YouTube offers a badge to users, calls them Heroes

article published on 23 September, 2016

There's not a lot of places that can be more vile than a YouTube comment section. And every day thousands upon thousands of illegal videos are uploaded to YouTube. All this needs to be cleaned up while maintaining YouTube as a free and open platform to voice your views.

I totally understand you on this! TOTALLY!

Sadly it's a balance that I don't think can be met. Balancing out public opinion and free speech being posted vs not allowing certain individuals to actually see those posts.......that's not an easy achievement.

Now...my wife and I don't have and don't ever want kids so I'm a bit bias to all things NOT KIDS.

In this case, it's like the radio. "Don't like what's being listened to...change the station"

Kids are gonna see the nasty stuff...it's truly part of life but we should really leave the "balancing out" part up to the parents. Though that's often the blind leading the blind too.
