Blocking YouTube channels ?

You did mention advert algorithms implying YouTube content. If you have a source for algorithms being used in the 80s I will give you the benefit of the doubt :p

They were called advertisers and marketing departments. I don't know if they're technically algorithms, but I can't bring myself to call them human beings!
 
I can totally get where OP is coming from with the crap on youtube though. There's so many vloggers/influencers etc. creating these mad vids with high value prizes, super expensive gifts etc. just to get views. People like Mr Beast giving away 100K for stupid competitions with his mates or giving 20K to a dozen pizza delivery drivers

I'd say that was a positive example, giving money to those less well off and using the video he made to create even more money for him to give away.
 
I considered at the start of the year seeing if I could talk to my cousins who have a few toddlers if I could create a YouTube channel of them playing with toys.

I didn't go ahead with asking them as it would have been uncomfortable...

But imo it's a no brainer if you have easy access to cute toddlers and kinda the nothing ventured sorta thing...
I could be raking it in now I imagine if I'd gone full throttle and asked them but I don't think it would go done to well initially, and may impact relations for me but yar.

There's a huge mixture of kids to 20 gear olds on there buying, reviewing, showing off material goods. Which imo if they weren't acting with a personality a bit more flauntish and exuberant than normal then viewers may lose interest.

Now there is a line, and it is easy to appear spoilt and brattish as one of these reviewer kids and Imo I imagine the smarter ones don't want to show off that quite as much as irl alone that's not them.
But yes it is an outward behavior to which one growing up immersed in it is not something to idolise nor would parents want theirs to be influenced much by it I feel.

The parents of these kids, who most likely film them probably abide by and assist with the filming wherever possible since money motivates and their view on the entire YouTube kid persona is unknown but probably muchly in favour.


As a side note.. Apple must be making megabucks off final cut Pro

And yes blocking of specific channels is, without a doubt something that they should be providing!
That said.. More views = more revenue to YouTube .
