I would rather eat bad food than spend hours making multiple recipes and then hours cleaning the microwave. And Dave gets to enjoy Ann’s amazing recipes the rest of the month!
10:00 That kinda hits home for me. I have a gaming channel that focus mostly on retro games (nes, snes, gameboy, etc). Back in 2016, I did a NES game called Code Name: Viper where I did a no damage/no death speedrun. I had split the series up into a video for each stage that was played so I could focus on one at a time. It took me about 3'ish weeks to get it perfect (having to time enemy spawn points, movements & attacks, figure out which items are where, etc, and do all of that as fast as possible without taking damage and without dying). I was so proud of it. Then in 2019, some j*ckoff gaming channel literally just re-uploaded all my videos as a compilation video and put it on their channel claiming it to be played by one of their people. I reported it to TH-cam as uploading reused content, and they essentially said that as long as they make money, they didn't care. I mean, what's the point of having a policy against doing stuff like that, if it's not going to be enforced? I had to start putting watermarks on my videos from then on. So, I know EXACTLY how it feels to have something that took you time & effort to make, just to have someone else come along and steal it claiming it as theirs. BTW, love your videos. I kinda feel bad for Dave though...
can you please post a link to your videos? i don't usually watch indie/retro gaming content but i'd love to let it play in the background just to give you a few views :)
Content farms should be banned for the absolute waste of time and misleading (sometimes dangerous) ways. At the very least they shouldn’t be pushed by the algorithm so much.
Some kids have seriously hurt themselves following these tutorials. There is no obvious safety warning and, especially when fire is involved, they don't tell you what to do properly or what could happen if you do things wrong. The amount of useless stuff TH-cam does to "protect" children and they completely leave the obvious stuff like dangerous hacks and family channels
My little cousin used to be addicted to content farms. Nowadays, she's addicted to debunking videos of these content farms. It's result of growing older, plus she tried to melt crayons with the help of her mother after watching a hack and it didn't work out. I shake my head in disappointment. I had warned her so many times that those channels tell a lot of lies.
TH-cam likes the money, so ofc they aren't gonna ban them, sadly. But the content farms really do piss me off. I've had to stop my mom from watching content farms before because I don't want her getting fooled by them
It's kinda funny, because in many countries (like Poland where I'm from) we DO have sour milk and some people really like it. I find it kind of gross, but yeah, it is a thing here.
GAGAGAGAGA I just disliked my own face because I am unpretty. HOWEVER: I always like my GOOD videos however. No dislikes allowed where I come from. Don't be mean, dear ta
30 seconds in I can factually tell you that the chocolate hand in the “final” shot is 100% made with a mold. Not a baker or chocolatier but I have done sculpture before and 1) the edges are incredibly smooth and consistent which caught my attention but 2) the way the finger segments bend is akin to a 3D “perfected” hand, posed and articulated digitally before being turned into something you could say, pour chocolate into.
Casting your hand in another media then pouring the chocolate over that would be the way to go. Maybe gloving your hand, pressing it down into cocoa powder, flour or chocolate and compacting it then using that to cast the chocolate might be the way to do it.
This comment is both for the "engagement" of the TH-cam overlords and also to legitimately praise the work and effort put into your content. Good stuff all around.
Everyone is talking about Dave suffering, but NO ONE is talking about how Ann LITERALLY STUCK HER HAND IN THE *FREEZER* for this video. Thank you for putting so much effort into your videos Ann, we need more channels like this.
"Stuck her hand in the freezer ?" I WORK IN THE FREEZER, I have to get out several times ( 20 minutes at minus 20 degrees is enough for me ), because my hands are numb and I wear gloves ! ( but that does not help obviously, ) Still, I appreciate Ann's efforts and great content, and I feel sorry for Dave, he's very courageous, after all that awful stuff he has to try.
First she kept her hand in ice water till hypothermia set in. Then she poured hot melted chocolate over it. When it didn't set, then was when she put her hand in the freezer, risking frostbite. ouch, Ouch, OUCH.
