YouTube turns 14: A look at the many instances when YouTube got things wrong

The past 14 years haven’t exactly been easy for YouTube. YouTube cut its ties with Logan and removed him from YouTube Red’s original series “Foursome.” As if this wasn’t enough, Logan Paul allegedly tried to monetise his apology video as well. Following a crackdown on inappropriate content on its platform, YouTube started demonetising ad revenues on many content creators’ videos. The demonetisation issue, raised to keep advertisers happy, was perhaps YouTube’s biggest blunder and has cost a lot of content creators their livelihood. In addition to Smith, featuring TV stars John Oliver and Trevor Noah, who have absolutely no part to play in YouTube’s content creator community, in the Rewind 2018 video also didn’t go down well with the YouTube audience in general.
