44463The Café<p>&nbsp;</p> <blockquote rel="ThatDudeintheHoodie" style="display: inline-block !important;"><strong>ThatDudeintheHoodie wrote :</strong> <p><em>They actually brought it on themselves. They were bragging about having kids content and attracting kids to the main youtube site, not the kids one.&nbsp;</em></p> <br /> <blockquote rel="Benjanime" style="display: inline-block !important;"><em><strong>Benjanime wrote :</strong></em><br /> &nbsp; <p><em><em>it still bothers me how the admins behind youtube only just started supporting COPPA and its laws against the freedom of content creators on the site. i just started doing toy figure unboxing videos and the news was announced shortly after i&#39;d done my first video.</em></em></p> <br /> <br /> <br /> <em><strong>-end quote</strong></em></blockquote> <br /> <p><em>&nbsp;</em></p> <br /> <strong>-end quote&nbsp; </strong></blockquote> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>You&#39;re absolutely correct. All this started with a lie&nbsp;told when the FTC started asking questions.<br /> <br /> Both Google and YouTube promoted several child-directed channels. YouTube marketed itself as a top destination for kids in presentations to makers of popular children&rsquo;s products. For example, Google and YouTube told&nbsp;<strong>Mattel</strong>&nbsp;that, &quot;YouTube is a leader in reaching children (ages 6 to 11) against top TV channels&rdquo;.&nbsp;<strong>Hasbro</strong>&nbsp;was told, &quot;YouTube is the #1 website regularly visited by kids.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> But when confronted by the FTC, YouTube responded that it did not have users younger than 13 on its platform and therefore channels on its platform did not need to comply with COPPA.<br /> <br /> Eighteen, (18!), privacy and consumer-protection groups, like the&nbsp;<strong>Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood</strong>&nbsp;and the&nbsp;<strong>Center for Digital Democracy</strong>, filed a joint complaint with the Federal Trade Commission asking it to crack down on YouTube&#39;s data collection practices with kids.<br /> <br /> <br /> No matter how much Google and YouTube lied, my opinion is that nothing can transfer parental responsibilities from parents to corporations.&nbsp;Parents who allow children unsupervised access online can&#39;t point the finger at anyone, but themselves.</p> eddstarrNov 30, 2019View
44462Flash being discontinued in 2020<p>The videos themselves aren&#39;t going anywhere. I&#39;m not sure what will be necessary to make them playable when Flash is dumped, but we&#39;ll&nbsp;figure something out.</p> <blockquote rel="Hadley" style="display: inline-block !important;"><strong>Hadley wrote :</strong> <p><em>Are there any plans to convert the flash videos into another format?

44461Rush (Progressive Rock band from back in the 1970's to the late 2010's)<p>Rush seems to be one of those bands that have people divided to extremes. Most people either love them or despise them.&nbsp;</p> Vaporman87Nov 30, 2019View
44460The Café<p>I dunno. Somehow, I think they&#39;ll somehow keep it going. This show is practically invulnerable to cancellation.</p> <p>Speaking of Fox shows, I don&#39;t know how many here have seen Party of Five (I know Pikachulover did.) but they&#39;re bringing a reboot to Freeform.</p> <div data-oembed-url="https://www.upi.com/Entertainment_News/TV/2019/11/27/Party-of-Five-stars-assemble-in-trailer-for-Freeform-reboot/4641574878028/"> <div style="margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; margin-top:0px; max-width:320px"><!-- You're using demo endpoint of Iframely API commercially.

44459Flash being discontinued in 2020<p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Homestar Runner is currently in the process of doing that</p> <p>(Homestar Runner is a cult flash cartoon that mostly pokes fun of or pays homage to lots of cult classic to obscure retro stuff. It&#39;s pretty much the &#39;Member Berries (if &#39;Member Berries were legit no so ironically mainstream hipsters)&nbsp;of the early 2000&#39;s before those were invented and before there was even a Nostalgia Market like there is now. It stars this dude who is an athlete with a speech impediment who makes weird statements and his Mexican wrestler friend Strongbad. Most of the episodes are free on YouTube)</p> RetroSnob88Nov 30, 2019View