Ann has sacrificed lots for us. Microwave messes, kitchen explosions, and lots and lots of research. I can oy imagine cleaning up after the tries that didn't work
My uncle has a TON of cacti, including a dragon fruit (not sure if that's actually a cactus but whatever) and it didn't look anything like what was shown, even without the weird balls of "fruit".
Dragonfruit is a succulent, but not a cactus. When someone donated some to my local botanic garden, the trellises he recommended to grow them on were made with steel cable to support this wild climbing succulent. I need to go visit them next time i go volunteer.
I love how Ann explains the real science behind why these things don't work, how to potentially make them work, and warns of the dangers of the TH-cam algorithm!
The other super easy way to do the chocolate hand would be to make a mold of your own hand. Make an impression in plaster, then fill it with silicone. The version can be coated in chocolate then stuck in the fridge for a couple hours.
Yes, we all feel for Dave when he tastes the nasty hacks, but just think of how much of Ann's normal cooking and baking he gets to eat when the cameras aren't on! I think he's got a pretty good thing going there.
Since I learnt from you that, as far as the algorithm is concerned negative attention is just as “good” as positive attention, I’ve been trying REALLY REALLY hard to not engage with a video that annoys me - usually I try to not even watch these videos, but that’s not always possible, especially with the new Shorts format. Sooo, thanks for sharing your amazing videos and for taking the time to research and create your content. I really appreciate it. 🙂🐿
Same, I've just gotten to the point of blocking the channel and telling TH-cam to not recommend the channel anymore, it works for the most part but not always. The best way I get rid of certain things is to basically 'reset' what I'm viewing by going to channels I actually watch and just watching their shorts a whole bunch until TH-cam goes "Oh! I see you like this channel/type of content, we'll just keep showing you their videos then." Not a perfect system but it works
I pause any short I don't want to watch and immediately click the don't recommend channel button. As far as I can tell I haven't seen them again, and I also remove the video from my watch history if I seriously hate the video.
@@esm1817 For sure. Ann is definitely on to something with the engagement theory. I imagine most of that girls video is people just calling her stupid, which is creating engagement. People tend to just move on when they've seen something they've liked, but we absolutely love to complain and call people out when we see something we don't like.
@@moose8846 way to not judge someone you know nothing about after seeing ONE VIDEO that was probably planned/scripted instead of giving them the benefit of the doubt like any normal human should. Well done. Feel better now?
If anyone wants to try a good "carbonated" milk, there is a Japanese soda called calpico. It is not really carbonated, just uses lactic acid fermentation to create the bubbles. Tastes like normal milk, not sour, and has lots of different flavors!
@@KasumiRINA I love kefir, but to make it you should use a specific type of bacteria. So I think that carbonated milk is closer to spolied milk than to kefir.
@@RosiescrazyCorner NGL, I’m pretty over this played out ‘joke’ that lumps even some portions of a certain group into the same category, especially in a negative way. It just seems so unnecessary to me, I understand that there are far more harmful things being done and said all the time, both online and off, but I can’t help still being slightly bothered by this type of joke. It doesn’t accomplish anything positive, and it’s unfair to pass sweeping judgments like that regardless of the group or intent of the statement itself. Sorry. Just my opinion.
My reaction when she said he would be tasting it without knowing what it was my reaction was, “Oh that poor guy!” And I am used to seeing him try all kinds of crap
Well, he's in a marital union! (I do feel bad for him, but then I remember that 98% of what he eats (that's cooked by Ann) has got to be off the charts. I mean, she had to test recipes for her cookbook!!)
Re:the weird yellow stuff in the chocolate hand-- to me that almost looks like they used liquid latex, which is widely used in the nail community for techniques like gradient patterns because it's very easy to remove.
This cola cake should be called Future Depression Pie, because it's a dessert for the times where soda drinks are more accessible than drinkable water.
