like that when i was 13. but ive changed
