Finally, youtube is taking steps to delete content like this. Let's hope it's just the start +++

"The wildly popular Toy Freaks YouTube channel featuring a single dad and his two daughters has been deleted, amid a broader crackdown on disturbing children's content on the video streaming platform.
Toy Freaks, founded two years ago by landscaper Greg Chism of Granite City, Illinois, had 8.53million subscribers and was among the 100 most-viewed YouTube channels before it was shut-down on Friday.
A YouTube spokesperson said in a statement: 'It's not always clear that the uploader of the content intends to break our rules, but we may still remove their videos to help protect viewers, uploaders and children. We've terminated the Toy Freaks channel for violation of our policies.'
'We take child safety extremely seriously and have clear policies against child endangerment. We recently tightened the enforcement of these policies to tackle content featuring minors where we receive signals that cause concern,' the statement said. "

I don't understand how it could of been appropriate for the last 2 years. If you go to YouTube and click almost any kids content and hit a suggested vid, then another suggested vid..ect ect.. a large portion always end up to questionable content by a child friendly sounding channel