I totally agree. I went to comment/reply here and I noticed that there were 666 likes 👍 soooo as I grew up watching “The Omen” movies, I was VERY happy and pleased to tick it over to 667 by liking your comment. Ok, I’ll stop typing now. 😜🐿
I saw that video and knew right off the bat, when they used a comb instead of toothpicks. No pastry chef would ever do these things. Thank you for helping others see through their garbage
I really feel her urgency to address the issue of dangerous content on the YT platform. The megagiant corporations have a fleet of lawyers to keep the companies out of trouble. The fact that creators like Ann Reardon and many others are spreading this awareness shows that everyone does not want to make money the wrong way. I absolutely adore her for the efforts.
I feel like we need to have a whole video of Dave just getting all his favorite things as a way of showing our appreciation for all the gross things he's slogged through!
@@fallensway855 when you like a comment it’s refreshes it and probably a lot of people liked this comment, then you liked it so the likes loaded which made it seem like there was a jump in likes
He's such a sport. I cannot recall the first time Ann made him taste something--but it certainly turned out to be the beginning of something pure and beautiful.
I really love how she explains everything that is happening and why hacks go wrong and how to "fix" them. She never talks down to the viewers but at the same time she makes everything simple to understand. I think I'd rather have Anne teaching me science that the teachers I had in high school 😂😂 I think I would have definitely gotten more out of it 😂
Yep. Ann is such an amazing person. And besides her deep knowledge, that definitely contributes a lot to her popularity. Glad that there are still content creators like her on YT who provide actual values instead of video tricks parading as hacks.
@@kumaahito3927 it's also the fact that whatever she says she has researched extensively and whatever she doesn't know she asks an expert or, again, researches before putting it on YT. She's an amazing creator!
He looked so disappointed when he had to put it down and try the original recipe. lol Edited: I posted before I got to the pies. My response was in reference to the watermelon sorbet that I was still laughing about. Just got to the pies. lol
5 Years ago me and my nephew did the chocolate hand thing. We used Hershey's Shell chocolate, which has an additive that makes it hard. It also had that yellowish waxy color as well. Which I'm guessing was the additive.
Ann: spends a few minutes explaining that milk will taste sour when it's carbonated and gives the scientific reasoning behind it, telling us she doesn't recommend we try it at home Also Ann: so let's have Dave try it :^) Love your videos Ann thanks for always taking the time to make thorough, educational, and entertaining videos!!
Poor Dave, he's so accustomed to eating the terrible food from recreating 5 minute craft videos that he goes in for a second sip of the carbonated milk
Minor point of correction. Liquids normally condense when they solidify/freeze. Water is a notable exception due to the polar nature of its molecules. But, it is the exception rather than the rule.
It's probably fair to say that 90% of liquids a cook or baker is dealing with is water-based (at least to some degree), though. (And who would freeze oil or alcohol?) Technically true, but kinda like saying a tomato is a fruit (but you wouldn't put one in fruit salad).
@@andyvulhop I don't know - I could really go an avocado crumble! I recall when I went to cooking school they made it very clear that tomato is a botanical fruit, but a culinary vegetable. Only thing I remembered :P
I love how SHOCKED dave was when he tried the sorbet and it was good. Like years of charcoal ice cream and milky coke have almost had a pavlovian effect on him. Camera+Ann with plate= Unhappy Dave.
I love how Ann debunks videos and then will sometimes give some other options on how to get similar results to the video that actually work. She's awesome.
I think Dave having to try all the fails and scams is just a way of the universe balancing itself because he also gets to have all the fantastic stuff Ann makes
2:55 Ann's ring is very beautiful and well made, I mean, I can admire it from a distance, and then she just..dips it in chocolate. Absolute dedication to the craft right there.
I also think, people should have logical thinking and if it seems too easy and sounds too good, then that is probably too good to be true. Plus a basic experience in cooking.
Now the strange thing is, Ann mostly does baking and that hardly interests me at all, but here I am watching the videos just because, well, of her personality and charisma, AND - no less strange - I learn something about life in general from this - presumably baking - channel! Isn't it wonderful! Thank you ever so much, Ann, for being there for us.
