Around 500 hours of fresh videos are uploaded on YouTube every minute. And, to screen them, YouTube has around 10,000 moderators. This makes me wonder if the platform is 100% accurate in removing any explicit or inappropriate video being uploaded to the platform. Well, YouTube itself accepts that it’s not possible for them to be on their edge every time.
One such incident dates back to 2017 when a famous YouTuber, Logan Paul, uploaded a vlog that showed a man hanging to death. Out of all the trolls and backlash for the YouTuber, there was a huge audience criticizing YouTube for not removing the video timely. And that’s when people realized that YouTube can be a dangerous platform for the younger audience.
