If youtube requires me to provide all my personal information I will be forced to shut down both my channels and completely move to zippcast! Below is a link to an article about this situation.

  • I am pissed off with Google/YouTube for this. Asking for all our personal stuff little by little, forcing us more and more. Things seem to get worse and worse. I did put my birthday, gender and age, no problem, but I don't want them calling me or texting me. I am already flooded with "YouTube Service" emails which are useless to me. What more info will they ask for? I am curious.

  • @CassetteMaster Yeah I'm the same as you, I don't want to give them my phone number and have them call me, and what's worse is they can find out a lot of things from your phone number like your address. I might just give them a fake number if that can be done...

  • @monarch1957 Yeah. Why can't they leave Well enough alone for more than a year. I might move too. Youtube has me REALLY angry at the moment. The new homepage is nice, but the channels and the new "privacy" policy (yeah, more like UN-privacy policy) just STINK! Please, Google, Do something nice for once and GIVE BACK THE OLD YOUTUBE!

  • They should leave things the way they are. 

  • @Aussie50 Maybe they won't be knocking your door down but they know where you are, and that just bothers me. idk, we'll see what happens. I may not really be closing my account unless things get really bad.

  • If u move I have 1 word, FUCK.

  • I gave them info already because of adsense, when you filled out the partner ID form. It doesn't really matter much, as they have to know info to sent check or direct deposit and who they are senting it to.

    Thw only other reason I can see them doing this for non partners is for "copyright infringement", so the music groups and movie company can get info, if they need to sue you for infringement, if they need to!!

  • I'm about to upload a rant video.

  • @vwestlife I have to agree with you on that, I too filled out the partner ID form and no gestapo are kicking my door down.

    its a shame to see so many people closing their accounts lately.

  • Wow thats stupid, well I am gonna go ahead and make a Zippcast account just in case. Thanks for the information!