If someone wants a “chocolate hand” for a sundae, freeze water in a glove. For the fingers up, freeze it a bowl. Then dunk the frozen Leandro” in chocolate and make your sundae. As for that nasty carbonated milk, I think you owe Dave something delicious to make up for it.
@@richardwilson230, maybe, but a glove frozen with water would instantly set the chocolate. If one used a mannequin hand, you’d still want to glove it, for sterility sake.
I applaud what you’re doing - both debunking and pointing out how the platform algorithms and content farms are destroying creativity. I especially appreciate your apparent deep understanding of food and it’s preparation. Well done! Please keep at it and know your message is getting out. And BTW, Cheers to Dave for being such a good sport!
Don't forget bot farms as well. I can get people liking these hack videos but considering the shady practices that these content farms use, I wouldn't be surprised if some were paying for views, especially considering that will these channels and videos have enormous views it comes off that hardly anyone on the platform actually knows who they are. Pretty sus for channels that are treated like royalty here.
We really need better ways to keep big corporations like TH-cam liable for the stuff they choose to host without heeding the complaints about it. Not being able to properly call them out for it and have it do anything is a huge issue.
It'll be interesting to see, now that Porn Hub's lost its' lawsuit around knowingly profiting from illegal content, if any of that will impact other sites.....
While this is true, it is also true that if TH-cam is held responsible for everything it allows to upload that it will start a draconian crackdown on content. It will ban/remove anything that can even remotely be seen as a problem. And as world wide opinions tend to be different on what is and what isn't a problem, very little content would remain. Better safe then sorry attitude will result in much stricter sensoring in every possible way. What most people want is a good balance. But legaly it's hard to find that balance. TH-cam is already being called out for removing video's for questionable content when they dont even have anything bad in them. Or like a single curse word. Meanwhile harmful video's like fake and dangerous hacks can remain because no on screen violence, nudity, hatred or cursing is occuring. TH-cam struggles with finding that balance already, badly so. So if they are FORCED to crack down on things, they WILL crack down on things. Including a lot of content you dont want to see cracked down. Rather then making TH-cam liable for bad content from others who make use of youutbe, youtube should be rewared for keeping fake hacks/misinformation and dangerous (in the sense of kids will believe it and try it at home) video's off their platform. Further more, allow youtube to sue people and corperations who misuesed their platform for content thats not allowed. This way there is less need for youtube to crack down on everything to protect their own hides, at the expense of the ''good guys'' (regular youtubers who are not doing anything wrong), while there is more incentive to hunt the bad guys because it can make them more money. TH-cam understands greed. So rewarding them will work better then punnishing them for a safer and happier youtube. Punnishing them for content will just make them paranoid about being punnished more, which means regular youtubers will suffer more consequences and have more and more video's removed/blocked etc.
I just love how happy Dave looked when he tasted the first sorbet "wow it actually tastes good I don't get poison today" and then his sadness when he ate the other stuff
When my boyfriend first heard “depression pie”, he burst out laughing because he is from france, where they didn’t really have a depression, so he just assumed the pie was just really depressing because it was all water. A sad water pie
@@ewetoobz3840 the depression affected food and recipes and even cultural language that wound be the same and won’t translate to places that didn’t have it. You don’t have to have been alive in your Great Depression or the the Yukon Gold Rush to know how sourdough bread works. Depression food with the cultural background means food made with basically no expensive ingredients. Without it it’s just food for depressed people.
I just want to say, I love the phrase or notion of milk "going off". It's not a term heard a lot in the US (in my experience), so it's a novel thing to hear.
I love Dave's reactions because he is so genuine. When he startled himself with the soda stream, I jumped with him! When he set Ann's sorbet down to accept the frozen watermelon, he looked so reluctant but went along anyway.
I had thought that maaaaaybe you could make the hand shape by putting your hand onto the chocolate, waiting for it to set and then repeating a bunch of times.
