On this episode of Atari Newsline, I bring you a special edition: "The Dirty Truth About YouTube." In the past week since my entire YouTube channel was taken down that I literally slaved over for 6 years, I have learned A LOT. Many not so great, some that may be helpful for subscribers and content creators alike on the platform. So what have I uncovered? I share tips that YOU should need to know if you're consuming or creating content on YouTube. Plus: KPO's video on YouTube titled 'It's Time To Sue YouTube' really caught my attention today. I show you a clip of the video, as well, to illustrate my point that in YouTube land, we're all slaves, cranking out money for the big machine named Google and it's mostly AI staff.Subscribe, Like & Comment!Thanks for watching!BCB***Catch me on Rumble !
