Are We Verified Yet??

Comments

Don't think I'm in any danger. I have 38 subscribers. Don't think I like the idea of showing how many K rather than the number 'cause we can't see, "Almost 200!" A friend was very worried about his vlogging channel till his "Channel Administrator" called and said the new COPPA thing did not apply to him.

Apparently they are changing this after there has been an outcry... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-49768626

On first blush, it sounds more like a way to keep out "new talent" or ideas that You Tube doesn't want you to hear - i.e. Censorship !

According to Hank Green the current/old verification 'method' is just 'does this channel have more than 100k subscribers?', so if I started a channel deliberately impersonating another person and I hit 100k subscribers, then YouTube would have put a verification mark automatically and I wouldn't have been verified to be the person I'm impersonating. But I guess someone high-up at YouTube doesn't want to say they might have named the feature 'slightly' wrong...