Just wanted to thank you for extending such kindness to the TH-cam moderators, that they are probably super stressed and not just incompetent. As a former content moderator on big social media platforms (not TH-cam) it's very refreshing and unfortunately rare to see that kind of kindness.
I love how steady and patient you are, well spoken and calm in explaining.. And i love how upbeat and almost carefree in a way Dave is when tasting or participating - I supposed that may be because he trusts you so wholly to know the food may not taste good but is generally harmless and safe. Ive learned a lot about food, cooking, and even chemistry from you. I figured to comment and let you know. Great job.
@@some-one-else milk plus seltzer is a common treat in New York, i’ve made it before and it’s nit bad. her problem is that it’s pure carbonation which upsets the milk, if it was added to water and carbonated or the milk diluted it might be edible.
I don’t expect you to read this, but just wanted to say thank you for always making very informational videos that are ACTUALLY useful for society and they’re very entertaining. Your content has always been so genuine, thank you Ann!!!
OMG she replied!!! How cool is THAT?!? I have the same feeling, though! She got me interested in baking and making cool things out of chocolate! 5 min crafts could NEVERRR!!!
@@HowToCookThat Could the chocolate on the hand have worked if you had rested your hand on a bag of ice? I was wondering this because, as soon as you remove your hand from the iced water, it will start to return to normal temperature!
I love your interactions with Dave. You two really give me healthy envy. You are the best cooking youtuber, it's lovely to listen to you and the way you present things.
God love Dave for going back for a second taste of the "carbonated milk!" "Eww, ugh, that's really horrible; better have another taste to make sure..."
i have question. as an european i eat a lot of fermented food. and even drink sour buttermilk or sour milk. do they sell these kinds of milk products in U.S. as well?
German here: Heftig has long been infamous for their vapid clickbait content and sharing their content is considered a valid reason to unfriend someone on facebook. It's been a while since I saw one, so the system works.

Just for Dave trying that milk he NEEDs a episode of him doing a test of his chosen hacks and giving Ann to try it! LOL would be such gold to watch!
this I wanna see
So true 🥺
just for him trying it TWICE!!!!
Yes!!! 😂😂
That's a good idea!
The other super easy way to do the chocolate hand would be to make a mold of your own hand. Make an impression in plaster, then fill it with silicone. The version can be coated in chocolate then stuck in the fridge for a couple hours.
Dave is such a trooper.

Thank you for your service, Dave!
RIP his taste bud.
I felt so bad for him when he was about to drink the milk. But then he took a 2nd sip, so it must not be that bad (I hope)
Dave's a real champion, suffering through all of these debunking videos with a smile on.
Yes, we all feel for Dave when he tastes the nasty hacks, but just think of how much of Ann's normal cooking and baking he gets to eat when the cameras aren't on! I think he's got a pretty good thing going there.
He seems like the kinda guy who'd run the grill in the summertime, too. Win-win for both of them!
Dave was so surprised when the first thing was good. Then he was all like “oh. 😑”
My favorite thing is how whenever Dave tastes something really gross, he goes in for a second taste just to make sure
Hello 👋 how are you doing
Dave is so committed to the bit that he willingly drinks carbonated milk for his wife's youtube channel. twice.
relationship goals tbh
Since I learnt from you that, as far as the algorithm is concerned negative attention is just as “good” as positive attention, I’ve been trying REALLY REALLY hard to not engage with a video that annoys me - usually I try to not even watch these videos, but that’s not always possible, especially with the new Shorts format.
Sooo, thanks for sharing your amazing videos and for taking the time to research and create your content. I really appreciate it. 🙂🐿
You'll be much happier if you stop watching Shorts altogether, I promise lol
Same, I've just gotten to the point of blocking the channel and telling TH-cam to not recommend the channel anymore, it works for the most part but not always. The best way I get rid of certain things is to basically 'reset' what I'm viewing by going to channels I actually watch and just watching their shorts a whole bunch until TH-cam goes "Oh! I see you like this channel/type of content, we'll just keep showing you their videos then." Not a perfect system but it works
@@lemonywater2979wish you could disable shorts, especially if you have red
Great reason to just ignore shorts altogether 😄 downright harmful bs
I pause any short I don't want to watch and immediately click the don't recommend channel button. As far as I can tell I haven't seen them again, and I also remove the video from my watch history if I seriously hate the video.
