YouTube's updated violence and profanity restrictions can retroactively restrict videos
Now, all profanities are"treated equally" across the site, meaning words like 'crap' carry the same weight as 'fuck' as far as inappropriate language use goes .Previously, YouTube differentiated bad language based on"levels of severity" , with moderate language being fine to use within a video's first 30 seconds. It would not affect a creator's ad revenue for that video.
While it may be easy to suggest that those uploading content to YouTube now simply wait to start swearing or playing any violent games that could violate these new policies until after seven seconds have passed, several members of the community have been stung by videos being flagged and age-restricted retrospectively - leaving them out of pocket as their older videos will no longer generate income.
"All content available on the platform must follow these guidelines, regardless of when they were uploaded or when the policy was implemented. "You put your entire channel at risk of being analysed and flagged by retroactive application of new policies. In my case it was light-hearted swears. But because I asked for help, I've had a dozen videos limited."
