The main relevance to Pizzagate here is the obvious hypocrisy of YouTube taking down Pizzagate videos (calling them "adult content") while allowing blatant pedophilia channels. It's similar to Reddit's ban of /r/pizzagate while ignoring /r/pedofriends and the like.

How odd, another thread about this got flagged as debunked by the mods. What exactly was debunked? Or was it tagged debunked by mistake?

I noticed that too, I didn't really understand the webcam case though. why are kids uploading videos of themselves? Or is their a further theory?

Grace says in the video you need to submit ID and social security numbers to get a monetised channel. Some of them are. I can't stomach checking them all. I checked a few yesterday and some of the videos with millions of views have monetisation.

That would leave a few options;

  • The child applied for it, very unlikely and possibly not even possible (I'm not sure if there's a minimum age)
  • The parent applied for it
  • Someone else applied for it and uses videos from what could be dubious sources

I've seen some people say these videos are automatically named/uploaded but that doesn't explain the monetisation on some of them.

appreciate the response.

That does make it very fishy, I certainly don't believe those videos were monetized by a parent, (or at least a sane parent that cares for their child) and I have monetized videos before on youtube so I know you have to be 18+. Almost seems like dark web material, but as far as I'm aware you can't get ad revenue services like google adsense on the dark web, which would explain why this would be on youtube.. Sickening to think this can get on youtube. I am flagging every single one rn