Not only does she debunk these "hacks" but also provides us with a perfect working solution for each one of them! Ann you are just amazing!
There's no saving the carbonated milk, though

"It's already cooking!" when it just starts to fizz?? That girl is NOT qualified to give anyone food advice lol, Ann's reaction was my reaction.
maybe she thinks it's boiling instead of just bubbling?? she should probably review some basic science principles before giving anyone food advice XD
I think she's pranking well. She has to know full well that fizzing is not the same as cooking.
Of course she's not qualified lmao she's a bimbo on tiktok
@@esm1817 For sure. Ann is definitely on to something with the engagement theory. I imagine most of that girls video is people just calling her stupid, which is creating engagement. People tend to just move on when they've seen something they've liked, but we absolutely love to complain and call people out when we see something we don't like.

Dave: "This is good... why is this good, what's the trick?"
If anyone wants to try a good "carbonated" milk, there is a Japanese soda called calpico. It is not really carbonated, just uses lactic acid fermentation to create the bubbles. Tastes like normal milk, not sour, and has lots of different flavors!
Ah yes, Calpico. Had that several times.
Sour carbonated/fermented milk is commercially available across North and Central Asia. Europeans may not like it, but it's a thing.
@@AutoReport1 exactly. There are lots of people who drink it and enjoy it.
also No2 works fine with dairy.
Anne: “Describe the flavor for us.”
Dave: “Tingly, slightly fizzy, off milk.”
Also Dave: GOES IN FOR ANOTHER SIP
He always takes two tastes no matter how awful it is.
Actually the way he described it sounds like kefir, which is actually good. You don't carbonate milk for it but ferment it like beer and stuff.
@@KasumiRINA I love kefir, but to make it you should use a specific type of bacteria. So I think that carbonated milk is closer to spolied milk than to kefir.

@@RosiescrazyCorner NGL, I’m pretty over this played out ‘joke’ that lumps even some portions of a certain group into the same category, especially in a negative way. It just seems so unnecessary to me, I understand that there are far more harmful things being done and said all the time, both online and off, but I can’t help still being slightly bothered by this type of joke. It doesn’t accomplish anything positive, and it’s unfair to pass sweeping judgments like that regardless of the group or intent of the statement itself. Sorry. Just my opinion.

I saw that video and knew right off the bat, when they used a comb instead of toothpicks. No pastry chef would ever do these things. Thank you for helping others see through their garbage
I really feel her urgency to address the issue of dangerous content on the YT platform. The megagiant corporations have a fleet of lawyers to keep the companies out of trouble. The fact that creators like Ann Reardon and many others are spreading this awareness shows that everyone does not want to make money the wrong way. I absolutely adore her for the efforts.
Yes!! More content creators should strive to debunk misinformation. Ann is awesome
Agreed
Bold of you to assume that the solution wouldn't harm honest independent creators with TH-cam's track record.

I think I'd rather have Anne teaching me science that the teachers I had in high school 😂😂 I think I would have definitely gotten more out of it 😂
Yep. Ann is such an amazing person. And besides her deep knowledge, that definitely contributes a lot to her popularity. Glad that there are still content creators like her on YT who provide actual values instead of video tricks parading as hacks.
@@kumaahito3927 it's also the fact that whatever she says she has researched extensively and whatever she doesn't know she asks an expert or, again, researches before putting it on YT. She's an amazing creator!
Seriously, it’s what makes her debunking videos so impressive and enjoyable. They are actually educational!
Yes, Ann makes videos we can actually *learn* from!
It’s because the “education” system cares more about political indoctrination than actually teaching you. It’s been that way since late 60’s, sadly.
