You Tube 05.24

I’m shocked by You Tube’s attitude. Apparently children/ youngsters are uploading videos recorded on their mobile phones of bullying or fighting to You Tube.

YT doesn’t see this as a problem and acuses the police of wanting to enforce censorship of other people’s right to expression.

As a teacher, I’m shocked. No school is permitted to tolerate bullying or fighting in any of its forms. Every teacher is obliged to teach citizenship to try to teach our kids some values and morals. And here You Tube can say that prevent people from using these videos as entertainment amounts to the supression of civil rights!

My goodness.

hey there! i havent seen these videos but this is appaling. yes, people have a right to post whatever they like, but what has our world come to where this is what kids are choosing to post?! its like they’re not even afriad of getting in trouble. what snots!

I watched a programme about this-they interviewed one of the people responsible who shrugged his shoulders and said its what people want to watch!!!Sadly,it is what they want to watch as its one of the most popular downloads-that the most frightening thing about it!Imagine all these kids watching fight downloads of other kids,some who fall unconscious,etc.What hope has a teacher got of fighting it
