    I really didn't want to make a video on this, especially we've got far more awesome videos to get on with; but when a video as uncontroversial as me sitting in a room talking about North Korea or Natsuki eating some ramen gets flagged, it's definitely worrying - and enough people over the last month have asked me about it to justify making a video discussing it.
    I hope this video gives a decent overview of the situation and why it's been a step backwards for the Abroad in Japan channel (as it has been for most channels), but I plan to draw a line under it here though; I won't keep going on about this. It sucks but we'll get through it! Now back to editing the next one ;) OPERATION BREADSTICK IS A GO.

      If it was going to get better, they would have done that during test and review stages, before giving it the power to demonetize. This is they version they have settled on to do an acceptable job, so there is no guarantee that it will get better, unless they purposely prematurely released broken garbage to shut up advertisers.

    Dear Chris, Thank you for making this video for CZcamsrs everywhere. I've been watching your video's for months now and I've liked all of your videos and been spamming every ad that was available. Your video's have helped me going through some tough times, and one might say you may have even saved my life in one of my darkest hours. Your content has rekindled life onto me and has helped me learned what a wonderful and beautiful country Japan really is. You have also sparked an interest for education within me and I am aspiring to be a teacher. I hope CZcams open their eyes and see what they're doing wrong and continue to improve what they're doing right. Because without the freedom for creators to make their videos their creation can never inspire people or touch people in ways they were meant to. Don't give up on CZcams, Chris! - A thankful and loyal viewer.

    • @Osprey1994
      @Osprey1994 Před 6 lety +2

      Yes it does it requires they have a comprehensive application that allows me to watch videos from my phone. The CZcams application is very well designed. Combining that with the fact that a lot of creators are hesitant to start on another site will continue to delay any sort of transition.

    So essentially this is a ploy by Google to decrease the amount of money they have to pay out to content creators...since most of the money they would normally earn comes early on after a video is released. There is no reason they couldn't have their algorithm analysis happen BEFORE the video goes live, and let you prevent it from going live if they deem it un-monetizable. You could then appeal and have it go live AFTER they approve it. Total BS.

    • @Noah-ws8ho

    If the algorithm is seemingly smart enough to filter out Swears or specific topics, then why not instead of demonitising these videos, ad these specific flags to the videos and then let the advertiser when he partners up with youtube, chose what flags he can live with, what flags he decides to be okay with and what not. Basically the advertisers say "I am okay with videos with swearing or mild nudity, but I am not okay when it includes the wrinkly McNugget face of Donald Trump". This way both sides will profit. One will not lose advertisers, and the other can target his ads even more specific.

    That same system feeds me ads for products that I do not like, want or need. Stuff way out of my price range. And for products that I am unable to use. I am legally blind, but they keep trying to sell me cars. Quite comical really. That is why it is called “artificial” intelligence. Sounds rather stupid to me.

    • @cyqry
      @cyqry Před 6 lety +2

      There are already a lot of platforms out there... and its not exactly difficult to add a video-player element to your own website if you run one, with the only major issue being storage space.
      Only reason people remain on CZcams is because its well-known and, as much as you say you'll follow the creator, most are too lazy to go to another website... its why stuff like Patreon aren't viable just yet, people are just too lazy to go to it half the time.

      Nah, CZcams is plenty profitable as far as this kind of service goes. It's estimated that Google has already made many billions off it. For every ad watched, CZcams is taking a cut of that revenue. And with the scale of CZcams, I can imagine advertisers pay a fortune to get their ads shown on this platform. Of course, running a service like this is extremely expensive, and the only reason why professional analysts think CZcams makes money is because it's owned by Google, or Alphabet. If some other smaller company tried their luck at making a CZcams, it would almost certainly lose a ton of money, simply because they're not globally recognized as THE site for sharing videos. You can find all this with a quick Google search for 'CZcams revenues for Google', that also helps fund Google's operations with some more advertisement money.
      Although, they did just introduce CZcams Red and CZcams TV, which are additional sources of income for CZcams. I'm not saying CZcams made a lot of money beforehand, but it was most likely breaking even and making a bit extra on top, but on top of that, it's the brand that helps make a bigger name for Google and keep people on their platform.

      @VluggeJapie59 Před 5 lety +2

      The only problem is that CZcams isn't really profitable. Google mostly keeps it so that it can hold on to it's marked share and for brand purposes. But you won't see a company invest millions in a service that even if it is successful and even if it can take over youtube won't even make you that much money.

    I made a video playing a Hasbro game with my sister. It got demonetized. Along with some other videos, one that had over 1 million views and was well received (and suddenly got suppressed down to 0 views). I guess they unleashed it on Japan last month/this month. I feel your pain!!! (Appeal worked, but they are not putting ads on the video anyhow, and they still are not promoting it). Since we speak Japanese in our videos, and our Japanese is non-native, I wonder if they are using voice recognition and, well, yeah....