Dave: “Oh this is good! It’s from tiktok?”
Ann: “No it’s actually my recipe”
Dave: “Ohhh so it’s from Ann Reardon” 🤣
He looked so disappointed when he had to put it down and try the original recipe. lol
Edited: I posted before I got to the pies. My response was in reference to the watermelon sorbet that I was still laughing about. Just got to the pies. lol

5 Years ago me and my nephew did the chocolate hand thing.
We used Hershey's Shell chocolate, which has an additive that makes it hard.
It also had that yellowish waxy color as well. Which I'm guessing was the additive.
That was ever so slightly mean, yet very funny seeing Dave with the Milk. He's got such an expressive face
Ann: spends a few minutes explaining that milk will taste sour when it's carbonated and gives the scientific reasoning behind it, telling us she doesn't recommend we try it at home
Also Ann: so let's have Dave try it :^)
Love your videos Ann thanks for always taking the time to make thorough, educational, and entertaining videos!!
And he freaking tasted it a second time 🤣
If you ever want to drink sour fizzy milk, just buy kefir. It's actually really nice.
I love how Dave goes back to the fizzy milk. He’s so silly.
It's good to see 4.9 million. Shows good content IS rewarded.
Poor Dave, he's so accustomed to eating the terrible food from recreating 5 minute craft videos that he goes in for a second sip of the carbonated milk
I love how surprised Dave sounded when he said the watermelon sorbet tasted good, then how he was immediately suspicious 😂
Dave: Tastes good! What’s the trick?
Ann: …that’s my recipe
Us and Dave: yup, that makes sense
Minor point of correction. Liquids normally condense when they solidify/freeze. Water is a notable exception due to the polar nature of its molecules. But, it is the exception rather than the rule.
Good catch!
It's probably fair to say that 90% of liquids a cook or baker is dealing with is water-based (at least to some degree), though. (And who would freeze oil or alcohol?)
Technically true, but kinda like saying a tomato is a fruit (but you wouldn't put one in fruit salad).
@@andyvulhop I don't know - I could really go an avocado crumble!

Great Video and great Explanation!!
If the Platform can't be hold responsible for the Content of its Users then the Users Uploaders should be
We really need better ways to keep big corporations like TH-cam liable for the stuff they choose to host without heeding the complaints about it. Not being able to properly call them out for it and have it do anything is a huge issue.
It'll be interesting to see, now that Porn Hub's lost its' lawsuit around knowingly profiting from illegal content, if any of that will impact other sites.....
While this is true, it is also true that if TH-cam is held responsible for everything it allows to upload that it will start a draconian crackdown on content. It will ban/remove anything that can even remotely be seen as a problem. And as world wide opinions tend to be different on what is and what isn't a problem, very little content would remain. Better safe then sorry attitude will result in much stricter sensoring in every possible way. What most people want is a good balance. But legaly it's hard to find that balance. TH-cam is already being called out for removing video's for questionable content when they dont even have anything bad in them. Or like a single curse word. Meanwhile harmful video's like fake and dangerous hacks can remain because no on screen violence, nudity, hatred or cursing is occuring. TH-cam struggles with finding that balance already, badly so. So if they are FORCED to crack down on things, they WILL crack down on things. Including a lot of content you dont want to see cracked down. Rather then making TH-cam liable for bad content from others who make use of youutbe, youtube should be rewared for keeping fake hacks/misinformation and dangerous (in the sense of kids will believe it and try it at home) video's off their platform. Further more, allow youtube to sue people and corperations who misuesed their platform for content thats not allowed. This way there is less need for youtube to crack down on everything to protect their own hides, at the expense of the ''good guys'' (regular youtubers who are not doing anything wrong), while there is more incentive to hunt the bad guys because it can make them more money. TH-cam understands greed. So rewarding them will work better then punnishing them for a safer and happier youtube. Punnishing them for content will just make them paranoid about being punnished more, which means regular youtubers will suffer more consequences and have more and more video's removed/blocked etc.
